Dans Le Vert De Tes Yeux Lyrics in English by Salvatore Adamo
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Dans Le Vert De Tes Yeux by Salvatore Adamo from Italian to English.
Dans le vert de ses yeux
In the green of her eyes
Il y avait d'autres terres
There were other lands
Dans l'immense clairière
In the immense clearing
Des châteaux fabuleux
Fabulous castles
Et rien n'était chimère
And nothing was an illusion
Dans le vert de ses yeux
In the green of her eyes
Dans le vert de ses yeux
In the green of her eyes
Il y avait l'espérance
There was hope
Un jour je m'en souviens
One day, I remember
Elle m'invita sans méfiance
She invited me without suspicion
Au pays qui est le sien
To the country that is hers
Au pays de ses yeux
To the country of her eyes
Elle marchait devant moi
She walked in front of me
Elle sautillait légère
She skipped lightly
Sur le sentier étroit
On the narrow path
Que bordait la bruyère
Bordered by heather
Mais chacun de mes pas
But each of my steps
Faisait crouler la terre
Made the earth crumble
Un abîme s'est creusé
An abyss opened up
Dans le vert de ses yeux
In the green of her eyes
Et sans même un adieu
And without even a goodbye
Je la vis s'éloigner
I saw her move away
Et plus je l'appelais
And the more I called her
Et plus je la perdais
And the more I lost her
J'ai perdu mon amour
I lost my love
Dans un pays d'amour
In a country of love
Et j'ai cherché en vain
And I searched in vain
Pour retrouver le chemin
To find the path
Qui mène sous d'autres cieux
That leads under other skies
Au pays de ses yeux
To the country of her eyes

Did you like this lyrics translation?
chimère — chimera / illusion
Chimère translates to "chimera" or "illusion". It's a word rooted in mythology, referring to a mythical beast, but here it's used to describe something that is a fanciful dream or an unrealizable hope.
In the song, Adamo sings "Et rien n'était chimère" (And nothing was an illusion), suggesting that the magical world in her eyes felt incredibly real and tangible to him, not just a figment of his imagination. This word adds a touch of poetic depth and wonder to the lyrics.
