Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sourire by Les Nubians from French to English.
Réveillée, par le techno-beat du voisin, j'peux rien y faire
Woken up by the neighbor's techno beat, can't do a thing about it
J'frappes pour le faire taire, mais il s'en fout
I bang on the wall to shut him up, but he doesn't give a d*mn
Pas moyen de rester dans cet appart' de fous
No way I can stay in this crazy flat
Sortir, laisser l'inspiration venir
Gotta head out, let inspiration come
Les pavés de la ville me guident
The city's cobblestones guide me
Vers un chemin incertain
Down an uncertain path
D'humeur fébrile dans le décor urbain
Feverish mood in the urban scene
Et le sourire d'une petite fille
And the smile of a little girl
Illumine mon quotidien
Brightens up my everyday life
Ce sourire est un signe
That smile is a sign
Que tout n'est pas chagrin
That not everything's sorrow
Une fleur de béton m'inspire
A concrete flower inspires me
Une petite fille un sourire
A little girl, a smile
Ce refrain qui la fait rire
That chorus that makes her laugh
Quand la ville chavire
When the city sways
Une fleur m'inspire
A flower inspires me
