Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Vie Ne Vaut Rien by Alain Souchon from French to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Il a tourné sa vie dans tous les sens
He turned his life in every direction
Pour savoir si ça avait un sens l'existence
To know if existence had a meaning
Il a demandé leur avis à des tas de gens ravis
He asked lots of delighted people for their opinions
Ravis, ravis, de donner leur avis sur la vie
Delighted, delighted, to give their opinion on life
Il a traversé les vapeurs des derviches tourneurs
He walked through the vapors of the whirling dervishes
Des haschich fumeurs et il a dit
Smoking hashish and he said
La vie ne vaut rien, rien, rien, la vie ne vaut rien
Life is worth nothing, nothing, nothing, life is worth nothing
Mais moi quand je tiens, tiens
But me when I hold, hold
Là dans mes mains éblouies
There in my dazzled hands
Les deux jolis petits seins de mon amie
My friend's two pretty little breasts
Là je dis rien, rien, rien, rien ne vaut la vie
There I say nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing is worth life
Il a vu l'espace qui passe
He saw the passing space
Entre la jet set les fastes, les palaces
Between the jet set, the splendor, the palaces
Et puis les techniciens de surface
And then the surface technicians
D'autres espèrent dans les clochers, les monastères
Others hope in bell towers, monasteries
Voir le vieux sergent pépère mais ce n'est que Richard Gere
See the cushy old sergeant but it's only Richard Gere
Il est entré comme un insecte sur site d'Internet
He entered like an insect on the Internet site
Voir les gens des sectes et il a dit
See the people of the sects and he said
La vie ne vaut rien, rien, rien, la vie ne vaut rien
Life is worth nothing, nothing, nothing, life is worth nothing
Mais moi quand je tiens, tiens
But me when I hold, hold
Là dans mes mains éblouies
There in my dazzled hands
Les deux jolis petits seins de mon amie
My friend's two pretty little breasts
Là je dis rien, rien, rien, rien ne vaut la vie
There I say nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing is worth life
Il a vu manque d'amour, manque d'argent
He saw lack of love, lack of money
Comme la vie c'est détergeant
Like life is detergent
Et comme ça nettoie les gens
And how it cleans people
Il a joué jeux interdit pour des amis endormis
He played forbidden games for sleeping friends
Et il a dit
And he said
La vie ne vaut rien, rien, rien, la vie ne vaut rien
Life is worth nothing, nothing, nothing, life is worth nothing
Mais moi quand je tiens, tiens
But me when I hold, hold
Là dans mes mains éblouies
There in my dazzled hands
Les deux jolis petits seins de mon amie
My friend's two pretty little breasts
Là je dis rien, rien, rien, rien ne vaut la vie
There I say nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing is worth life
