Je veux vivre [English translation]

I want to live, live

My sea has dried up, dried up

I want to live to devour all the books

I want to live to know the children

Of my grandchildren, to reach 100 years

To reach 1000 years, to be happy and free

I want to live to run on the shore

I want to live to embrace my dreams

To embrace my days, to know love

And the intoxicating hours, I want to live

[Chorus x2]

I want to live all the joys of the earth

I want to live and traverse the seas

I want to live to circle the planet

Without leaving a bit, I want to see all the cities

Dive from all the islands that their sky delivers me

[Chorus x2]

I want to live to swallow the world

I want to live worlds that shiver

With thousands of countries and millions of people

A billion stories, I want to be able to follow them

I want to live without ever dozing

I want to live without ever betraying myself

So that each season recolours my passions

To devour the time that ceases to follow me

I want to live...

My sea has dried up...

So that when death comes for me, a spell

It can never, never uproot all that I have planted

All that I have sown will make me live on

[Chorus x2]
