Accusée, levez-vous ! [English translation]

Defendant, please rise!

In a while my judges will

Read my punishment aloud,

But now I don't care anymore.

Defendant, please rise!

I hear, from an ever increasing distance

Words that modify my destiny

But these don't affect me.

Those strangers dressed in black

I still seem to hear them

No, none of them could understand

How one could kill for love

Very soon those strangers will

Play my life heads or tails.

Whatever they may say or do

I shall not add a single word.

Defendant, please rise!

And slowly I sit up

Lonely in the midst of these people

Who are more impatient than myself

To know whether my life is at stake

Or else if

My fate will be different

If I'm forced to live anew.

Those strangers dressed in black

I still seem to hear them

No, none of them could understand

How one could kill for love

From now on nothing matters

In this world without my love,

And only remains a long silence

Filled with tears and regrets.

And yet I confess

I am willing to thank

All those who will convict me

If I am doomed to death.

At the gates of eternity

I'll be able to meet

The one I love for ever

The one who waits for me, I know

I know it, I know it.
