Translation of the song lyrics Depth of My Soul - Thievery Corporation, Shana Halligan

Depth of My Soul (original)

Where our world falls to pièces
And the moonlight starts to hide
In a million little splinters
In the corners of our mind
(Où notre monde tombe en pièces
Et le claire de lune commence à disparaître
En un million de petits éclats
Dans les coins de notre esprit)
Where endless colors
They are swallowed by the sun
In a trail full of echoes
Just before they had begun
(Où les couleurs sans fin
Sont absorbées par le soleil
En une trainée pleine d'échos
Juste avant qu’elles aient commencé)
And fountains full of flowers
On islands full of tears
Weeping willows and fireworks
Explode then disappear
(Et les fontaines pleines de fleurs
Sur les îles pleines de larmes
Les saules pleureurs et les feux d’artifice
Explosent puis disparaissent)
You believe what you see
All the things that you know
But oh, you don’t know
The depth of my soul
(Vous croyez ce que vous voyez
Toutes les choses que vous connaissez
Mais oh, vous ne connaissez pas
La profondeur de mon âme)
Karma’s just a key
Unlocking every gate
Eyes are just mirrors
Putting us to our fate
(Le karma est juste une clé
Déverrouillant chaque porte
Les yeux juste des miroirs
Nous plaçant vers notre destin)
The sound of hello
Like a light to the blind
Sending us on a spiral
Through a world of goodbyes
(Le son du bonjour
Comme une lumière à l’aveugle
Nous envoie sur une spirale
À travers un monde d’au revoir)
All the truth that we crave
Its our fruitless parade
In a circus of our shadows
Where we play our charades
(Toute la vérité que nous implorons
Est notre infructueuse parade
Dans le cirque de nos ombres
Où nous jouons nos charades)
You believe what you see
All the things that you know
But oh you don’t know
The depth of my soul
(Vous croyez ce que vous voyez
Toutes les choses que vous connaissez
Mais oh, vous ne connaissez pas
La profondeur de mon âme)

Depth of My Soul (translation)

Where our world falls to pieces
And the moonlight starts to hide
In a million little splinters
In the corners of our mind
(Where our world is falling apart
And the moonlight begins to fade
In a million little shards
In the corners of our mind)
Where endless colors
They are swallowed by the sun
In a trail full of echoes
Just before they had begun
(Where the endless colors
Are absorbed by the sun
In a trail full of echoes
Just before they started)
And fountains full of flowers
On islands full of tears
Weeping willows and fireworks
Explode then disappear
(And fountains full of flowers
On the islands full of tears
Weeping willows and fireworks
Explode then disappear)
You believe what you see
All the things that you know
But oh, you don't know
The depth of my soul
(You believe what you see
All the things you know
But oh, you don't know
The depth of my soul)
Karma's just a key
Unlocking every gate
Eyes are just mirrors
Putting us to our fate
(Karma is just a key
Unlocking every door
Eyes just mirrors
Setting us towards our destiny)
The sound of hello
Like a light to the blind
Sending us on a spiral
Through a world of goodbyes
(The sound of hello
Like a blind light
Sends us on a spiral
Through a world of goodbyes)
All the truth that we crave
Its our fruitless parade
In a circus of our shadows
Where we play our charades
(All the truth we crave
Is our unsuccessful parade
In the circus of our shadows
Where we play our charades)
You believe what you see
All the things that you know
But oh you don't know
The depth of my soul
(You believe what you see
All the things you know
But oh, you don't know
The depth of my soul)
