Belle Lyrics in English La Belle Et La Bête

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Belle by La Belle Et La Bête from French to English.
Quiet town, on a little cloud
Where the days stay perfectly still
Where people, from early morning, chat
About everything and nothing
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
The baker carries his brimming tray
Of good old bread from his bakery
Since we got here
People are strangers to me
In the streets that cry with boredom
Morning, Belle
Morning, sir
Where are you going
To my friend the bookseller
I just finished a wonderful story
About an ogre, a King, some beans
Very interesting, Marie, the baguettes, and hop to it
Head in the clouds and that daring little air
Of a wild cat under an umbrella
She doesn't speak our language
She's always in the clouds
It's really true she's strange, Mademoiselle Belle
Hello
Hello
Say hi to the family
Hello
Hello
Kiss your wife!
I need six eggs
You wanna ruin us
I wanna live something other than this life
Belle
Morning, I'm bringing back the book I borrowed
What? Already?
Yeah, I devoured it in one night
Do you have anything else
Since yesterday? No, alas
That's okay, I'll take
that one
That one? But you've read it twice already
It's my favorite
I love swashbuckling novels
Full of magic and enchanted princes
Well, if you love it that much, I'll give it to you
But sir
I insist
Thanks, thanks so much
Head elsewhere with dreams in her eyes
We don't know what to think of her
She always seems absent
Or buried in her novels
What a mystery to us is that Mademoiselle Belle
It's the most beautiful of novels
And this whole passage enchants me, you see
She meets Prince Charming
But she doesn't know till chapter three
We gotta admit her name
Fits her like a glove
'Cause her beauty is unmatched
But beneath that angel face
She's still very strange
It's true she looks like nobody
No, she looks like nobody
That girl looks like nobody
She's Belle
Wow, you never miss your mark, Gaston
You're the greatest hunter in the world
The best
No beast has the slightest chance of beating you
No girl either, for that matter
None, Le Fou, and I've set my sights on that delicious girl
The inventor's daughter
Exactly
She's the lucky one I'm gonna marry
Uh, but
The prettiest girl in town
No doubt, but
The only one pretty enough and lucky enough to be chosen by me
Yeah, sure, but how do you
The very moment I saw her, naive as she is
I fell in love with her
She's the only one down here
That I find worthy of me
And I fully intend to marry that young lady
He's divine, he's spine-tingling
Mister Gaston, what a handsome man
My heart races, I'm gonna faint
Only he can give you such a thrill
Hello
Sorry
All good
Of course
Keep your fish
I want sausages
One portion
Ten meters
of Brie
Sorry
and plenty of it
If you please
The soles
is dry
are green
Put on your glasses
I wanna live something other than this life
I'll make an excellent husband for Belle
Head elsewhere, lost in her own world
She's a strange young lady
She's fanciful and odd
A gulf separates us
It's true she looks like nobody
No, she looks like nobody
That girl looks like nobody
She's Belle
Hello!
Hello!
Hello!
Hello!

SONG MEANING

Imagine a picture-postcard village waking up: bakers juggling trays of fresh bread, neighbors swapping small-talk, and a chorus of cheery “Bonjour!” filling the streets. In this bustling routine stands Belle, her mind already far away in the pages of swashbuckling novels and enchanted princes. While everyone else is content with the predictable rhythm of market stalls and morning errands, she craves a life that’s bigger than baguettes and polite chit-chat.

The song paints Belle as both admired and misunderstood. Townsfolk whisper that she is odd, yet they cannot deny her beauty or bright curiosity. Meanwhile the boastful hunter Gaston decides she is the trophy bride he deserves, setting up a clash between stale tradition and Belle’s thirst for adventure. Beneath the lively greetings and comic gossip, the lyrics celebrate individuality, imagination, and the courage to dream beyond the borders of an “ordinary” life.
