Home / Lyrics Translation / Tim Dup / Le Visage De La Nuit

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le Visage De La Nuit by Tim Dup from French to English.

It is the end

Since the time we've been talking about it

On a beach

Skinned knees

The ocean leaves the foam on the white shells

Polished by salt

The sky is pink and silent

And in the background, white noise

Just noticeable

Your ruddy hair forms

Misunderstood curves and braids

Your eyes have the face of night

I like that you are free

I like your heresies

So I utter the forbidden litanies

I do not care

You are my only church

A braid pearls from your shoulder like rain on the Tropics

I pass my hand on your neck as bare as the first men

Under the shadowy fold of your right breast

Hiding there

A beauty spot

I know it

I know it, I know it, I know it

I know it, I know it, I know it, I know it

I know it

We see the green ray

In the distance, like a mirage

And the print that evaporates

We barely believe it

But the radius is growing

And approaches

The sea is raging

The waves have heights

That even magic can no longer guess

We don't kiss, it's too little

We hold each other together, in symbiosis

Waltz of atoms that magnetize each other

Because everything will disappear

I love you

SONG MEANING

Le Visage De La Nuit plunges you into a dream-like end-of-the-world sunset, where scraped knees meet foamy tides, a cotton-candy sky hushes the horizon, and a mysterious “rayon vert” swells on the edge of sight. Tim Dup zooms in on vermilion hair, hidden beauty marks, and the white-noise roar of the sea, painting a scene that is both intensely sensual and eerily calm before the storm.

Beneath the poetic imagery lies a message about embracing the fleeting moment. The lovers refuse a simple kiss and instead merge in a “valse d’atomes,” turning to each other as their only church while the waves rise and the world threatens to disappear. Freedom, irreverence, and raw tenderness fuse into one final declaration: in the face of cosmic uncertainty, the bravest thing we can do is clutch the person we love and whisper “Je t’aime.”
