Translation of the song lyrics Aux sombres héros de l'amer - Noir Désir

Aux sombres héros de l'amer (original)

Aux sombres hros de l’amer
Qui ont s traverser les ocans du vide
A la mmoire de nos frres
Dont les sanglots si longs faisaient couler l’acide
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
(BIS)
Tout part toujours dans les flots
Au fond des nuits sereines
Ne vois-tu rien venir?
Les naufrags et leurs peines qui jetaient l’encre ici
Et arrtaient d’crire…
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
(BIS)
Ami, qu’on crve d’une absence
Ou qu’on crve un abcs
C’est le poison qui coule
Certains nageaient sous les lignes de flottaison intimes
A l’intrieur des foules
Aux sombres hros de l’amer
Qui ont s traverser les ocans du vide
A la mmoire de nos frres
Dont les sanglots si longs faisaient couler l’acide…
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
(BIS)

Aux sombres héros de l'amer (translation)

To the dark heroes of bitter
Who have crossed oceans of emptiness
In memory of our brothers
Whose sobs so long made the acid flow
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
(BIS)
Everything always leaves in the waves
Deep in the serene nights
Do you see nothing coming?
The shipwrecks and their sorrows that cast ink here
And stopped writing...
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
(BIS)
Friend, that we die of an absence
Or that we burst an abs
It's the poison that flows
Some swam below the intimate waterlines
Inside the crowds
To the dark heroes of bitter
Who have crossed oceans of emptiness
In memory of our brothers
Whose sobs so long made the acid flow...
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
(BIS)
