Lyrics
Ce soir sans doute mon âme,
Asservie, usée par les bas chagrins,
Sentira le besoin de fuir sa prison de chair.
Très loin de nous, de notre temps,
Elle s’en tra rejoindre les étoiles.
Elles lui parleront de sa propre existence
En des mots purs et silencieux,
Et lui montreront un chemin
Menant vers les havres inconnus
Reliant ciel et terre.
Ces contrées lontaines,
Où les hautes herbes dans les champs vermeils
A jamais valsent avec la lumière;
Où peuvent librement errer
Tous les souvenirs de nos vies sur Terre
Que le temps vengeur aura voulu effacer.
Lyrics translation
Tonight probably my soul,
Enslaved, worn out by low sorrows,
Will feel the need to flee his prison of flesh.
Very far from us, from our time,
She's gone to the stars.
They will tell him about his own existence
In pure and silent words,
And will show him a way
Leading to unknown havens
Connecting heaven and Earth.
These distant lands,
Where the tall grasses in the red fields
Never waltz with the light;
Where can freely roam
All the memories of our lives on Earth
That the vengeful time will have wanted to erase.
