Un peu plus haut, un peu plus loin [English translation]

A little higher, a little further

I want to go a little further

I want to see how it is up there

Keep my arm, hold my hand

A little higher, a little further

I want to go even further

Leave my arm but hold my hand

I will not go further than it is necessary

Still a step, still a jump

A storm and a brook

Beware, beware, I released your hand

Wait for me down there, I will return

Still a step, a small step

Still a jump and I am there

Up there if I do not fall

Not, I am there, I do not fall

It is beautiful, it is beautiful

If you saw the world at the bottom, over there

It is beautiful, it is beautiful

The sea smaller than oneself

But you do not see me

A little further, a little more lonely

I do not want to be far all alone

Come to see here how we are beautiful

When we are high, how we are beautiful

A little higher, a little further

I cannot hold your hand anymore

Tell me how I could go up

How to go down without falling

A little further, a little more strong

Still a jump, still on try

I would like to hold you my arms

I am too high, you are too low

Still a step, a small step

You are too far, I love you

Good-bye, good-bye, I will return

If I go down again without falling

It is beautiful, it is beautiful

If you saw the world at the bottom over there

It is beautiful, it is beautiful

The sea smaller than oneself

But you do not see it

A little higher, a little further

I will go even further

Perhaps although a little higher

I will find other ways
