Te garder près de moi [English translation]

Our loves come undone

Everything gets erased

Rushed by the passing time

When in the distance

In a murmur

Comes the song of the very old Indian

"Adventure enthusiasts

Respect fate"

I want to keep you next to me

Enamored body

Traveler

Your mind

Plays like a whirling dervish1

The lovers disheveled by the dance

Of the holy torment

Sing to the morning

Prisoners of fate

I want to keep you next to me

Memories

Heavy secrets

Your whispers slip

Into our armors

Would you like to throw

Your legs around my waist again

I swear to you

I don't care about fate

I want to keep you next to me
