An allée under the stars

One thousand metre tall trees

One thousand year old

An allée under the stars

Time flows and time drips

Time flows and time drips

And time is an ocean

By which I can sit

Soupe de courge au thym

Soupe de courge au thym

Trois jours de pluie en été

 Quand serai-je plus sage ?

Steel returns to earth

Steel returns to earth

The burning lands smoke out words

Blood returns to earth

Les fleurs dancent et meurent

Les rideaux gonflés

La maison ne bouge jamais

Les fleurs dancent et meurent

Spring is lost for me

The roots of my heart

Have grown deep in frozen ground

Spring is lost for me

Early morning sun

 Reality check

 My heart jumps through the window

Early morning sun

Closed windows at night

Closed windows at night

Talk the stern language of rain

Give depth to darkness

A lesson in life

A lesson in life

In the quivering shade

Of climbing vine shoots

Looking straight at me

Looking straight at me

A raven on the statue

Of a Greek goddess

Ne pas oublier

Ne pas oublier

À l'ombre d'un magnolia

D'apprendre à mourir

Entre les bouleaux

Le vol silencieux

D'un oiseau noir louvoyant  

Entre les bouleaux

Au bord du canal

Vois le saule pleureur

Et sa danse immobile

Au bord du canal

Ultraviolet

Dancing purple spots 

Spring fever and dry flowers

Ultraviolet

With fish and spices

 Green and red peppers

Mediterranean soup

With fish and spices

 

Dull and grey as faith

Dull and grey as faith

Thick and slow as frozen air

My early mornings

On a crust on ice

Slowly we creep to 
The other side of winter
On a crust on ice

I walk through winter

Blow, wind, raise spirals

I don't feel cold anymore

I walk through winter

Know how to listen

Know how to listen

To the winter long silence

 You will learn to sing
