Translation
Without You
When madness is in the wind, and flying in the fields, and then
I've fallen, but I'm pretending.
But when, on the infinite path, I arrive at the experience of the accused
I still know what it is to love a semblance*
I take myself for a real novice**
I've learned everything, listen, I, mama, I can thus see
Understand my true place
Truly well
The earth sings loudly to me, to know why
When you're not here
The earth seems cold to me, without you
Impossible to see, to know why, when you're not here
Impossible to see, without you
When I've danced (...) I've broken my hope, and then
I felt myself to love a semblance***
I miss you in the morning, surely, I have a headache
I still know what it is to love a semblance
Understand, my true novice****
I've spelled everything, listen, I, mama, I can see
Understand my true plan, truly well
The earth seems cold to me,
Knowing why
When you're not here.
The earth seems cold to me,
Without you.
Impossible to see,
To know why
When you're not here.
Impossible to see
Without you.
The earth seems cold to me,
Knowing why
When you're not here.
The earth seems cold to me,
Without you.
Impossible to see,
To know why
When you're not here.
Impossible to see
Without you.

lmao what
I love this song, but it's incomprehensible. I know that a lot of this translation isn't accurate, but that's me just trying to make lyrics that make sense. Any improvements to the transcription would be great.
*semblance --> semblance, which has a connotation of "veneer/pretence" in English, not sure if it's there in French too
**i assume this line is relating to the phrase "prendre quelqu'un pour un bleu" -- tricking someone based on their inexperience/foolishness
***awkward lyrics --> awkwardly phrased translation?? this would be a v archaic/roundabout way to say you're in love with a "semblance", but i guess it works if you're trying to sound distant
****bleue --> novice, again

Russia is waging a disgraceful war on Ukraine. Stand With Ukraine!
i hope this translation was useful to you. use it wherever, i don't mind.
i write evocative translations rather than precise ones so this might not be "word for word" but at least it will be pretty
