Nous Lyrics in English Julien Doré

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Nous by Julien Doré from French to English.
We
We'll go see the sea
See if people are proud
Picture the water rising
Though we didn't know how to do a thing
We've got nothing left to lose
A bit of belly and ego
And a few tongues to loosen
To watch them enjoy themselves again
We, we, we
We don't give a f*ck about you
You can take everything
As long as we're tender, us
We, we, we
We don't give a f*ck about you
You can take everything
As long as we're tender, us
We
We'll go see the sea
See if the moon lights up
A few heads above water
A world where everything gets lost
Tomorrow's just yesterday
A bit left flat on our back
A bit hurt by the stones
We didn't want to lose
We, we, we
We don't give a f*ck about you
You can take everything
As long as we're tender, us
We, we, we
We don't give a f*ck about you
You can take everything
As long as we're tender, us
We, we, we
We
We, we, we
We

SONG MEANING

Julien Doré’s “Nous” is a poetic call to drop the weight of society’s pressure and escape to a place where we – the dreamers, the lovers, the slightly bruised – can simply breathe. Imagining a trip to the sea lit by the moon, Doré paints a cinematic scene: two rebels standing at the shoreline, watching the tide rise while caring little for material loss. Their only luggage is “a bit of belly and ego,” proof that imperfections are welcome on this journey of renewal. The chorus repeats like a mantra, “Nous on s’en fout de vous” (We don’t care about you), flipping the script on judgmental outsiders and celebrating a community built on tenderness, not trophies.

Under the surface, the song wrestles with disillusionment – yesterday’s mistakes, stones we could not drop – yet finds hope in unity. Doré reminds us that tomorrow is just “yesterday on its back,” so why not choose connection over competition? “Nous” invites listeners to let the waves wash away ego, lift their heads above water, and discover that real strength lies in being gentle together. Grab your headphones and meet him at the shoreline; the only ticket you need is an open heart.
