Crépuscule [English translation]

When your body brushed against mine on the ground

The heat of the moments flies away

And burns with an uncertain desire

To take your hand

Under the sun we counted the hours

That wither like flowers

Incandescent like our love

In its course

And the time before

Holds what we caressed

Bare1, our lives, only leave our

Cries far away, gullible, our skins in the twilight

And yet I still hope that the child that I was

Finds finally a bit of peace

Of laughter, of freedom, without end

A beautiful story could not last

This is what we understood by loving each other

On either side, we live without a cause

Or few things

I no longer know if it's our friendship

That was the first to win

Your breath used to leave me without a shiver

Like protection

And the time before

Holds what we caressed

Bare, our lives, only leave our

Cries far away, gullible, our skins in the twilight

And yet I still hope that the child that I was

Finds finally a bit of peace

Of laughter, of freedom, without end

And the time before

Holds what we caressed

Bare, our lives, only leave our

Cries far away, gullible, our skins in the twilight

And yet I still hope that the child that I was

Finds finally a bit of peace

Of laughter, of freedom, without end
