Lyrics and translation Insomnium - The Harrowing Years (Across the Dark)
This
I
have
learnt:
J'ai
appris
ça :
World
forces
all
of
us
down
Le
monde
nous
abat
tous
The
fleeing
years
bend
our
backs
Les
années
qui
s'enfuient
nous
courbent
le
dos
Love
but
smears
our
hearts
L'amour
ne
fait
que
maculer
nos
cœurs
Here
I
now
lie
still
like
a
broken
bow
Maintenant,
je
reste
immobile
comme
un
arc
brisé
Soul
sullen
and
rigid
with
the
will
to
die
L'âme
maussade
et
rigide
avec
la
volonté
de
mourir
Sighing
after
the
days
long
since
gone
Soupirant
après
les
jours
d'antan
Cursing
every
step
on
this
ill-fated
trail
Maudisant
chaque
pas
sur
ce
chemin
maudit
"In
vain
I
try
to
forget
- In
vain
I
try
to
forgive
« En
vain
j'essaie
d'oublier -
En
vain
j'essaie
de
pardonner
Black
bird
from
evening
sky
- raven
from
heaths
of
night
Oiseau
noir
du
ciel
du
soir -
Corbeau
des
landes
de
la
nuit
Come
and
take
my
cares
- carry
away
the
grief
Viens
et
prends
mes
soucis -
Emporte
le
chagrin
Bereave
me
of
my
woes
- rend
off
these
earthly
throes
Délivre-moi
de
mes
malheurs -
Déchire
ces
douleurs
terrestres
Fly
them
to
deepest
lakes
- to
the
starlit
shores"
Emmène-les
aux
lacs
les
plus
profonds -
Aux
rives
étoilées »
This
I
have
learnt:
J'ai
appris
ça :
Even
the
sweetest
wine
turns
to
sour
Même
le
vin
le
plus
doux
tourne
au
vinaigre
We
work
our
fingers
to
the
bone
Nous
travaillons
nos
doigts
jusqu'à
l'os
All
our
efforts
of
no
avail
Tous
nos
efforts
sont
inutiles
Here
we
all
are
but
troubled
guests
Nous
ne
sommes
ici
que
des
invités
troublés
On
darkling
earth
Sur
une
terre
sombre
Lost
echoes
that
pine
away
Échos
perdus
qui
s'étiolent
Into
the
dusk
Dans
la
pénombre
Nothing
more
than
the
wind
to
rely
on
Rien
de
plus
que
le
vent
sur
lequel
compter
Nothing
more
than
the
death
Rien
de
plus
que
la
mort
to
comfort
us
in
the
end
pour
nous
réconforter
à
la
fin
This
I
have
heard:
J'ai
entendu
dire :
All
ends
in
serene
sleep
Tout
finit
dans
un
sommeil
serein
All
these
sorrows
are
washed
away
Tous
ces
chagrins
sont
emportés
As
we
lapse
into
the
night
Alors
que
nous
sombrons
dans
la
nuit
But
I
know
it's
a
lie
Mais
je
sais
que
c'est
un
mensonge
