Song language: French
Si tu savais(original) |
| Si tu savais mon frère |
| Ce que je trouve là-bas chaque fois |
| Le rythme lent de la terre |
| Où les vies passent doucement pas à pas |
| Si tu savais mon frère |
| Ce qu’ensemble veut dire là-bas |
| Au coeur des monastères |
| Les dieux s’inclinent devant tant de foi |
| Ici nos âmes sont grises |
| Les gens ne se regardent pas |
| Nos sentiments s’enlisent |
| Et l’on ne voit pas ce que l’on n’a pas |
| Eux tu sais quand ils disent |
| Pas besoin de signer en bas |
| Chaque matin chaque brise |
| C’est ton coeur qui parle pour toi |
| Si tu savais mon frère |
| Comme je me retrouve quand je suis là-bas |
| Dans leurs chants leurs prières |
| Ou j’aime tant mêler ma voix |
| Si tu savais mon frère |
| Comme chaque jour est fort là-bas |
| Les bonheurs, les misères |
| Tout se partage même le moindre repas |
| Le pain et les chimères |
| La peur de l’au-delà |
| Juste offrir et se taire |
| Sans réfléchir juste comme ça |
| La crainte du tonnerre |
| La mort qui vient déjà |
| C’est tout leur univers |
| Qu’ils partagent simplement avec toi |
| Si tu savais |
| Il suffit de donner |
| Si tu savais |
| Aimer c’est partager |
| Si tu savais |
| Il suffit de donner |
| Si tu savais |
| Aimer c’est partager |
| Le bonheur c’est partager. |
| (translation) |
| If you knew my brother |
| What I find there every time |
| The slow rhythm of the earth |
| Where lives pass slowly step by step |
| If you knew my brother |
| What together means there |
| In the heart of the monasteries |
| The gods bow to so much faith |
| Here our souls are gray |
| People don't look at each other |
| Our feelings get bogged down |
| And you don't see what you don't have |
| Them you know when they say |
| No need to sign below |
| Every morning every breeze |
| It's your heart that speaks for you |
| If you knew my brother |
| Like I find myself when I'm there |
| In their songs their prayers |
| Where I so love to mingle my voice |
| If you knew my brother |
| How strong every day is there |
| Happiness, misery |
| Everything is shared even the smallest meal |
| Bread and Chimeras |
| The fear of the afterlife |
| Just offer and shut up |
| Without thinking just like that |
| The fear of thunder |
| The death that is already coming |
| It's their whole world |
| That they just share with you |
| If you knew |
| Just give |
| If you knew |
| To love is to share |
| If you knew |
| Just give |
| If you knew |
| To love is to share |
| Happiness is sharing. |
