Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Rue Princesse by Ycare from French to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Il y a tellement à vivre
There is so much to live
Dans cette rue princesse la nuit
In this princess street at night
Quand dorment les enfants
When the children sleep
Il y a tellement à rire
There is so much to laugh
Quand l'ivresse fait d'un souvenir
When drunkenness makes a memory
Le plus grand des tourments
The greatest torment
Il y a de la jeunesse trop aride
There is youth that is too dry
Pour se contenter des limites
To be content with the limits
Que nous imposent la raison
What does reason impose on us?
Et on a bien le droit aux passions
And we have the right to passions
A l'âpre goût d'une longue pression
Has the bitter taste of a long press
Sur nos cœurs si jeunes en mal de vivre
On our hearts so young aching to live
Puisqu'il n'y a plus de limitation
Since there is no longer any limitation
A la vitesse de propagation
At the speed of propagation
Des gens amoureux de la nuit
People in love with the night
Des battements de cœur en promesse
Heartbeats in promise
Des cris, hurlements, maladresses
Screams, howls, clumsiness
Le bonheur a portée d'un rire
Happiness within reach of a laugh
Un rire pour noyer de tendresse
A laugh to drown in tenderness
Avec pour nulle autre richesse
With no other wealth
Que d'oublier nos souvenirs
Than forget our memories
Rue princesse quand vas tu m'offrir
Rue princess when are you going to offer me
Une ciguë à me faire pâlir
A hemlock that would make me swoon
Et me faire oublier mon nom
And make me forget my name
