Coeur Voyageur Lyrics in English by M. Pokora

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Coeur Voyageur by M. Pokora from French to English.
Sur les quais de la gare
On the station platforms
Je les vois qui s'en vont
I see them leaving
Je savais bien que tôt ou tard
I knew that sooner or later
Je devais faire ma place parmi les lions
I had to make my place among the lions
On doit se rendre à la raison
We must face the facts
Pour vous j'écris mon histoire
For you I write my story
Et c'est tant mieux
And it's all the better
Si c'est tant mieux au fond
If it's all the better deep down
J'ai le cœur voyageur
I have a wandering heart
Qui se perd à l'horizon
That gets lost on the horizon
Chercher le bonheur
To seek happiness
La meilleur des raisons
The best of reasons
Le cœur voyageur
The wandering heart
Qui a grandit au loin
That grew up far away
Face à la solitude
Faced with loneliness
Des lendemains
Of tomorrows
Dans ces aéroports des souvenirs dans la peau
In these airports, memories in my skin
De décor en décor pas de marche arrière
From place to place, no turning back
Pas le temps pour les sanglots
No time for tears
Je rêvais de grandeur
I dreamed of greatness
Caresser l'infini
To touch infinity
Des regrets au coin du lit
Regrets by the bed
J'ai le cœur voyageur
I have a wandering heart
Qui se perd à l'horizon
That gets lost on the horizon
Chercher le bonheur
To seek happiness
La meilleure des raisons
The best of reasons
Le cœur voyageur
The wandering heart
Qui a grandit au loin
That grew up far away
Face à la solitude
Faced with loneliness
Des lendemains
Of tomorrows
Toujours sur le départ
Always on the go
Toujours sur le départ
Always on the go
J'ai le cœur voyageur
I have a wandering heart
Qui se perd à l'horizon
That gets lost on the horizon
Chercher le bonheur
To seek happiness
La meilleur des raisons
The best of reasons
Le cœur voyageur
The wandering heart
Qui a grandit au loin
That grew up far away
Face à la solitude
Faced with loneliness
Des lendemains
Of tomorrows
Le cœur voyageur
The wandering heart
Qui se perd à l'horizon
That gets lost on the horizon
Chercher le bonheur
To seek happiness
La meilleur des raisons
The best of reasons
Le cœur voyageur
The wandering heart
Qui a grandit au loin
That grew up far away
Face à la solitude
Faced with loneliness
Des lendemains
Of tomorrows

Did you like this lyrics translation?

voyageur — traveler

Voyageur means "traveler" or "voyager." While "voyage" (journey) is common, voyageur as a noun for the person is less frequently featured in song titles or prominent lyrics, making it stand out.

In "Coeur voyageur," M. Pokora uses it to describe a "traveling heart" – a heart that is constantly seeking, exploring, and moving on. This personification of the heart as a traveler beautifully encapsulates the song's themes of wanderlust, self-discovery, and the search for happiness across horizons.
