Avant la haine [English translation]

Do you know, handsome,

that even the brightest

loves go dull ?

The dirty day by day sun

torments them.

I've got a perfect idea

to avoid the unbearable.

Before the hatred,

before the blows,

be they from whistles or whips.

Before the sorrow

and weariness,

please let's end it.

No, I kiss you

and (the feeling) disappears.

See,

I'm not so easy to get rid of.

You thought

you could get away with it

leaving me on the tune

of the doomed true love.

But, you see, I like

the tempests of the unevitable better

than your little shabby idea.

Before the hatred,

before the blows,

be they from whistles or whips.

Before the sorrow

and weariness,

please let's end it.

No, you kiss me

and (the feeling) disappears.

I can see,

You're not so easy to get rid of.

I could spare you the worst,

but the best is yet to come.

etc...
