La Demeure d'un ciel [English translation]

We met

at the bottom of the steps

of the palace,

all the way at the bottom of the icy staircase

Your feet danced,

bare on the snow,

and you were singing that tune full of malice and grace

Take off

your shoes now

and put some

balls of clouds on your feet,

because, from now on, this is

the home of a paradise,

the home of a paradise

We went up

all the steps

of the palace

all the way to the top of the icy staircase

A naïve man

was waiting for us,

and he married us

among the wild birds

Take off

your shoes now

and put some

balls of clouds on your feet,

because, from now on, this is

the home of a paradise,

the home of a paradise
