La Fille Dans L'Eglise Lyrics in English by Serge Lama
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Fille Dans L'Eglise by Serge Lama from French to English.
Elle est entrée dans l'église
She entered the church
La cigarette à la main
Cigarette in hand
Les seins nus sous la chemise
Bare breasts under her shirt
Et l'air de s'en foutre bien
And the look of not giving a damn
Elle est entrée dans l'église
She entered the church
La cigarette à la main
Cigarette in hand
Les seins nus sous la chemise
Bare breasts under her shirt
Et l'air de s'en foutre bien
And the look of not giving a damn
Elle a regardé l'église
She gazed at the church
Avec ses yeux délavés
With her faded eyes
En caressant sa chemise
While caressing her shirt
Pour s'aider à mieux rêver
To help herself dream better
Elle a jeté sa cigarette
She tossed her cigarette
Parce qu'elle lui brûlait la main
Because it burned her hand
Sans même baisser la tête
Without even lowering her head
C'est son pied qui l'a éteint
Her foot put it out
Mais qui donc
But who then
Qui donc était-elle
Who then was she
Parmi ces statues, ces Saints?
Among these statues, these Saints?
C'est elle qui avait des ailes
She was the one with wings
Elle qui parlait Latin
The one who spoke Latin
Allez donc dire à vos papes
Go tell your popes
À vos saintes sacristies
Your holy sacristies
J'ai vu une fille en savates
I saw a girl in slippers
Qui ressemblait à Marie
Who looked like Mary
Elle est entrée dans l'église
She entered the church
La cigarette à la main
Cigarette in hand
Avec, dessous sa chemise
With, beneath her shirt
Un cœur beau comme un chagrin
A heart as beautiful as heartbreak
Elle cherchait le lieu où mettre
She was looking for a place to put
Sa douleur qui faisait froid
Her pain that was cold
Elle cherchait le lieu où naître
She was looking for a place to be born
Pour une seconde fois
For a second time
Elle est entrée dans l'église
She entered the church
La cigarette à la main
Cigarette in hand
Les seins nus sous la chemise
Bare breasts under her shirt
Et l'air de s'en foutre bien
And the look of not giving a damn
Elle est entrée dans l'église
She entered the church
La cigarette à la main
Cigarette in hand
