Ça Ira Lyrics in English Vitaa , Slimane

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ça Ira by Vitaa from French to English.
La, lalala, lalala, lala
La, lalala, lala
They told us "that's life"
We do what we can, that's how it is
One more day in paradise
Be nice, work and shut up
They told us "that's life"
Is it the heart or the head? Doctor, tell me
Nobody talks about love around here anymore
Without Beauty, what would've the Beast done?
Even if it's not, not, not that easy
I wanna keep my child's soul
Look at the world, how depressed it is
But you act like you got time
It'll be okay, the worst is over
We can't let each other fall
Stand up, stand up, resist one more time
It'll be okay, oka-a
There's no more smiles at home
Me, I'm the clown at the party
Even if I've only got one song
To soothe the mind
Sometimes I come back to my senses
I tell myself men aren't made for that
I tell my son "be careful
Happiness is scarce, don't get used to it"
Even if it's not, not, not that easy
I wanna keep my child's soul
Look at the world, how depressed it is
But you act like you got time
It'll be okay, the worst is over
We can't let each other fall
Stand up, stand up, resist one more time
It'll be okay, it'll be okay
La, lalala, lalala, lala
La, lalala, lala
La, lalala, lalala, lala
La, lalala, lala
It'll be okay, the worst is over
We can't let each other fall
Stand up, stand up, resist one more time
It'll be okay, it'll be okay
It'll be okay, the worst is over
We can't let each other fall
Stand up, stand up, resist one more time
It'll be okay, it'll be okay

SONG MEANING

“Ça Ira” brings together French power duo Vitaa and Slimane for an energizing pep-talk wrapped in pop-gospel vibes. From the very first la-la-las, the singers look at a gloomy world where people are told, “That’s life, just work hard and stay quiet.” They confess feeling the same sadness everyone does, yet insist on keeping a childlike spirit, cracking jokes, and soothing minds with music. Their verses paint real worries – lost smiles at home, advising a son to protect his rare moments of happiness – while still poking fun at despair like a clown at a party.

The catchy chorus flips the mood: “Ça ira, le pire est passé” (“It’ll be alright, the worst is over”). It is a rallying cry to stand up, lean on each other, and “resist once more.” The song reminds listeners that even when optimism feels naïve, choosing hope is an act of strength. Sing along, lift your chin, and let every la-la-la push you forward – because, as Vitaa and Slimane promise, it will be okay.
