Mes Mains Sur Tes Hanches Lyrics in English by Salvatore Adamo
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mes Mains Sur Tes Hanches by Salvatore Adamo from Italian to English.
Sois pas fachée si je te chante les souvenirs de mes 15 ans
Don't be angry if I sing to you the memories of my 15 years
Ne boude pas si tu es absente de mes rêveries d'adolescent
Don't sulk if you are absent from my adolescent daydreams
Ces amourettes insignifiantes ont preparé un grand amour
These insignificant little loves have prepared a great love
Et c'est pourquoi je te les chante et les présente tour à tour
And that's why I sing them to you and present them one by one
Oui c'est pourquoi je te les chante et les présente tour à tour
Yes, that's why I sing them to you and present them one by one
Mais laisse mes mains sur tes hanches
But leave my hands on your hips
Ne fais pas ces yeux furibonds
Don't make those furious eyes
Oui tu l'auras ta revanche tu seras ma dernière chanson
Yes, you'll have your revenge, you'll be my last song
Dans chaque fille que j'ai connue c'est un peu toi que je cherchais
In every girl I've known, it's a bit of you I was looking for
Quand dans mes bras je t' ai tenu moi je tremblais je comprenais
When I held you in my arms, I trembled, I understood
Que tu es sortie d'une fable pour venir habiter mon rêve
That you came out of a fable to come and live in my dream
Et ce serait bien regrettable que notre amour ainsi s'achève
And it would be very regrettable that our love should end like this
Oui se serait bien regrettable que notre amour ainsi s'achève
Yes, it would be very regrettable that our love should end like this
Mais laisse mes mains sur tes hanches
But leave my hands on your hips
Ne fais pas ces yeux furibonds
Don't make those furious eyes
Oui tu l'auras ta revanche tu seras ma dernière chanson
Yes, you'll have your revenge, you'll be my last song
Laisse mes mains sur tes hanches
Leave my hands on your hips
Ne fais pas ces yeux furibonds
Don't make those furious eyes
Oui tu l'auras ta revanche tu seras ma dernière chanson
Yes, you'll have your revenge, you'll be my last song
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

Did you like this lyrics translation?
amourettes — flings / dalliances
Amourettes translates to "flings" or "dalliances". It's a charming and somewhat old-fashioned French word that perfectly captures the idea of fleeting, lighthearted romantic encounters.
In the song, Adamo uses it to refer to his insignificant teenage crushes, explaining that these "amourettes insignifiantes" (insignificant flings) ultimately prepared him for a great love. It's a unique and evocative word that adds a touch of nostalgic tenderness to the lyrics.
