Letra:

[Français]

[English]

Dans l'ombre de tes yeux

In the shadow of your eyes

J'ai trouvé les plus beaux mensonges

I found the most beautiful lies

Emmêlés comme des noeuds

Tangled like knots

Et mon coeur, est-ce que t'y songes?

And my heart, do you think of it?

Tu dis que la lune brille en bleu

You say the moon shines blue

Et qu'les mers sont asséchées

And that the seas are dried up

T'inventes tout c'que tu peux

You make up everything you can

Et j'dois croire qu'tu veux m'aimer?

And I have to believe you want to love me?

J'suis pas dupe

I'm not fooled

Et même les fleurs de ma jupe

And even the flowers of my skirt

S'envolent haut

Fly high

...

...

Quand tu craches tes mots

When you spit your words

...

...

Je sais qu't'es pas sérieux

I know you're not serious

C'est ton égo qui te ronge

It's your ego that eats you away

J'connais des gens heureux

I know happy people

Tellement loin de ces mensonges

So far from these lies

Et tant pis pour l'amour

And too bad for love

Remballe tout et puis va-t'en

Pack it all up and then go away

Tu reviendras un jour

You'll come back one day

Dans deux mois ou dans mille ans

In two months or in a thousand years

J'suis pas dupe

I'm not fooled

Et même les fleurs de ma jupe

And even the flowers of my skirt

S'envolent haut

Fly high

J'suis pas dupe

I'm not fooled

Et même les fleurs de ma jupe

And even the flowers of my skirt

S'envolent haut

Fly high

Quand tu craches tes mots

When you spit your words

...

...

J'suis pas dupe

I'm not fooled

Et même les fleurs de ma jupe

And even the flowers of my skirt

S'envolent haut

Fly high

J'suis pas dupe

I'm not fooled

Et même les fleurs de ma jupe

And even the flowers of my skirt

S'envolent haut

Fly high

Quand tu craches tes mots

When you spit your words

...

Gramática:

• Dans l'ombre de tes yeux

  ➔ Prepositional phrase with 'dans'

  ➔ Using "dans" (in) to describe location. This is a common way to express where something is situated.

• Et mon coeur, est-ce que t'y songes?

  ➔ Inversion with 'est-ce que' for questioning

  ➔ "Est-ce que" + subject + verb is a common way to form questions in French. "T'y" refers back to "mon coeur", using the pronoun "y".

• Tu dis que la lune brille en bleu

  ➔ Subjunctive mood implied with 'que' and an opinion/statement

  ➔ While "brille" is in the indicative, the phrase "Tu dis que..." implies that the statement might not be true, subtly hinting at the subjunctive. This becomes more prominent with expressions of doubt or emotion.

• Et j'dois croire qu'tu veux m'aimer?

  ➔ Use of 'devoir' + infinitive to express obligation/necessity with ellipsis

  ➔ "J'dois" is a shortened version of "Je dois". "Devoir" (to have to/must) followed by an infinitive expresses obligation. The sentence is also a question, adding a layer of doubt.

• S'envolent haut

  ➔ Pronominal verb ('s'envoler') and adverb

  ➔ "S'envoler" means 'to fly away'. The 's'' is a reflexive pronoun, indicating that the action affects the subject. 'Haut' is an adverb modifying the verb, meaning 'high'.

• C'est ton égo qui te ronge

  ➔ C'est...qui construction (cleft sentence) for emphasis

  ➔ The construction "C'est...qui" is used to emphasize a particular element of the sentence. In this case, it emphasizes "ton égo" as the subject that is "ronging" (gnawing at) him.

• Remballe tout et puis va-t'en

  ➔ Imperative mood with pronominal verb and particle 'en'

  ➔ "Remballe" (pack up) is in the imperative mood. "Va-t'en" (go away) also contains the imperative of "aller" (to go) with the reflexive pronoun attached and "en", replacing a location. This shows an informal command.
