Je n'oublierai jamais [English translation]

You can do anything to me

Tear my flesh

Drain my blood

Tear me apart piece1 by piece

The pieces of my life

Torment me on earth

Scratch out my memory

The traces of the past

I will never forget

I will never forget

Her body between your hands

Trampled, torn

And me there, disobedient

Incapable and pinned down

To the hands of your torture

To the hands of sacrifice

Lost for her

You can tell me anything

That I am already dead

And that I am going to rot

Withered from the sun

A gift for the vultures

Open it, your mouth

You will shatter one day

Like cowards shatter

I will never forget

I will never forget

That it was thanks to her

That I lived my life

And that I loved only her

And what she said to me

That she loved only me

That she fought for me

And that she died

You can change everything

The country, the prison

The face and the name

The faith and the god

And even change the skin

A friend somewhere

Who will have my memory

And find you one day

I will never forget

I will never forget

Never
