French Lyrics 	English Translation 	Chinese Lyrics
Ah, si je pouvais vivre dans l'eau 	If I could only return to the water's embrace 	
le monde serait-il plus beau ? 	Wouldn't the world be a lovelier place? 	
Nous pardonneras-tu, ô chère mère ? 	Dear Mother, would you be able to forgive 	
L'eau dans son courant fait danser nos vies	As the dancing water flows, so too we would live	
Et la cité, elle nourrit 	The city it would nourish 	
Ainsi que toi, mon doux amour 	And you too, my dear, would flourish 	
Non, le grand amour ne suffit pas 	But love alone could be to no avail 	
Seul un adieu fleurira 	Only farewell, I fear, would prevail 	
C'est notre histoire de vie, douce et amère	Thus are our lives filled with joy and sorrow 	
Moi, je suis et serai toujours là 	I'll be here always, forever and tomorrow 	
à voir le monde et sa beauté 	To behold the world's undying beauty 	
Et ça ne changera jamais, jamais... 	And that shall live on in perpetuity...
