Le jour de nos fiançailles [English translation]

I take things as they come.

Never asking too many questions.

I'm too strong to be withheld.

I'm a warrior, I'm a centurion.

I love swimming beyond the coral barrier

to look better at the horizon.

I'm not afraid of throwing myself into battle.

Tomorrow, I'll dance to the sound of the cannon.

To the sound of the cannon.

Give me a French kiss, jump onto my neck.

Hold me before I leave.

You know we won't see much of each other.

I'm leaving on the day of our engagement.

I want to remember it, I want to celebrate it.

Let's not go into details.

I want us to make love like crazy.

I'm leaving on the day of our engagement.

The day of our engagement.

I believed I was on the good side.

The ones on the other were mistaken.

Anyways, that's what everyone said

when she opened her big mouth.

Alive one day, but I'll be dead tomorrow.

My beautiful fiancée will find herself alone.

Find herself alone.

Give me a French kiss, jump onto my neck.

Hold me before I leave.

My parents cry, they feel hate.

They never really understood this war.

Let them talk, they feel so much pain.

With honours, I'm being buried.

Give me a French kiss, jump onto my neck.

Hold me before I leave.

You know we won't see much of each other.
