Aujourd'hui Lyrics in English Bigflo & Oli

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Aujourd'hui by Bigflo & Oli from French to English.
Today I do
I'm sick of talking
Today I try
To believe tomorrow'll be perfect
On the line, ready, set, go
Time flies so we can't take too long
Today I'm not scared anymore
I really wanna believe in happiness
But it's just one more day
A date that won't change history
Since yesterday I lost everything
I insulted the winner
Tonight I can win the lottery
Right after the 8 p.m. news
Maybe today's when I approach her
Even though I was supposed to yesterday
Or maybe tonight I'll write the best
Verse of my whole career
I call my old buddies back
We become kids again
Today I smile at those who
Have more yesterday than tomorrow
I've put my bouts of blues aside
The waiting, the doubt and the fear
Today the last straw will be
A bouquet of flowers
Today I'll go to class
Eyes glued to my watch
If I've got time, right as I leave
I'll go around the world
Today I don't lower my head
I erase last night's nightmares
Then I'll stop by the cemetery
Even his grave has grown old
I'll learn the guitar
Tomorrow I might be a star
If love's at every street corner
I wanna be on the right sidewalk
Today I open the window
I'll spare the fly
Tonight I'm packing a Zenith
Eyes closed in the shower
Today I've got a girlfriend
My driver's license and my diploma
Tomorrow I'll have a daughter
A car and a job
Today I do
I'm sick of talking
Today I try
To believe tomorrow'll be perfect
On the line, ready, set, go
Time flies so we can't take too long
Today I do
I'm sick of talking
Today I try
To believe tomorrow'll be perfect
On the line, ready, set, go
Time flies so we can't take too long
Today
Might be my last today
And I've got so many things to do before night
Yesterday I was a kid
Today I still am
Yesterday I was an idiot
Today I'll make an effort
Today I stop complaining
About my tiny little troubles
Because so many people suffer
My tears aren't worth much
Today I talk to my mom
I've played deaf too often
She took care of me yesterday
Tomorrow it'll be my turn
Tomorrow it'll be our turn
With my buddies we're not the coolest
We're not the craziest
We're not the kind who swagger
I won't talk about money
Deep down that's not the problem
Success is the pride
In the eyes of the ones we love
I'll get my spirits back
From way down in my sneakers
The sky fell on my head
I turned it into a cap
I'm alone in an endless sea
On a small raft that rocks
Moving forward, and I raised the anchor
And I often think of it and I miss you
But today
I won't leave any room for nostalgia
Because today I regret yesterday
Tomorrow I'll regret today
And of course I'll go see Oli
For him I'll give everything I've got
But all I've got is him
Today I do
I'm sick of talking
Today I try
To believe tomorrow'll be perfect
On the line, ready, set, go
Time flies so we can't take too long
Today I do
I'm sick of talking
Today I try
To believe tomorrow'll be perfect
On the line, ready, set, go
Time flies so we can't take too long
Today
Today
Today
Today
Today
Today
Today
Today
Today
Today I do
I'm sick of talking
Today I try
To believe tomorrow'll be perfect
On the line, ready, set, go
Time flies so we can't take too long
Today I do
I'm sick of talking
Today I try
To believe tomorrow'll be perfect
On the line, ready, set, go
Time flies so we can't take too long

SONG MEANING

Aujourd'hui is Bigflo & Oli’s musical pep-talk for anyone who keeps saying “one day” but never starts. The lyrics fire off a rapid-list of ordinary dreams that feel extraordinary when you decide to act: writing the best verse of a career, finally talking to a crush, learning guitar, phoning old friends, even hitching a round-the-world trip right after class. By repeating “Aujourd’hui je fais” (Today I do) instead of “I’ll do it tomorrow,” the brothers turn the song into a stopwatch counting down the seconds we waste hesitating.

Between playful fantasies like winning the lottery and tender promises to call Mom, the track reminds us that life slips by fast and regret is the real enemy. Happiness is not about money or swagger; it is the pride you read in the eyes of the people you love when you actually follow through. So the message is clear: lace up, step to the starting line, and sprint into the present while it is still today.
