Au milieu de ma vie [English translation]

I didn’t see the time pass by

Time doesn’t wait for us

Insolent like a kite

We slip between its fingers

I always looked ahead

Without ever turning around

I had so much love to give

And the world was so big, so big

In my childlike eyes

I’ve reached the middle of my life

How do I take the turning point

When all the summits are conquered

What will be the other slope

One day I’ll leave calmly

In my island under the wind

To see the spinning of time that spins

So soft, so soft, so softly

I don’t see life as I did before

When everything seemed so easy

To see a child grow up

It’s so strong and so fragile

I always looked ahead

Without ever turning around

I had so much love to give

And the world was so big

So much love, so much love

In my childlike heart

I didn’t see the time pass by
