La mer et l'enfant [English translation]

I am the mother*, you are the child

No connection is wiser

You are the sand, me the ocean

You are my only shore

I cover you every moment

With my waves of passion

Like a sea of sentiments

And affection

With all my tenderness

My waves caress you

Like a child facing the sea

Smiling and peaceful

You find in me some landmarks

Our dream is realized

Don't cry anymore, I reassure you

Because it's the sea that erases

The scars and the wounds

Written in the sand on the surface

I am the mother, you are the child

No connection is stronger

You are my world, me the ocean

You are my only surroundings

I can become erratic

I can put myself in blood

And play the furious storm

Who defends you

With all my privileges

My waves protect you

Like a child facing the sea

Smiling and peaceful

You find in me some landmarks

Our dream is realized

Don't cry anymore, I reassure you

Because it's the sea that erases

The scars and the wounds

Written in the sand on the surface

Like a child facing the sea

Smiling and peaceful

You find in me some landmarks

Our dream is realized

Don't cry anymore, I reassure you

Because it's the sea that erases

The scars and the wounds

Written in the sand on the surface
