Genius English Translations
Philémon Cimon - Moi j’ai confiance (English Translation)
Me I'm confident that we can go out
That we can still walk
Me I'm confident that we can talk
That we can be fine outside
Me I want to be alive
To speak even louder
And to be with my friends who tell me
About the rivers of the Grand Nord
The great torrents that are coming
To lift up, to sink the fields
To soak the teeth, to drown the tears
Which cover are parents
To soak the fear of touch
Which gives little by asking
To make a mess in the beds
Which cry to be dead from the sulking

Come take my hand, I give you mine
Without sorrow, we go, we'll go further
There's no point in staring at the traces
Behind our footprints on the thin glass
I've finally found my ice skates
Put yours on, I'll give you a hand
Life is beautiful once I'm with her
Warm in her arms, I'm no longer scared of her
Warm in her arms, even if we freeze
Naked with her, I offer you my wings
I offer you the sky
With her
I offer you the sky
I finally saw
The crossing of paths

Me I'm confident that we can love
Despite the storms, despite
The end of the world which is coming
To drown the sick hearts
Me I'm confident that we can walk
To the next beach
Make a boat, put a sail on it
And then go out to sea
I was never
So confident as today
Despite the wind, the sharks
And the white demons
The sea is crazy, but with the two of us
I'm not scared I smile
The sea breaks and ravages
And the light springs up

Come take my hand
I give you mine
We love each other, we leave
We are going further
We must hurry
Dent the ice
Everything is more beautiful
Once in front of it
I found gold in my carcass
Come take my hand and I'll kiss you
Life is beautiful
Once I'm with her
Warm in her arms
Under her parasol
Warm in her arms
Even when we freeze
Naked with her
I offer you my wings
I offer you the sky
With her
I offer you the sky
I finally saw
The crossing of paths
And everything will be alright
