Original text with translation
Pierre Lapointe
Tu craches de ta bouche tous tes éclats de rire
Pour oublier le bonheur et la joie que tu n’as pas
Tu gardes sur ton cœur l'étrange souvenir
De la légèreté de l’enfance qui commence à flétrir
Mais où vas-tu, courant derrière tes pas
Écorchant ton visage, en empilant les voyages?
Mais que fais-tu, te barbouillant de tes dires
Quand tu te sens rougir, trahi par tes soupirs?
Quand tu ne sais comment nous dire
Que, toi aussi, tu pleures
Que tu saignes du cœur
Quand de ta bouche coulent les rires
Tu nous cries sans cesse que tu gardes la foi
Face aux tristesses, aux malheurs qui s’acharnent sur toi
Tu camoufles tes pleurs, sous d’imposantes voix
Qui chantent pour toi l’alleluia d’un bonheur que tu n’as pas
Mais promets-toi qu’un jour tu resteras
Face aux fausses paroles, autre chose qu’un guignol
Mais promets-toi que tu ne resteras pas
Dans toutes tes courses folles, celui qui toujours rigole
Sans s’avouer qu’il ne sait dire
Que lui aussi pleure
Qu’il saigne du cœur
Quand de sa bouche coulent les rires
You spit all your laughter out of your mouth
To forget the happiness and the joy you don't have
You hold on your heart the strange memory
Of the lightness of childhood beginning to wither
But where are you going, running behind your steps
Scratching your face, stacking the trips?
But what are you doing, smearing your words
When you feel yourself blushing, betrayed by your sighs?
When you don't know how to tell us
That you too are crying
That you bleed from the heart
When from your mouth the laughter flows
You keep yelling at us that you keep the faith
Faced with the sadness, the misfortunes that plague you
You hide your tears, under imposing voices
Who sing for you the hallelujah of a happiness you don't have
But promise yourself one day you'll stay
Faced with false words, something other than a puppet
But promise yourself you won't stay
In all your crazy races, the one who always laughs
Without admitting that he does not know how to say
That he too cries
Let it bleed from the heart
When from his mouth the laughter flows
