Au cœur de la Terre [English translation]

Not so long ago

I went

deep down the Earth.

I thought I would find

my lost love there

like a lonely diamond.

I won't tell you

what I saw there

deep down the Earth

All the elusive dreams

of mankind

flashed before my eyes

and I found the key

of paradise lost.

Deep down the Earth

I found treasure island

burried beneath the sea

on a bed of golden sand.

Deep down the Earth

I have seen lost cities,

as for my lost love

I never found it.

I rode the horses

of the conquistadores

deep down the Earth

And I crossed swords

with Nabuchodonosor's

armies

I went through wars,

stepped over bodies

that had turned to stone

I crossed borders

that no longer exist

and I even met

a couple of dinosaurs

who give you their regards

Deep down the Earth

I found a green tree

upside down

it had turned to glass

I recognized it as the tree

of the forbidden fruit,

as for my lost love

I never found it.

Deep down the Earth

I found a meteor.

Why does its light

still singe my body?

Now was this meteor

Earth's very core?

Or maybe it was

my lost love?
