Rue de Buci [English translation]

Oh, I've cried so much

Far from the restrained times

The intangible day which left

On the tarmac, melancholy

I'm going

And regrets roar

From an idolised outline

She also loves

Going up and down

Rue de Buci

I wonder why

Oh, I've cried so much

On the backs of bare necks

So that never again

Will I cry over you

Thank you, madam

But this gift of the soul needs to be thrown away

As far as possible

For I will never have the strength

To show myself, by pointing my finger at myself1

She also loves

Going up and down

Rue de Buci

I wonder why

On the tarmac

Melancholy

I'm going

And regrets roar

No I will never have the strength

To show myself

Endlessly

Always together

Like two friends

Who look like each other

You and me

We should be

Always together

Come back to the litany

I wonder why

1. This has come out a bit clumsy. "Se montrer" is "to show oneself" or "to appear". "Montrer du doigt" is "to point at".
