Indélébile Lyrics in English Christophe Willem , Zaho

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Indélébile by Christophe Willem from French to English.
She's here, she smiles at me
Without speaking, she told me everything
I'd say she's pretty skilled
If with one glance she undresses me
I'm a king who's gone mad
Checkmate, I can't stand anymore
My heart felt tremors
And my body felt wings sprouting
Ooh ooh Too indecisive
Even if I want to take up the challenge
Ooh ooh I want her
It's f*cked, I'm sentenced for life
Indelible, indelible
Your love is indelible
Indelible, indelible
Too bad if loving you is a crime
Indelible, indelible
Your love is indelible
Indelible, indelible
Indelidelidelidelible
Emotional battle
The story seems ordinary
My heart opens like a fan
And the lightning strike is fatal
Strip me of my bulletproof vest
Do me good like I could hurt you
Scarecrow, sca-sca-scarecrow
In my arms, I set your straw on fire
Ooh ooh A bit shy
If her lips brushed against my mouth
Ooh ooh Nobody moves
If I touch you, I'll brand you with a hot iron
Indelible, indelible
Your love is indelible
Indelible, indelible
Too bad if loving you is a crime
Indelible, indelible
Your love is indelible
Indelible, indelible
Indelidelidelidelible
Indelible, indelible
Indelidelidelidelible
Indelible, indelible
Indelidelidelidelible
Indelible, indelible
Your love is indelible
Indelible, indelible
Too bad if loving you is a crime
Indelible, indelible
Your love is indelible
Indelible, indelible
Indelidelidelidelible

SONG MEANING

Indélébile captures that electric moment when two strangers lock eyes and the world tilts off its axis. Christophe Willem sings as a bewildered king in checkmate, instantly stripped of defenses by one hypnotic glance, while Zaho answers with playful challenge. The word indélébile means indelible or impossible to erase, and that is exactly how this love feels—tattooed on the heart, louder than reason, and stronger than any self-control.

Metaphors burst like fireworks: a chessboard in turmoil, a lightning-quick fan opening, a bulletproof vest thrown aside, even a scarecrow set ablaze. Each image shows desire crashing through caution and leaving a permanent mark. The chorus repeats like a stamp: Ton amour est indélébile—your love is forever. It is a song about surrendering to passion even if it might be a crime, celebrating the fearless thrill of being branded by love for life.
