Luis Mariano Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Je croise une belle, mon cœur bat
Je la salue, elle rougit
Elle meut l'ombrelle puis s'enfuit
Plus loin, un peu plus loin
C'est l'amour qui va, qui vient
À l'aventure
C'est l'amour qui va, qui vient
Par les chemins
Sur mon cheval, au petit trot
Je poursuis la belle aussitôt
- Señorita, vous oubliez...
- Quoi donc ? me dit-elle
- Un baiser !
Un seul, mais pas plus loin
C'est l'amour qui va, qui vient
À l'aventure
Un seul, mais pas plus loin
C'est l'amour qui va, qui vient
Par les chemins
Sur mon cheval, au grand galop
Je l'ai prise en selle comme il faut
Et dans mes bras, changeant d'avis,
Bientôt, c'est la belle qui m'a dit :
Plus loin, allons plus loin
C'est l'amour qui va, qui vient
À l'aventure
Plus loin, c'est mon refrain
En amour, il faut toujours aller plus loin
Plus loin, plus loin !
The lyrics of Luis Mariano's song "Plus Loin" tells a story of a man who is riding on his horse when he comes across a beautiful girl. He stops to acknowledge her and tries to get the girl's attention, but she blushes and runs away with her umbrella. He chases her and stops her to ask her for a single kiss. The girl eventually agrees, and they ride off together on the horse.
The lyrics of the song convey the idea that love is something that should be pursued and experienced fully. The man chasing after the girl on his horse symbolizes his willingness to go after what he wants and not let anything stand in his way.
The chorus of the song, "Plus loin, un peu plus loin, c'est l'amour qui va, qui vient" ("Further, a little further, love comes and goes"), emphasizes the idea that love is unpredictable and requires one to take risks and explore new territories to truly experience it.
Overall, "Plus Loin" is a catchy and romantic song that celebrates the thrill and adventure of love.
