Qui peut dire [English translation]

We do know that the day

Comes after the night

But who can tell if the day

Will be blue or gray ?

We do know that winter

Will come back every year

But what winter will be like

No one knows for sure

Days, all of them, more or less

Are similar

As are the nights

But who can tell if tomorrow

Will be like today ?

Who can be sure enough ?

What we think we have

We can only lose it

And the sky is dark

Only because it can be clear

As all beginnings

Must have an end

Everything that lives

Is ever-changing

Then dies

And turns to nothing

People, all of them, more or less

Are similar

So, who

Could promise someone

To love them forever ?
