La Terre tournera sans nous [English translation]

what do we believe , what do we hope for ?

the earth, it will turn without us

without our madness, our crazy dreams

and without this world that was us

what did we hope , did we believe in?

love doesn't owe us anything

as for us, and for the others

love goes, love doesn't care

why always love without an end

other suns, other mornings?

winter is not a spring

we are not giants

who can make fun of time

why dream about other lives

why dream about symphonies ,

at least one day; i believe

must hold on to the melody

decide what to do with his life

what do we believe, what do we want?

misfortune is fallen on us

nothing left, nothing at all

of this kingdom which was us

Yet , though it was not so crazy

This happiness was good to us,

We had to keep it, that's all,

Just for us , just for us .

What we believe , what we want?

Love owes us nothing

And others like us,

The earth rotates , it will turn without us
