Le clown [English translation]

The clown is tired of playing the clown tonight

And he's had enough of hiding his face

He has made too many people laugh - and the children

Who all come to applaud as he bleeds

Tonight, I no longer play the divine comedy

Tonight I'm stark naked in the midst of my life

Tonight, the clown is afraid of being all alone, he cries

Tonight, he becomes a man again and his grief is

Tonight, he is human

Tonight, in front of you he is afraid

He's seen cities, he made tours

But what remains of love after the laughter.

The night has come, the crowd departs*,

And I am stark naked in the midst of my life

Never mind the cheers, they do not replace the

Gestures or words that you had for me

Tonight, the clown is afraid of being all alone, he cries

Tonight, he becomes a man again and his destiny is

Tonight, it is human

Tonight, in front of you he is afraid
