Le Temps [English translation]

Refrain

I am tired

of seeing that time has erased nothing

what should i do to make up for?

(For) all the mistakes

that time,time,time will not erase

Couplet 1

I am not sure that I love myself

I am even convinced

Difficult to ask (for) forgiveness

So I find excuses to myself

And I am trying to think of the old happiness

And often,I remember that I can't recall it

I have seen you coming out of my life and I have erased you

Time and rancor* are only keeping us in distance

time will erase nothing and will not appease me

If my mother dies with grudges against me

nothing changes

neither the failures,nor the errors ,I have the same fear

as it was like before

a stone as a heart

a laughter as a tear

And the consciousness elsewhere from here

Nothing changes

And that,despite seconds and hours

alone in the world ana according to trials

we never look at success like we look at our defeats

Time does not erase our regrets,he carries us away

Couplet 2

Running after the time to cover up my mistakes

We do not see the time spent,but the time passes to another thing

Tired of being a man,prisoner of his thoughts

I want to be a man who stops to think about it

start from scratch,it is just a mirage

learning from my mistakes ,I become wiser

I am planning more the future,my lifetime is distorted

are the tears that cleanse the wounded hearts

I am moving forward

I do not promise for tomorrow,but I move on with a view to do

better than yesterday

I am moving forward'

Time remains neutral from the cradle to the grave

no matter what happens,I am moving forward

time saw our birth,time saw us growing up

we will die assuming the mistakes of life
