Sous le soleil exactement [English translation]

A precise point under the Tropic

Of Capricorn or of Cancer

Since then, I've forgotten which one

Under the sun, exactly.

Not by the side, not "anywhere"

Under the sun, under the sun

Exactly, right underneath.

In what country, in what district?

Was it on the sea coast

Since then, I've forgotten which

Under the sun, exactly.

Not by the side, not "anywhere"

Under the sun, under sun

Exactly, right underneath.

Was it New Mexico

Towards Cape Horn

Towards Cape Verde

Was it on an archipelago?

Under the sun, exactly.

Not next to it, not "anywhere"

Under the sun, under the sun

Exactly, right underneath.

Surely it must be an erotic dream

That I dream with my eyes open

However, what if it was real?

Under the sun, exactly.

Not by the side, not "anywhere"

Under the sun, under the sun

Exactly, right underneath.
