Entre le chaos et l'hiver
Between chaos and winter
J'ai tant de vous et de vipères sur la peau
I have so many of you and vipers on my skin
Où vont les silences des rivières?
Where do the silences of the rivers go?
J'ai vu la lagune et l'enfer au repos
I saw the lagoon and hell at rest
Entre la falaise et l'hier
Between the cliff and yesterday
Mon corps étendu sur la pierre, des sanglots
My body lying on the stone, sobs
Où vont les nuances des prières?
Where do the nuances of prayers go?
Attendez-moi
Wait for me
Enchanté de vous connaître, mon écho
Nice to meet you, my echo
Caressez-moi de promesses et de beau
Caress me with promises and beauty
Attendez de disparaître, s'il le faut
Wait to disappear, if necessary
C'est l'océan que je vous laisse

Sachez qu'il y aura d'autres plages, d'autres mots

Pour m'envoyer vos noirs messages
To send me your dark messages
J'attends de vous l'or et l'orage, il le faut
I expect gold and storms from you, I have to
Pour m'imaginer nos voyages
To imagine our travels
Enchanté de vous connaître, mon écho
Nice to meet you, my echo
Caressez-moi de promesses et de beau
Caress me with promises and beauty
Attendez de disparaître, s'il le faut
Wait to disappear, if necessary
