Les Etoiles
Gardot Melody Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Les étoiles, les étoiles, les étoiles
Dites-moi étoiles, pourquoi je vous regarde?
Les étoiles, les étoiles, les étoiles
Dites-moi étoiles, qui vous regardera?

Les étoiles, les étoiles
Si seulement je savais
Dites moi étoiles, de qui obtenez-vous la lumière?

Les étoiles, les étoiles
Vous qui êtes belle dans les cieux
Dites-moi étoiles, qui vous donnera l'amour?

The stars, the stars, shining up above
Tell me stars, who will give you love?
The stars, the stars, lights of white and blue
Tell me stars, why I look to you?





Les étoiles, les étoiles, les étoiles
Dites-moi étoiles, pourquoi je vous regarde?

Overall Meaning

In the song "Les Etoiles" by Gardot Melody, the singer seems to be in awe of the stars and their beauty. She repeatedly asks the stars questions, almost as if she expects to receive answers from them. She begins the song by addressing the stars, asking why she is so drawn to them. She wonders if they will reciprocate her interest and look back at her.


As the song continues, she asks who the stars receive their light from, suggesting a kind of reverence for the source of their beauty. She then asks who will give the stars love, suggesting that even these heavenly bodies may long for companionship and affection. Throughout the song, the repeated refrain of "les étoiles" emphasizes the singer's continued fascination with the stars and their mystery.


Overall, "Les Etoiles" seems to capture the wonder and awe that many people feel when looking up at the night sky. Through her lyrics, Gardot Melody asks the kinds of questions that we all might ask if we could speak to the stars themselves.

Elle a une voix magnifique. Et c'est très agréable ce mélange de jazz et de rythmes brésiliens.
