Et moi je chante [English translation]

I see a train coming

On a cloud from the past

I see a hand holding flowers

But it has no fingers

I see a dog dying

From wanting to keep up with my pace

I see the winter smiling

To the blue years of afterlife

I hear the rain fall

In the garden of magicians

I hear symphonies

Played by a thousand musicians

I hear a grey bird screaming

To the wind in the distance

I hear my life crying

Stuck in my memory without future

I see cities sink

In the middle of hidden oceans

I see eyes shining

In the silence of great rocks

I see a set of skittles

That I can't topple

I see a little girl

Buried at the mirror of passing years

And I, I sing, I sing, I sing

It's the only thing I can do, I sing !

With all my despair I sing,

I am happy

And I, I sing, I sing, I sing

It's the only thing I can do, I sing !

With all my despair I sing,

I am happy

I hear the rain fall

In the garden of magicians

I hear symphonies

Played by a thousand musicians

I hear a grey bird screaming

To the wind in the distance

I hear my life crying

Stuck in my memory without future

I hear an old drum

sounding the charge of statues

I hear a cry of love

That I never recognised

I hear the last days

Pounding my bare head to death

I hear a bard sing

About the time that will not come back

And I, I sing, I sing, I sing

It's the only thing I can do, I sing !

With all my despair I sing,

I am happy

And I, I sing, I sing, I sing

It's the only thing I can do, I sing !

With all my despair I sing,

I am happy

And I, I sing, I sing, I sing

It's the only thing I can do, I sing !

With all my despair I sing
