| French Lyrics | English Translation | Chinese Lyrics |
|---|---|---|
| Ah, si je pouvais vivre dans l'eau | If I could only return to the water's embrace | 啊，若化水复回归途 A, ruò huàshuǐ fù huí guītú |
| le monde serait-il plus beau ? | Wouldn't the world be a lovelier place? | 令故土朝暮如初 Lìng gùtǔ zhāomù rúchū |
| Nous pardonneras-tu, ô chère mère ? | Dear Mother, would you be able to forgive | 啊母亲可否将我宽恕 A mǔqīn kěfǒu jiāng wǒ kuānshù |
| L'eau dans son courant fait danser nos vies | As the dancing water flows, so too we would live | 向四季流溯，引万籁驰骛 Xiàng sìjì liúsù, yǐn wànlài chíwù |
| Et la cité, elle nourrit | The city it would nourish | 所过处百废复苏 Suǒguò-chù bǎifèi-fùsū |
| Ainsi que toi, mon doux amour | And you too, my dear, would flourish | 亦充盈挚爱的心湖 Yì chōngyíng zhì'ài de xīnhú |
| Non, le grand amour ne suffit pas | But love alone could be to no avail | 爱，就将这酣梦深埋 Ài, jiù jiāng zhè hānmèng shēnmái |
| Seul un adieu fleurira | Only farewell, I fear, would prevail | 诀别如繁花盛开 Juébié rú fánhuā shèngkāi |
| C'est notre histoire de vie, douce et amère | Thus are our lives filled with joy and sorrow | 似你我往怀，愉快悲哀 Sì nǐ wǒ wǎng huái, yúkuài bēi'āi |
| Moi, je suis et serai toujours là | I'll be here always, forever and tomorrow | 爱，我会在过去未来 Ài, wǒ huì zài guòqù wèilái |
| à voir le monde et sa beauté | To behold the world's undying beauty | 注视这世间精彩 Zhùshì zhè shìjiān jīngcǎi |
| Et ça ne changera jamais, jamais... | And that shall live on in perpetuity... | 一切从未改，未改…… Yīqiè cóngwèi gǎi, wèi gǎi… |
