La Vie Est Une Rose

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We'e all gonna die somehow
But I won't say goodbye, Not now
promise I won't tie you down
I promise i won't make you stay
but that moment is forever
that second is forever

La vie en rose
sharp as a thorn mhm
a shimmer of hope
heaven so bright that

even in the cool light
glitter in the snow
angels on your shoulders, show you where to go
did you wanna do right
write a little note
leaving you would scare me, but I have always known

We'e all gonna die somehow
But I won't say goodbye, Not now
promise I won't tie you down
I promise i won't make you stay




but that moment is forever
that second is forever

Overall Meaning

In Ary's song "La Vie Est Une Rose," the lyrics convey a bittersweet understanding of mortality and the transient nature of life. The opening lines, "We're all gonna die somehow, but I won't say goodbye, not now," suggest a refusal to accept the inevitability of death, emphasizing a desire to hold on to the present moment. The promise not to tie someone down or make them stay reflects a recognition of the importance of freedom and letting go when necessary.


The phrase "La vie en rose" translates to "life in pink," which symbolizes a state of optimism and contentment. However, the line "sharp as a thorn, a shimmer of hope," introduces a contrasting element, implying that within the beauty and positivity of life, there may also be moments of pain or uncertainty. The reference to a "heaven so bright" suggests a longing for something beyond the ordinary, something that transcends the confines of mortality.


The subsequent lines, "even in the cool light, glitter in the snow, angels on your shoulders show you where to go," paint a vivid picture of guidance and protection, suggesting that even in the face of uncertainty, there is always some form of divine intervention or inner guidance. The lyrics further reveal the fear of leaving and the comfort of knowing that leaving would be scary but inevitable.


Ultimately, "La Vie Est Une Rose" captures the duality of life: its fragility and inevitability, as well as its moments of beauty and hope. It encourages appreciation of the present while acknowledging the transient nature of existence.
