Badlands Flashback Lyrics

Mon corps se pence
Ma main s'entends
Prends du gravier
Un morcean blanc de coquille

Pour un instant
Un muguissement
L'antique mer
Rempli cet espace qui a ete la mien

Lozanges mobiles
Des herbes flottantes
Un cri soudain
D'oiseau flamboie au firmament

Une troupe d'antilopes
Traverse l'horizon
Sabots scintillants comme du verre

Un rire sonne comme le cristal
Dans le ciel vide
Quelqu'un danse comme une flamme

Cover art for Badlands Flashback lyrics by Bruce Cockburn

Here's my nonprofessional translation from the French:

My body imagines itself My hand understands itself Takes of the gravel A white piece of shell

For an instant A howling The ancient sea Fills this space that was mine

Mobile lozenges Of floating grasses A sudden cry Of blazing birds to the firmament

A group of antelopes Traverse the horizon Sparkling hooves as though made of glass

A laugh rings like crystal In the empty sky Someone dances like a flame
