F... Comme Femme Lyrics in English by Salvatore Adamo
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song F... Comme Femme by Salvatore Adamo from Italian to English.
Elle est éclose un beau matin, au jardin triste de mon cœur
She bloomed one beautiful morning, in the sad garden of my heart
Elle avait les yeux du destin, ressemblait-elle à mon bonheur ?
She had the eyes of destiny, did she resemble my happiness?
Oh, ressemblait-elle à mon âme ? Je l'ai cueillie, elle était femme
Oh, did she resemble my soul? I picked her, she was woman
Femme avec un F rose, F comme fleur
Woman with a pink F, F like flower
Elle a changé mon univers, ma vie en fut toute enchantée
She changed my universe, my life was completely enchanted by it
La poésie chantait dans l'air, j'avais une maison de poupée
Poetry sang in the air, I had a doll's house
Et dans mon cœur brûlait ma flamme, tout était beau, tout était femme
And in my heart burned my flame, everything was beautiful, everything was woman
Femme avec un F magique, F comme fée
Woman with a magic F, F like fairy
Elle m'enchaînait cent fois par jour au doux poteau de sa tendresse
She chained me a hundred times a day to the sweet post of her tenderness
Mes chaînes étaient tressées d'amour, j'étais martyre de ses caresses
My chains were woven with love, I was a martyr to her caresses
J'étais heureux, étais-je infâme ? Mais je l'aimais, elle était femme
I was happy, was I wicked? But I loved her, she was woman
Un jour, l'oiseau timide et frêle vint me parler de liberté
One day, the timid and frail bird came to speak to me of freedom
Elle lui arracha les ailes, l'oiseau mourut avec l'été
She tore off its wings, the bird died with the summer
Et ce jour-là, ce fut le drame et malgré tout, elle était femme
And that day, it was the drama and despite everything, she was woman
Femme avec un F tout gris, fatalité
Woman with an all-gray F, fate
À l'heure de la vérité, il y avait une femme et un enfant
At the hour of truth, there was a woman and a child
Cet enfant que j'étais resté contre la vie, contre le temps
This child that I had remained against life, against time
Je me suis blotti dans mon âme et j'ai compris qu'elle était femme
I nestled into my soul and I understood that she was woman
Mais femme avec un F ailé, foutre le camp
But woman with a winged F, f*ck off

fatalité — fate / destiny
Fatalité translates to "fate" or "destiny," but it carries a stronger connotation of an unavoidable, often negative, outcome. It's a word that evokes a sense of powerlessness against predetermined events.
In the song, it appears as "Femme avec un F tout gris, fatalité," marking a dramatic shift in the narrative. It signifies the moment the protagonist realizes the inevitable, darker side of his relationship, making it a pivotal and emotionally charged word.
