I see the city celebrating and delirious again
Suffocating under the sun and under the joy
And I hear in the music the cries, the laughter
That burst and bounce around me
And lost among these people who jostle me
?Dazed, distraught, I stay there
When suddenly, I turn around, he steps back,
And the crowd comes to throw me into its arms...
Carried away by the crowd that drags us
Drags us
?crushed one against each other other
We form only one body
And the flow without effort
Pushes us, chained one and the other
And leaves us both
Experienced, intoxicated and happy.
Carried along by the crowd that rushes
And dances
A crazy farandole
Our two hands remain united
And sometimes lifted
Our two entwined bodies fly away
And both fall back
?blissful, intoxicated and happy...
And the joy? splashed by his smile
pierces me and wells up deep inside me
But suddenly I let out a cry among the laughter
When the crowd comes to snatch it away from between my arms...
Carried away by the crowd that drags us
Drags us
Takes us away from each other
I fight and I struggle
But the sound of his voice
Is choked in the laughter of others
And I cry out in pain, fury and rage
And I cry...
Carried along by the crowd that rushes
And dances
A crazy farandole
I am carried away
And I clench my fists, cursing the crowd that is stealing from me
The man she gave me?
And whom I never found?...
