La Vie En Rose
Liata Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas,
Je vois la vie en rose.

Il me dit des mots d'amour,
Des mots de tous les jours,
Et ca me fait quelque chose.
Il est entre dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
don't je connais la cause.

C'est lui pour moi. Moi pour lui
Dans la vie,
Il me l'a dit, l'a jurait pour la vie.

Et des que je l'apercois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon coeur qui bat

Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas,
Je vois la vie en rose.

Il me dit des mots d'amour,
Des mots de tous les jours,
Et ca me fait quelque chose.

Il est entre dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
don't je connais la cause.

C'est lui pour moi. Moi pour lui
Dans la vie,
Il me l'a dit, l'a jurait pour la vie.

Et des que je l'apercois
Alors je sens en moi




Mon coeur qui bat
Mon coeur qui bat

Overall Meaning

The song "La Vie en Rose" by Edith Piaf is a beautiful love song about seeing the world through the rosy lens of love. The lyrics describe the overwhelming feeling of happiness and bliss one encounters when in the arms of the one they love.


The opening lines talk about how when the singer's lover takes her in his arms and whispers sweet nothings to her, she sees everything in rose-tinted hues. The words spoken by him are filled with love and affection, to the point where it moves her deeply. This feeling of intense love and devotion is captured succinctly in the second verse, as the singer describes how the man has entered her heart and brought with him a part of the happiness that she now can't imagine living without.


The chorus of the song reiterates the deep level of commitment and love between the two individuals as they pledge their devotion to each other for life. The song is a beautiful expression of the joy that love brings to people’s lives and how it can transform even the worst situations into something beautiful and positive.
