Soudain, j'entre dans la lumière
Suddenly, I step into the light
Le souffle court
Breathless
Le cœur, cœur battant
The heart, a beating heart
Dans le noir, il y a ce cœur ardent
In the dark, there's this burning heart
Qui m'attend
That waits for me
Depuis longtemps
For a long time
Qui a saisi l'insaisissable
That has grasped the ungraspable
La magie de l'inévitable
The magic of the inevitable
Qui sait déjà tout de ma vie
That already knows everything about my life
Sans qu'un mot ne soit jamais dit
Without a word ever being said
Et, puis
And then
Relativité de l'espace
Relativity of space
Et relativité du temps
And relativity of time
Qui nous relie et qui dépasse
That connects us and transcends
L'intensité des sentiments
The intensity of feelings
Et, puis
And then
Soudain, j'entre dans la lumière
Suddenly, I step into the light
Le souffle court
Breath short
Le cœur, cœur battant
The heart, heart beating
Il y a ce soir un cœur ardent
Tonight there is a burning heart
Qui m'entend
Who hears me
Qui m'attend
Who waits for me
