Soldat turns romance into an action-packed adventure. Aya Nakamura sings as a commander of the heart, calling her lover “mon soldat” – her soldier – and asking him to give her la totalité de ton temps (all of his time). With bouncing Afro-pop rhythms behind her, she mixes tender requests ("make me fly") with battlefield images like bullets, fog, and umbrellas, showing that passion can feel thrilling, dangerous, and protective all at once.
Throughout the song she reassures her partner that their bond is unbreakable if he trusts her and tunes out the “black bullets” – the doubts, gossip, and fears that try to pierce their love. She confesses flashes of jealousy and the emptiness she feels when they are apart, yet ends on a note of fierce devotion: they are linked from head to toe, ready to march together against anything the world fires their way. Learn these lyrics and you will pick up French expressions for loyalty, longing, and confidence while dancing to a beat that makes commitment sound irresistibly cool.
