Refrain [English translation]

Love song, ou ou ou ou

Song, color of the sky, perfume of my 20 years of being alive

Garden full of sunshine where I ran as a child

Everywhere, I looked for my long-lost lover

Searching on the paths where you held my hand

The days came and went, and we have grown up

Love has hurt us, time has healed us

But alone and without the springtime

I run in vain through the woods and the fields

Say, remember our love from another time

The years pass in a flurry of wings

And the rain drips on the rooftops of my worries

Where have the ships gone

Stealing away my heart, bringing my dreams towards oblivion?

I would have wanted you to come back, like in old times

Bringing flowers to my window

And your youth into my home

Song, color of the sky, regrets of my 20 years of being alive

Chagrin, melancholy to no longer be a child

But alone and far from you, on paths where you are not

I go, crying for my love of 20 years
