Une Etoile Disparait Lyrics

After the miraculous birth
by the lighting of the flame
(darkness became less total)
We could guess a favourable wind
(which always blew embers to further and nicer horizons)

(And the flame oddly flickered
like an invisible
and growing unease)
Around the candle
which decreased men fought
with an outburst of savagery
which made the flame more delicate
(believing it immortal
they continued their fatal fight)
and the flame faded away
like an irreversible death over life

When a failed but invincible offspring
thoughtlessly destroyed the light of its awakening
this led to the passing
from tops to depths!

A star disappears

A star disappears in the dark
I see a flame fading
