La Nuit Lyrics in English Les Choristes

Home / Lyrics Translation / Les Choristes / La Nuit

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Nuit by Les Choristes from French to English.

O night, come bring to the earth

The calm enchantment of your mystery

The shadow that escorts you is so gentle

So sweet is the concert

Of your voices singing hope

So great is your power

Turning everything into a happy dream

O night, O leave still to the earth

The calm enchantment of your mystery

The shadow that escorts you is so gentle

Is there beauty as lovely as the dream?

Is there truth sweeter than hope?

SONG MEANING

Picture nightfall gently draping the world in a velvet cloak: “La Nuit” invites us into that magical moment when every sound softens and every star seems to whisper. The choir praises the moonlit calm, calling it an enchanting mystery where shadows feel tender and the "concert" of nighttime voices sings of pure hope. In this peaceful atmosphere, even everyday worries melt into a rêve heureux—a happy dream—crafted by the night’s quiet power.

The singers yearn for this serenity to linger, posing playful questions: Is there any beauty greater than a dream? Is there any truth sweeter than hope? Their words suggest that nighttime is not just darkness but a creative canvas, turning silence into music and doubt into promise. By celebrating night as a friend rather than a fear, the song reminds us that hope can bloom most brightly when the lights are low.
