My love, my sweet, my king
  My child whom I adore
  My love, my sweet, my law
  My other self
  You are the setting sun
  Fallen to the ground
  You are my final spring
  My God, how I love you
  
  I've already made my way
  I went towards silence
  With such impudence
  I wanted no one no more
  I hurried into autumn
  My final autumn, perhaps
  I desired nothing no more
  But like a miracle
  You came into my light
  
  And you, my love, my king
  Breaking my frontiers
  But you, my setting sun
  My sky, my ground
  You gave me all your years
  From your heart
  You are my final spring
  My God, how I love you
  
  I always thought that love
  That the most beautiful love
  Was one that's incestuous
  There was in your eyes
  There was in your eyes
  A luminous tenderness
  You wanted us to live
  The most beautiful love
  Love the most beautiful
  
  I reopened my house
  My large windows
  And I crowned your brow
  I kissed your mouth
  You, my adolescent
  You, my heartache
  You have laid your 20 years
  With my 40
  
  For scarcely are they born
  Than they're already condemned
  Love of desperation
  That never deadens
  This diamond that was given us
  I burnt our cathedral
  Love the most beautiful
  The most beautiful love
  Is the one that's incestuous (adieu)
  
  Goodbye, my child, my king
  My love whom I adore
  One day you will understand
  That when one loves
  One must leave the most beautiful
  And conceal the pain
  My love, my child, king
  I leave, I love you
  
  This is the truth
  From the depths of my heart
