Lyrics and translation Freddie Mercury - How Can I Go On (alternative piano version)
When
all
the
salt
is
taken
from
the
sea
Lorsque
tout
le
sel
est
retiré
de
la
mer
I
stand
dethroned,
I'm
naked
and
I
bleed
Je
suis
détrôné,
je
suis
nu
et
je
saigne
But
when
your
finger
points
so
savagely
Mais
quand
ton
doigt
pointe
si
sauvagement
Is
anybody
there
to
believe
in
me
Y
a-t-il
quelqu'un
pour
croire
en
moi
To
hear
my
plea
and
take
care
of
me?
Pour
entendre
ma
supplication
et
prendre
soin
de
moi
?
How
can
I
go
on,
from
day
to
day
Comment
puis-je
continuer,
jour
après
jour
Who
can
make
me
strong
in
every
way
Qui
peut
me
rendre
fort
à
tous
points
de
vue
Where
can
I
be
safe,
where
can
I
belong
Où
puis-je
être
en
sécurité,
où
puis-je
trouver
ma
place
In
this
great
big
world
of
sadness
Dans
ce
grand
monde
de
tristesse
How
can
I
forget
those
beautiful
dreams
that
we
shared
Comment
puis-je
oublier
ces
beaux
rêves
que
nous
avons
partagés
They're
lost
and
they're
nowhere
to
be
found
Ils
sont
perdus
et
introuvables
How
can
I
go
on?
Comment
puis-je
continuer
?
Sometimes
I
seem
to
tremble
in
the
dark,
I
cannot
see
Parfois,
je
semble
trembler
dans
l'obscurité,
je
ne
vois
rien
When
people
frighten
me
Quand
les
gens
me
font
peur
I
try
to
hide
myself
so
far
from
the
crowd
J'essaie
de
me
cacher
si
loin
de
la
foule
Is
anybody
there
to
comfort
me
Y
a-t-il
quelqu'un
pour
me
réconforter
Lord,
take
care
of
me
Seigneur,
prends
soin
de
moi
How
can
I
go
on
(how
