La Vie En Rose : Lyrics (French and English)

Translation of “La vie en rose” lyrics in French (left) and in English (right) :

La vie en rose (French version)Life in pink (English translation)
Des yeux qui font baisser les miens
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche
Voilà le portrait sans retouches
De l’homme auquel j’appartiens
*
Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Qu’il me parle tout bas
Je vois la vie en rose
Il me dit des mots d’amour
Des mots de tous les jours
Mais moi, ça me fait quelque chose
*
Il est entré dans mon cœur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C’est lui pour moi, moi pour lui dans la vie
Il me l’a dit, l’a juré pour la vie
Et dès que je l’aperçois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon cœur qui bat
*
Des nuits d’amour à plus finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Les ennuis, les chagrins s’effacent
Heureux, heureux à en mourir
*
Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Qu’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 ça me fait quelque chose
*
Il est entré dans mon cœur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C’est toi pour moi, moi pour toi dans la vie
Il me l’a dit, l’a juré pour la vie
Et dès que je t’aperçois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon cœur qui bat
*
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La, la, la-la
Mon cœur qui bat

Eyes that make mine droop
A laugh that gets lost on his mouth
This is the unadulterated portrait
Of the man to whom I belong
*
When he takes me in his arms
When he talks to me softly
I see life in pink
He tells me words of love
Words of love, words of everyday life
But it’s doing something to me
*
He’s entered my heart
A piece of happiness
I know the cause of it
It’s him for me, I for him in life
He told me, he swore it for life
And as soon as I see him
Then I feel inside me
My heart beating
*
Nights of endless love
A great happiness that takes its place
The troubles, the sorrows fade away
Happy, happy to death
*
When he takes me in his arms
When he talks to me softly
I see life in pink
He tells me words of love
Words of everyday love
And it does something to me
*
He’s entered my heart
A piece of happiness
I know the cause of it
It’s you for me, me for you in life
He told me, he swore it for life
And as soon as I see you
Then I feel inside me
My heart beats
*
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La, la, la-la
*
My heart beats
