Parce qu'on sait jamais [English translation]

So many easy pleasures,

Childish desires

(that) keep us all here under.

Ready for any pie /deal

Yet when we must die

We become believers

As one never knows

We cast a glance upwards

If there's a hereafter

As least, saving our souls/bones

As one never knows

If there's a hereafter

Capable of the worst, of all mea culpas

Of all false pieties/times

Who could still ask: who is (the real) Saint Thomas?

But when your hour strikes...

And so, we drop everything

To (come up and )get a forgiving

For having believed so little yet asked for a redeem

Chorus
