“La vie est belle” (by Grégoire)

Non, surtout ne crois pas
Que pour certains tout est facile
C’est simplement qu’ils ne pensent pas
Que c’est trop dur, trop difficile
Bien sûr qu’il y a des matins

Où ils voudraient tout foutre en l’air
C’est justement dans ces matins
Qu’ils se répètent : je peux le faire

Non, surtout ne crois pas
Qu’il y a des gens qui ont de la chance
C’est simplement qu’ils ne veulent pas
Voir le mauvais ni la malchance
Bien sûr qu’ils traversent des orages
Et des moments durs à survivre
Mais ils préfèrent tourner la page
Et continuer d’écrire le livre
Et surtout de se dire
Malgré le pire et le cruel
Que le plus beau est à venir
Et que la vie est belle
Belle

Non, surtout ne crois pas
Que certains ont une bonne étoile
C’est simplement parce qu’ils y croient
Et n’se perdent pas dans des dédales
Ils ne se trouvent jamais d’excuses
Et n’ont pas de boucs émissaires
C’est simplement parce qu’ils refusent
De rester un genou à terre
Et qu’ils continuent de se dire
Malgré le pire et le cruel
Que le plus beau est à venir
Et que la vie est belle
Belle

Non, ne crois surtout pas
Que pour certains tout est facile
C’est simplement parce qu’ils ne pensent pas
Que c’est trop dur et trop difficile
Et qu’ils continuent de se dire
Malgré le pire et le cruel
Que le plus beau reste à venir
Et que la vie est belle
Oui la vie est belle
Oui la vie est belle”.

Life is beautiful (by Grégoire)

“No, above all, don’t think

That for some everything is easy

It’s just that they don’t think

That it’s too tough, too difficult

Of course there are mornings

Where they want to screw it all up

It is precisely in these mornings

They re-tell themselves: I can do it

No, above all don’t think

That there are people who are lucky

It’s just that they don’t want to

See the bad or bad luck

Of course they go through thunderstorms

And hard times to survive

But they’d rather turn the page

And prefer keep writing the book [of their life]

And, above all, to tell themselves

Despite the worst and the cruel

That the most beautiful is yet to come

And that life is beautiful

Beautiful

No, above all don’t think

That some have a lucky star

It’s just because they believe it

And don’t get lost in the maze

They never find excuses

And have no scapegoats

It’s just because they refuse

To keep putting one knee on the ground

And they keep telling themselves

Despite the worst and the cruel

That the most beautiful is yet to come

And that life is beautiful

Beautiful

No, don’t think

That for some everything is easy

It’s just because they don’t think

That it’s too tough and too difficult

And they re-tell themselves

Despite the worst and the cruel

That the most beautiful is yet to come

And that life is beautiful

Yes life is beautiful

Yes life is beautiful“.
