L'amour à la machine [English translation]

Put our love in a washing machine,

boil it

to see if the original colours

can be back.

Can bleach restore

the feelings

to this pristine white we used to think would last

forever?

To see again the rosy hue

of your cheek now gone so pallid,

the blue our kisses were at first,

lost into the sky...

Put our love in a washing machine,

boil it

to see if the original colours

can be back.

Can bleach restore

the feelings

to this pristine white we used to think would last

forever?

Matisse, love is a hard blue,

cuddling is a brittle red.

Life's sun gives them a beating,

and so they fade.

Come on! To the washing!

Red1 to topple the destitution

of our nice little grandads,

Black hands in kids' blond hair2

all around the world.

Put our love in a washing machine,

boil it

to see if the original colours

can be back.

Can bleach restore

the feelings

to this pristine white we used to think would last

forever?

Come on! To the washing!

1. as the communist flag2. "boucles blondes" (blond curls) is a fixed expression for "sweet little kids"
