Mon Rêve À Moi
Soha
My Dream, My Own
Under the fans
I lie down all day long
Days stretched out
Perfumed by the gardens
And under the veranda
Every day at 5 o'clock
That's how I long
In a burst of desire
Drunken by the heat
That spreads like a flame
I sink like a blade
Into the choppy sea
And then I emerge from the waves
Soulful and unshaken
I then stretch out
On the lightened sand
Chorus
My dream, my own
There are days when I touch it with my finger
My dream, my own
It slips away every time
My dream, my own
So skillful at my fingertips
My dream, my own
It slips away every time
Closing my account in the City
Breaking free from this hyper activity
Here my life is mine
No loyalty to them
And I will give my island the name of liberty
Here my life is mine
Under the fans
I lie down all day long
Days stretched out
Perfumed by the gardens
And under the veranda
Every day at 5 o'clock
That's how I long
In a burst of desire
There's not a soul around
Not even on Fridays
And I count the stars
I see them all here
