Belles Belles Belles Lyrics in English Claude François

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Belles Belles Belles by Claude François from French to English.
One day, my dad said, Son, I see you going out at night
At your age, there are things a boy has to know
Girls, you know, watch out
It's not what you think. They're all
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful like the day
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful like love
They'll drive you crazy with joy
Crazy with pain, but, believe me, even crazier
For them, for them, for them day by day
And then more and more girls you'll meet
Maybe even one night you'll forget to come home
The more you'll see, the more you'll have, and the more you'll understand
In those moments, you'll remember
That your old dad said They're all
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful like the day
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful like love
They'll drive you crazy with joy
Crazy with pain, but believe me, even crazier
For them, for them, for them day by day
One day at last, you'll see her, you can't be wrong
You'll wanna tell her I love you, but you won't be able to speak
In the blink of an eye, you'll be bound for better or worse
But there you'll hold real happiness
In the eyes of your heart she'll be
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful like the day
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful like love
Like I told your mama
You'll tell her, while kissing her, you're
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful like the day
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful like love
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful like the day
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful like love

SONG MEANING

“Belles Belles Belles” feels like a sparkling heart-to-heart between a warm-hearted dad and his curious teenage son. Over a catchy yé-yé beat, the father shares the great secret of growing up: girls are dazzling. He warns that their beauty will lift you sky-high with joy, then shake you with heartbreak, yet you will keep falling for them more every single day. The chorus – “Belles, belles, belles comme le jour… comme l’amour” – rings out like a kaleidoscope of first crushes, late-night walks, and dizzying emotions that make adolescence unforgettable.

By the second verse, the advice turns into a playful prophecy: the more girls you meet, the more you’ll learn, until one astonishing moment when you’re left speechless in front of the girl. In that instant, you’ll know real happiness and repeat the very words your dad once said to your mom – “Belle, belle, belle comme l’amour.” Claude François wraps this coming-of-age tale in pure pop sunshine, celebrating both the thrills and the tumbles of love while reminding listeners that, in the end, discovering true love is the sweetest adventure of all.
