rien ne pourrait vivre
But for air, nothing could live.
Sans air, rien ne pourrait vivre.
If it were not for the sun, nothing could live.
Sans le soleil, rien ne pourrait vivre.
Without water, nothing could live.
Sans eau, rien ne pourrait vivre.
Were it not for water, nothing could live.
Sans l’eau, rien ne pourrait vivre.
