Inconnu excepté de Dieu

Édith Piaf Édith Piaf

Unknown Except by God

The inscription of an ancient cross
By a field of golden wheat
Stopped me... I read with great effort:

"Unknown except by God"

What a fate, truly immense
Lies beneath this blue granite
Among the swaying wheat

"Unknown except by God"

Is it a child, or is it a man
For whom death made, so much the better
A square of kingdom

"Unknown except by God"

Did he suffer, was he guilty
Did he make beautiful eyes cry
Was he a tragedy or a fable

"Unknown except by God"

Does he have rain as his village
And winter wind as his capital
The sun as his grand entourage

"Unknown except by God"

I took the cart path
A road for great lovers
I was flooded with light

"Unknown except by God..."
