C'est La Vie Lyrics in English by L'Arc〜en〜Ciel
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song C'est La Vie by L'Arc〜en〜Ciel from Japanese to English.
Oui c'est la vie oui c'est la vie
Yes, that's life, yes, that's life
(French)
Oui c'est la vie, oui c'est la vie
Oui c'est la vie oui c'est la vie
Yes, that's life, yes, that's life
(French)
気ままに揺らめいて
kimama ni yurameite
Swaying freely as I please
Oui c'est la vie, oui c'est la vie
Oui c'est la vie oui c'est la vie
Yes, that's life, yes, that's life
(French)
想いは焦がれる
omoi wa kogareru
My feelings burn with longing
誰か待ってるような気分に心うかれて
dare ka matteru you na kibun ni kokoro ukarete
My heart lifts, as if I were waiting for someone
休日の扉をくぐればいつになく
kyuujitsu no tobira o kugureba itsu ni naku
When I step through the door into my day off
通りは華やかな装い行きかう幸福
toori wa hanayakana yosooi ikikau koufuku
The streets are dressed up like never before, happiness passing back and forth
指先は寂しくあなたを探して
yubisaki wa sabishiku anata o sagashite
My lonely fingertips search for you
Oui c'est la vie, oui c'est la vie
Oui c'est la vie oui c'est la vie
Yes, that's life, yes, that's life
(French)
遠くの歌声をたどって行けばもうあたりは黄昏
tooku no utagoe o tadotte ikeba mou atari wa tasogare
Following a distant singing voice, it's already dusk all around
This time やさしい声が
This time yasashii koe ga
This time, a gentle voice
This night 街に降りて
This night machi ni orite
This night, it drifts down over the town
This time 今宵かぎりの
This time koyoi kagiri no
This time, just for tonight
This night 時を忘れる
This night toki o wasureru
This night, I forget the time
心なしか苦い煙草はため息まじり
kokoronashika nigai tabako wa tameiki majiri
Somehow the bitter cigarette comes mixed with sighs
微笑む人波に揺れては消えてゆく
hohoemu hitonami ni yurete wa kieteyuku
Swaying in the smiling crowds, then fading away
どうやら配役はうつろな通行人のきざし
douyara haiyaku wa utsurona tsuukounin no kizashi
It seems I'm cast as nothing more than a vacant passerby
それならひっそり彩り添えるよ
sorenara hissori irodori soeru yo
If so, I'll quietly add some color
Oui c'est la vie, oui c'est la vie
Oui c'est la vie oui c'est la vie
Yes, that's life, yes, that's life
(French)
気ままに揺らめいて
kimama ni yurameite
Swaying freely as I please
時にはこんな日もいいかもしれない
toki ni wa konna hi mo ii ka mo shirenai
Sometimes a day like this might be nice
地図にない所へやさしく漂えば
chizu ni nai tokoro e yasashiku tadayoeba
If I drift gently somewhere that's not on any map
知らずに口ずさむ時間を忘れて
shirazu ni kuchizusamu jikan o wasurete
Before I know it, I'm humming along, forgetting the time
Oui c'est la vie, oui c'est la vie
Oui c'est la vie oui c'est la vie
Yes, that's life, yes, that's life
(French)
気ままに揺らめいて
kimama ni yurameite
Swaying freely as I please
Oui c'est la vie, oui c'est la vie
Oui c'est la vie oui c'est la vie
Yes, that's life, yes, that's life
(French)
想いは焦がれる
omoi wa kogareru
My feelings burn with longing
Oui c'est la vie, oui c'est la vie
Oui c'est la vie oui c'est la vie
Yes, that's life, yes, that's life
(French)
