La Vie Est À Nous Lyrics in English by Indochine
L'assaut translates to "the assault" or "the attack." It's a strong, dynamic word that evokes a sense of urgency and determination.
In the song, the phrase "À l'assaut de nos étoiles" (To the assault of our stars) is particularly striking. It transforms the abstract idea of reaching for one's dreams into a powerful, almost military, campaign. This metaphorical use makes the word memorable and highlights the song's theme of seizing life with vigor.
Indochine's "La Vie Est À Nous" is an anthem of defiant optimism and a call to seize life with both hands! The lyrics are all about overcoming past struggles and embracing a future filled with possibility. They sing, "Nous sommes prêts à partir Et à gravir les montagnes et les plaines" [We are ready to leave And to climb the mountains and plains], showing a clear determination to move forward.
This song is a powerful declaration of self-worth and ambition. Indochine proclaims, "Oui nous sommes les reines et les nouveaux rois" [Yes we are the queens and the new kings], asserting a new sense of power and control. It's about leaving behind the "jours et les nuits anciennes" [old days and nights] and claiming a beautiful life, because, as they say, "La vie est à nous aussi" [Life is ours too]. It's a rallying cry to chase your dreams and dance through life, even after having "tombés bien bas" [fallen so low].
