Paroles et traduction Maxime Le Forestier - Notre Vie En Rose

Notre Vie En Rose

Il ne reste plus une feuille aux branches, ni un vêtement sur le dos sali
De la femme brune qui était sortie
De la femme brune et non pas blanche.
Il aura suffi d′un avion qui passe avec un drapeau étoilé dedans
Crachant ses étoiles au-dessus des champs
Semant des nuages sur ses traces.

C'est notre vie en rose que l′on achète ainsi.
Viens, buvons quelque chose puisque c'est loin d'ici.

Il ne reste plus, dans ses bras inertes
Le corps de l′enfant qui dormait′si bien.
Il aura roulé quelques pas plus loin
Serrant dans ses mains des feuilles vertes

Mais n'en parlons plus, ce n′est plus la peine.
Cela ternirait le soleil de mai.
Un Coca-Cola vaut deux vies humaines et nous nous y sommes résignés.

Our Life in Pink

There isn't a single leaf left on the branches, nor a piece of clothing on her soiled back,
Of the brown woman who had gone out,
Of the brown woman, not white.
All it took was an airplane passing by with a star-spangled banner inside,
Spewing its stars over the fields,
Sowing clouds in its wake.

This is our life in pink that we buy this way.
Come, let's drink something since it's far away from here.

There is nothing left in her lifeless arms,
The body of the child who slept so soundly.
He must have rolled a few steps further,
Clutching green leaves in his hands.

But let's not talk about it anymore, it's not worth it.
It would tarnish the May sun.
A Coca-Cola is worth two human lives, and we have resigned ourselves to it.
