L'homme en noir [English translation]

Sound of boots

The man has arrived

Sound of boots

They stared each other

Without saying a word

A man in black

Who was looking for him

He didn't say anything, he got up

Sound of boots

A defying stare

Head high, he took his shotgun

Without saying a word this man in black

He followed him and in the street,

They have gone

Every eyes are on them

They're going to fight

Oh my God !

One of them is going to die

Nothing can stop them

The two of them

They will fight

Oh my God,

Have pity for him

Because I love him

Please

Make that he comes back to me

Please

On the plaza

They are ready to shoot

Face to face

What's going to happen ?

Whatever we may do

The games are done

I know

This man in black

Wants to kill him

Every eyes on them are fixed

And my heart is going to break

I pray for him

So that he comes back to me

So that he comes back to me

He killed him...
