Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Attentat by Imen Es from French to English.

I gave you my love

You cut it

Relax, there's my wrong heart

I saw the future in us

You doubled it

Besides that, we were radiant

Why did you take my number?

If you're going to leave me so soon?

Me, I didn't want your money so much

No one will know

That you're a liar, yeah

I love you, you knew it

You're killing me, I'm bleeding, everything stops

It was a false alarm

But no one could stop me

In my heart it's an attack

Even if I pretend

That it doesn't affect me

I'm devastated Inside

But I keep smiling on the outside

In my heart it's an attack

Even if I pretend

That it doesn't affect me

I'm devastated Inside

But I keep smiling on the outside

In my heart it's an attack

Atten, atten, attack

In my heart it's an attack

Atten, atten, attack

I think of you at night, my life is falling apart

I miss all our hours on the phone

When I see you in the city

My heart is struggling

And I tell myself I've already made too much effort

I wanted to be the one

That you see at breakfast

The one who will be there

When you're pathetic

The one who will give you help downstairs

And who will keep you away from evil up above

I love you, you knew it

You're killing me, I'm bleeding, everything stops

It was a false alarm

But no one could stop me

In my heart it's an attack

Even if I pretend

That it doesn't affect me

I'm devastated Inside

But I keep smiling on the outside

In my heart it's an attack

Even if I pretend

That it doesn't affect me

I'm devastated Inside

But I keep smiling on the outside

In my heart it's an attack

Atten, atten, attack

In my heart it's an attack

Atten, atten, attack

I'm forgetting you, it's over

Even if I still love you

I'm forgetting you, it's over

Even if I still love you

Don't send a text message

I won't send you an SOS

Don't send a text message

I won't send you an SOS

In my heart it's an attack

Even if I pretend

That it doesn't affect me

I'm devastated Inside

But I keep smiling on the outside

In my heart it's an attack

Even if I pretend

That it doesn't affect me

I'm devastated Inside

But I keep smiling on the outside

In my heart it's an attack

Atten, atten, attack

In my heart it's an attack

Atten, atten, attack

SONG MEANING

Picture a love story that goes off like a firework inside the heart, leaving glitter on the outside and ashes within. In “Attentat,” Franco-Tunisian singer Imen Es compares a brutal breakup to a sudden attack, describing how she offered pure love only to see it “cut in two.” While the beat stays catchy, her lyrics reveal a battle zone: she is “demolished on the inside,” yet she keeps a bright smile for the world. The song captures that familiar tug-of-war between showing strength and feeling shattered, making heartbreak feel both cinematic and real.

Imen Es moves from sorrow to self-protection with clever wordplay. She refuses his money, calls out his lies, and promises there will be no more late-night SOS messages. By the final chorus she is still hurt, but she owns her healing: forgetting him may feel “dead,” yet it is the first step toward reclaiming her life. “Attentat” is an anthem for anyone who has masked pain with confidence, proving that even after an emotional explosion, the heart can rebuild stronger than before.
