La dame et la licorne

Something is breathing in the air

Something is moving, in the water

And the winds in you are blowing…

Bring back my boy!

I loved him.

I loved him.

Gentle flakes of snow

On the roads and the fences

My head is aflame

my body is distant.

And I am fading out

I can tell it all the time

I’ll go down in a flame

and wheel in the air like a swallow, diving.

Oh, you border guards

So young and handsome in the light

Will you let me go through, to the enemy lines,

one more time?

one more time?

Hold my arm, will you

Hold my arm harder

There are islands in the sun

There are diamonds in the water

Oh
