Genius Translations
Madame Monsieur - Mercy (English translation)
[Verse 1]
I was born this morning
My name is Mercy
In the middle of the sea
Between two countries, Mercy

[Verse 2]
It was a long way and Mom took it
She had me in the skin, eight and a half months
Oh yes, eight and a half months

We left the house, it was the war
Sure she was right, there was nothing to lose
Oh no, except life

[Chorus]
I was born this morning
My name is Mercy
I was handed a hand
And I'm alive
I am all these children
That the sea has taken
I will live a hundred thousand years
My name is Mercy

[Verse 3]
And there in front of our eyes was the enemy
A blue immensity, maybe infinite
We knew the price

Emerging from a wave, a friendly ship
Restored our chance to our survival
It's there that I pushed my first cry

[Chorus]
I was born this morning
My name is Mercy
I was handed a hand
And I'm alive
I am all these children
That the sea has taken
I will live a hundred thousand years
My name is Mercy

[Bridge]
I was born this morning
My name is Mercy

[Outro]
Mercy, Mercy, Mercy, Mercy
Mercy, Mercy, I'm fine, thank you
Mercy, Mercy, Mercy, Mercy
Mercy, Mercy, I'm fine, thank you
Mercy, Mercy, Mercy, Mercy
Mercy, Mercy, I'm fine, thanks
