One day (Vahombey)

« Le blues te tombe dessus sans prévenir comme le froid.
Ton cœur est en berne et ton humeur grise sale, … Terne.
Mais plus malheureux que toi sont les miséreux,
Les enfants des rues qui font des cieux leur toit.
Le pire, c’est qu’ils osent te confier
Que trop désespérés, ils veulent se suicider.
Tu soupires, tu déterres ton sourire,
Et tu les fais rire. »

You are catching blues like you are catching cold
But the biggest pain you can feel is
When you see hopeless children,
Feeling sad and talking about suicide,
Then you can say your heart is breaking.
Your heart is breaking
Ôh ! Broken
Your heart is breaking

Even you are unhappy,
Even you have lost everything you have got,
And you deeply miss someone you really love.
Be hoping, because only hope will keep you going.
Life is unfair, but willpower let you get there.
And find a smile to share
For children it’s unfair to see you drunk,
It’s unfair to see you dirt.
They only want to play with you,
Just seeing you makes them happy.

Find courage for smiling
And strength to make them laughing.
Be strong enough to hide your blues,
Because you are old now,
You are a parent.
You are a parent
Be patient
You are a parent

You can say it’s unfair but it’s not.
It’s just the way for you to smile again.
Be patient.
Good things come to those who can wait.
One day
Yes, one day.

One day,
Who knows,
You will leave blues and pain.
