Souffler Lyrics in English Tryo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Souffler by Tryo from French to English.
Breathe in honesty, breathe out joy
Breathe in friendship, exhale bad faith
Breathe in trust, breathe out hope
Breathe in another France, exhale intolerance
We were promised, finance is the enemy
To the left, comrades, life will be solidarity
Dream, the dream we made
Maybe a utopia, maybe we don't live the same
President, we're bored, a little too normal
A bit too sleepy, way too liberal
We want to change life, sing in the neighborhoods
The projects, the villages, the song of the Motivated
Love, sharing
Breathe in honesty, breathe out joy
Breathe in friendship, exhale bad faith
Breathe in trust, breathe out hope
Breathe in another France, exhale intolerance
They talked to us a lot, often to say nothing
You gotta make the crowd dream to get reelected
With big speeches, doing hardly anything
Living day by day, up to our overdose
Dream, dreams filling your head
We want revolutions, sharing, partying
Big resolutions, strange destination
The bill's gonna be steep, steered by barons
That's the left upside down
Breathe in honesty, breathe out joy
Breathe in friendship, exhale bad faith
Breathe in trust, breathe out hope
Breathe in another France, exhale intolerance
Everyone has their part to play, let youth step up
Tired elephants should move aside
Dream, breathe in the left
Change its habits so equality
Climbs back up
If it's not dead, maybe aching
Jaurès back again, and the people with him
It has to change, the future is here
Let's sing together, with one voice
Breathe in honesty, breathe out joy
Breathe in friendship, exhale bad faith
Breathe in trust, breathe out hope
Breathe in another France, exhale intolerance
Breathe in honesty, breathe out joy
Breathe in friendship, exhale bad faith
Breathe in trust, breathe out hope
Breathe in another France, exhale intolerance

SONG MEANING

Souffler invites us to take a deep, cleansing breath in the middle of France’s political whirlwind. Through a playful cycle of insuffler (inhale), souffler (blow), respirer (breathe), and expirer (exhale), Tryo paints the picture of a country that desperately wants to swap out cynicism for honesty, sadness for joy, and intolerance for friendship. Every chorus feels like a yoga session for society: breathe in trust and hope, breathe out bad faith and hate.

But this is more than a feel-good mantra. The verses fire pointed critiques at sleepy leaders, hollow speeches, and a left wing that has lost its way. Tryo rallies the young to step up, let the “tired elephants” step aside, and reboot the dream of égalité that figures like Jaurès once championed. With reggae-folk energy and communal chants, the song balances protest and party, urging listeners to sing together, change together, and literally blow a fresher France into being.
