La vie en rose [English translation]

Eyes which make me lower mine

a laugh that gets lost on his lips

this is the image without retouching

of the man to whom I belong

when he takes me in his arms

he speaks to me softly

and I see life through rose-coloured glasses

he tells me love words

everyday words

and that makes me shiver

he came into my heart

a piece of happiness

whose cause I know

he’s mine and I’m his

in this life

he told me it, he swore it for his life

and since I spotted him

I can feel inside me

my heart beating

nights of love without end

a great happiness has settled replacing

boredom, sorrow, phases

happy immensely happy

when he takes me in his arms

he speaks to me softly

and I see life through rose-coloured glasses

he tells me love words

everyday words

and that makes me shiver

he came into my heart

a piece of happiness

whose cause I know

he’s mine and I’m his

in this life

he told me it, he swore it for his life

and since I spotted him

I can feel inside me

my heart beating
