Bisounours Lyrics
Il fut un temps où rien n'était éteint
Où seul l'or de mon coeur donnait l'heure
Et alors j'étais fort, mais j'ai perdu la fleur et l'innocence
Dans ce décor je me sens perdu, rien n'a plus de sens
Mais j'ai encore quelques rêves et si tant est que j'aie le temps
J'irai caresser leurs lèvres
J'ai encore quelques rêves
Et si tant est que j'aie le temps j'irai caresser leurs lèvres
Il fut un temps où rien n'était éteint
Où seul l'or de mon coeur donnait l'heure
Et alors j'étais fort, mais j'ai perdu la fleur et l'innocence
Dans ce décor je me sens perdu, car rien n'a plus de sens
Si le temps avance trop
Je me sens de taille
Je suis un enfant
Je refuse le temps
Je regarde le ciel et cet arc-en-ciel qui m'apaise
Je regarde la lumière et puis j'erre dans mes rêves
Oublier le temps
Rester un enfant
Où seul l'or de mon coeur donnait l'heure
Et alors j'étais fort, mais j'ai perdu la fleur et l'innocence
Dans ce décor je me sens perdu, rien n'a plus de sens
Mais j'ai encore quelques rêves et si tant est que j'aie le temps
J'irai caresser leurs lèvres
J'ai encore quelques rêves
Et si tant est que j'aie le temps j'irai caresser leurs lèvres
Il fut un temps où rien n'était éteint
Où seul l'or de mon coeur donnait l'heure
Et alors j'étais fort, mais j'ai perdu la fleur et l'innocence
Dans ce décor je me sens perdu, car rien n'a plus de sens
Je me sens de taille
Je refuse le temps
Je regarde la lumière et puis j'erre dans mes rêves
Rester un enfant

(Rough) Translation: There was a time when nothing was unlit When only the gold of my heart would give the time And then I was strong but I have lost the flower and the innocence In this setting I feel lost ’cause nothing makes sense anymore I still have a few dreams as long as I’m given enough time I’ll go and caress their lips I still have a few dreams As long as I’m given enough time, I’ll go and caress their lips There was a time when nothing was unlit When only the gold of my heart would give the time And then I was strong but I have lost the flower and the innocence In this setting I feel lost ’cause nothing makes sense anymore If the time is running too fast I feel like I can do it I am a child I refuse time
I watch the sky and this rainbow alleviate myself I watch the light and then I wander in my dreams
Forget the time Stay a child
It's about growing up, definately. Having your views of the world change as you age, and how it's painful. It's a beautiful song. Spleen is an amazing rapper.
(Bisounours - carebears in French)

Spleen's french rapping gives me goosebumps
SPLEEN!!!!

beautiful thanks for the translation
beautiful words
This is one of my very favorite songs. I definitely think it's about wanting to go back to having the innocence and view of a child. Even if you don't know what the translation is, it still feels like that.
one of my favourite songs ever
someone knows what do they mean by loosing "la fleur"(the flower) ?
The flower could refer to virginity? We all know what "deflowering" means, so maybe it has something to do with that.

(I only mentioned that because it says, "And then I was strong but I have lost the flower and the innocence." Losing one's virginity has a lot to do with a loss of innocence.)

Alright, for the record the guy rapping is SO NOT Spleen ! At least it doesn't seem very likely to me.. Spleen is on the track though.. He's the one humming at the very beginning and throughout the song.
So when I saw that the track was featuring Spleen and no one else, I thought that's impossible, Spleen's voice is very recognisable and that rapping part has nothing to do with him !
After a bit of research, I found that a certain "Ardzen" participated on the album.
For comparison you can listen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Doy2K-UB9Wc&t=1m56s
and https://soundcloud.com/the-black-white-skins/sweet-thing-spleen-feat-hugh (which is a track from Spleen's album btw)
To me, his timbre sounds more like that of the one rapping in Bisounours than Spleen's does...
Wonder why they didn't mention him on the track, if I am right... But I might be wrong and Spleen might just as well have altered his voice somehow...
