Je marche vers les ténébres
I walk towards the shadows
Vers l'horizon funeste
Towards the grim horizon
Mais la vie qui m'entoure et me baigne
But the life that surrounds me and bathes me
Me dit quand même ça vaut la peine
Still tells me it's worth it
Et qui peut se mouvoir
And who can move
Dans ce convoi de larmes?
In this convoy of tears?
Je te dédie ma mort
I dedicate my death to you
Et je saigne, saigne encore
And I bleed, bleed again
Mais la bataille est belle
But the battle is beautiful
Celle de l'amour
This one of love
Disperse tout
Scattered all around
La bataille est celle
The battle is the one
De longs, longs jours
Of long, long days
Mon amour
My love
L'on peut se retourner
We can turn around
Mais le ruisseau ressemble à l'eau
But the stream resembles the water
Quand tu pars
When you leave
Il n'en reste qu'un bleu noir
Only one dark blue remains
Je tombe en défaillance
I'm falling into weakness
Vienne ma délivrance
Come, my deliverance
Me dit quand même qu'au fond de ma peine
Still tell me that deep down in my sorrow
Survit un cœur couleur vermeille
Survives a heart of crimson hue
Qui bat car la bataille est belle
That beats because the battle is beautiful
Celle de l'amour
That of love
Disperse tout
Scatters everything
La bataille est celle
The battle is that one
De longs, longs jours
Of long, long days
Mon amour
My love
Mais la bataille est belle
But the battle is beautiful
Celle de l'amour
That of love
Disperse tout
Spread it all out
La bataille est celle
The battle is this one
De longs, longs jours
Of long, long days
Mon amour
My love
