Destin Lyrics in English Kids United

Home / Lyrics Translation / Kids United / Destin

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Destin by Kids United from French to English.

There's no veils on my brothers' shutters

There's no opal around my fingers

Nor cathedral to hide my prayers

Just a little gold around my voice

I walk the roads and I walk the borders

I feel, I listen, I learn, I see

Time drips along the time zones

I take, I give, did I have a choice?

Such is my fate

I follow my path

That's how my hours go by

To the stubborn beat of my heart

From summer flames I fly to dark winters

From autumn rains to Indian summers

Frozen lands to the driest deserts

I come and go, the world's mine

I live on notes and I live on light

I spin to your shouts, your hands

Life sweeps me into the heart of all its mysteries

I see my tomorrows in your eyes

Such is my fate

I follow my path

That's how my hours go by

To the stubborn beat of my heart

I walk the roads and I walk the borders

I feel, I listen, I learn, I see

Time drips along the time zones

I take, I give, did I have a choice?

I get the blues from answering-machine beeps

I take the pain in airports

I live love miles away

And happiness on my phone

Such is my fate

I follow my path

That's how my hours go by

To the stubborn beat of my heart

Such is my fate

I follow my path

That's how my hours go by

To the stubborn beat of my heart

SONG MEANING

In "Destin", Kids United sing through the eyes of a young troubadour who owns no castles, jewels, or grand cathedrals. All that glitters for her is the gold in her voice. She criss-crosses roads and borders, gathering sights, sounds, and feelings, then pouring them back into song. Time slips by in different time zones, yet each tick is carried by the steady drum of her heartbeat, reminding us that music is both her compass and her currency.

The lyrics paint a life of dazzling contrasts: summer bonfires to winter shadows, frozen lands to scorching deserts, crowded airports to lonely voicemail beeps. There is homesickness and distance, but also the electrifying joy of sharing light with an audience whose eyes reflect her tomorrows. Accepting that constant motion is her fate, the singer invites us to celebrate our own journeys — to take what we learn, give what we can, and let the rhythm of our hearts guide us forward.
