C'Est D'Ici Que Je Vous Ecris Lyrics in English Calogero

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song C'Est D'Ici Que Je Vous Ecris by Calogero from French to English.
A cup of tea
The chair's a bit wobbly
It's not too tidy
I know
Nothing very original
The piano's in tune
At the windows there's a sky, stars
I drift away
It's here from this nest that I tell you my life
All my denials, my desires
That I wait for, that I feel passionately, that I pray
Indecisive, surely, so many ifs I have
My cries I dedicate to you
It's here from this nest
From here that I write to you
If you want to visit
We can tour it fast
I love this light in summer
Weird machines
Scribbled blue notebooks
There, that was my first guitar
You see
It's here from this nest that I tell you my life
All my denials, my desires
That I wait for, that I feel passionately, that I pray
Indecisive, surely, so many ifs I have
My cries I dedicate to you
It's here from this nest
From here that I write to you
It's also from these nights, these double lives
That words and melodies are born
From here to infinity I'll say thank you again
It's here tonight, from here that I'm writing to you
Did you like these lyrics?
SONG MEANING

“C’est d’ici que je vous écris” invites you to squeeze into Calogero’s tiny, slightly messy creative hideout and watch songs take flight. He points out the wobbly chair, cold cup of tea, scribbled blue notebooks, and the very first guitar still proudly leaning in the corner. From this unremarkable yet magical “nest,” every confession, daydream, and shout of gratitude pours straight into his piano and out to the night sky. The chorus becomes his open letter to us, proving that life-changing melodies can start on a crooked seat beside a cracked window.

The track is really a love note to the creative process itself. By walking us through the room where he battles doubts, courts inspiration, and prays for the right words, Calogero turns vulnerability into an intimate conversation with listeners. He says thank you again and again because, from this cramped space, our ears turn his whispers into an infinite echo. In short, the song celebrates how ordinary objects and late-night solitude can spark music that travels far beyond its humble birthplace.
