Deux ils, deux elles [English translation]

Just like a winter sky

To its clear nights and gives in,

Just like a great thunder

Dies as soon as it rings out

Just like a clear spring1

Opens itself to the sea and then merges with it,

Just like a piece of flesh

Makes men out of us

When two 'he' touch one another,

All our senses remember

That a kiss turns two beings

Into two souls bound together, almost eternal

When two 'she' touch one another,

Everything in us awakes

It obvious that love,

This time, changes everything

As if inseparable,

They are roots and huge trees

When winds and storms

Are taunting, persisting

The caravans go by,

The dogs are barking, weary

To deliver the secrets

And the hate moves around

When two 'he' touch one another,

All our senses remember

That a kiss turns two beings

Into two souls bound together, almost eternal

When two 'she' touch one another,

Everything in us awakes

It obvious that love,

This time, changes everything

When two 'she' touch one another,

Everything in us awakes

It obvious that love,

This time, changes everything

Twin souls are immortal,

Way beyond 'he' or 'she'
