Vivre [English translation]

To live by the flow of my streams

Ignore the meaning of ‘tomorrow’

To live straight and unarmed

Copy my life off the color of time

To be nothing but a house

Wide open, transparent and naked

Naked like the truth

Like a white wall a child colors

To live to offer you hope

Like the source is in the palms of our hands

I want to live to sing to you

Live to make your eyes bloom

To be pregnant with a star

Without knowing the number of my years

Live like we write a love song

To people in the future

To be a house of words

An attic of songs for winter

To breathe like an open door

On the vine and the rose bush

To live to offer you hope

Like the source is in the palms of our hands

I want to live to sing to you

Live to make your eyes bloom

I am a true woman

I carried the child in my slender hands

And I live for my lovers

With this body, this badly squared off heart

I am a true woman

I just wanted to say

While passing by your doors

That your dreams are mine
