зa Ira Mon Amour
Rod Janois Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cette peur qui me déshabille
Pour avoir osé ton nom sur ma peau
Et ces pleurs qui te démaquillent
Viennent emporter ma raison sous les flots
Malgré tous les regards qui fusillent
Près de nous l'étendard qui vacille
Après tout on s'en moque, moque, moque, moque
Moque, moque, moque, moque

Ça ira mon amour
Ah ça ira pour toujours
Allons amants
Déclamer nos serments interdits
Ça ira mon amour
On oubliera les tambours
Sur tous les murs j'écrirai je le jure
Liberté chérie

J'ai rêvé nos corps qui se touchent
Caressé l'esprit de nos idéaux
J'ai posé ma langue sur ta bouche
Savouré l'essence de tes moindres mots
Malgré tout le désir est fragile
Près de nous le plaisir en péril
Après tout on s'en moque, moque, moque, moque
Moque, moque, moque, moque

Ça ira mon amour
Ah ça ira pour toujours
Allons amants
Déclamer nos serments interdits
Ça ira mon amour
On oubliera les tambours
Sur tous les murs j'écrirai je le jure
Liberté chérie

Mon amour
C'est ta vie que j'épouse en ce jour
Serti de roses rouges
Allons amants
Il faut rire et danser
Voilà le printemps libéré

Ça ira mon amour
On écrira le grand jour
Je t'offrirai mes nuits pour la vie
C'est promis

Ça ira mon amour
Ah ça ira pour toujours
Allons amants
Déclamer nos serments interdits
Ça ira mon amour (ça ira, ça ira, ça ira)
On oubliera les tambours (ça ira, ça ira, ça ira)




Sur tous les murs j'écrirai je le jure
Liberté

Overall Meaning

The song "Ça Ira Mon Amour" by Rod Janois explores themes of love, defiance, and freedom. In the first verse, the lyrics discuss the fear and vulnerability that come with expressing love for someone. The reference to "osé ton nom sur ma peau" (daring your name on my skin) suggests a deep emotional connection, and the tears that "démaquillent" (remove makeup) represent the raw honesty and intimacy shared between the two lovers. Despite the judgmental looks and the wavering symbol of their relationship, the lyrics convey a sense of indifference, almost mocking those who disapprove.


The chorus, "Ça ira mon amour, Ah ça ira pour toujours" (It will be okay, my love, Ah it will be okay forever), exudes a sense of optimism and resilience. The lovers vow to defy societal expectations and embrace their forbidden love. They will forget the beat of the drums, symbolizing conformity and oppressive forces, and instead proclaim their love boldly and proudly. "Sur tous les murs j'écrirai je le jure, Liberté chérie" (I will write on all the walls, I swear, Beloved freedom) emphasizes their commitment to freedom and their refusal to be silenced.


The second verse delves further into the lovers' deep connection. The lyrics describe a dream in which they physically and emotionally unite, touching each other's bodies and indulging in the essence of their words. However, despite the intensity of desire, the lyrics acknowledge the fragility of their passion. With pleasure under threat, they maintain the same carefree attitude, dismissing any concerns.


The bridge of the song takes a more ceremonial tone, emphasizing the commitment between the two lovers. "C'est ta vie que j'épouse en ce jour" (It is your life that I marry on this day) signifies a merging of lives and a union bound by love. They celebrate this union, adorned with red roses, and declare that laughter and dancing must follow. The arrival of liberating spring represents the beginning of a new era of freedom and joy.


The final chorus reiterates the determination to keep fighting for love and freedom. The repetition of "Ça ira" reinforces the message of resilience and the assurance that things will be okay. The lyrics exclaim that they will write the "grand jour" (great day) and offer their nights as a promise of love. The vows to forget the drums and write on all walls emphasize the dedication to their cause and the preciousness of freedom.


Overall, "Ça Ira Mon Amour" is a passionate anthem of love and defiance. It speaks to the power of love to overcome societal barriers and the unwavering commitment to freedom and happiness.

Love all of your videos, particularly the ones with George Sanders. The one with Hitchcock is truly wonderful. Your mix of music and clips is outstanding. Please keep them coming......in any language!!

@MsViaggio

Looking forward to Sanders vs. The Classic Authors. That should be great fun. Vincent Price is a favorite of mine also. Love him in Gables, Dragonwyck, Green Hell and so many others. Also adore Cedric Hardwicke and Peter Cushing. Many thanks.
