Pas Beaux Lyrics in English Vitaa , Slimane

Home / Lyrics Translation / Vitaa / Pas Beaux

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Pas Beaux by Vitaa from French to English.

There are those who never have to make an effort

Since they were little, they have had everything to please

Far from home the train passed

Since I was a kid, a real tomboy

Don't do this, do like her

You're pretty, you have potential

You're nice, I'm formal

There is nothing to do

I don't feel beautiful

How beautiful are you?

I don't feel beautiful

But how beautiful you are

As if I were too much

I wasn't worth it

I'm not what I should be

Far from the model

Not beautiful, not beautiful

Not as it should be

Not beautiful, not beautiful

Since I was little, I have had nothing to do

Too many times that I wanted to leave the business

The silhouette in the mirror I'm going to make it for myself

I'm disgusted, I tell myself what's the point?

You have to be strong, you have to be big

Little fat one said the other children

I'm not strong, I'm not big

'Little fat one', I often tell myself

I don't feel beautiful

How beautiful are you?

I don't feel beautiful

How beautiful are you?

As if I were too much

I wasn't worth it

I'm not what I should be

Far from the model

Not beautiful, not beautiful

Not as it should be

Not beautiful, not beautiful

The more it goes, the more I think about it

The more I feel misunderstood

It's like an obvious fact of life

I went the distance

I paid the price

I lost confidence my friend

Not beautiful, not beautiful

Not as it should be

Not beautiful, not beautiful

Not as it should be

Not beautiful, not beautiful

SONG MEANING

Vitaa and Slimane turn the mirror on our deepest insecurities in Pas Beaux ("Not Beautiful"). Over a catchy, emotional pop beat, they swap verses about growing up feeling like they never fit the “perfect” mold: Vitaa paints the picture of a tomboy who heard constant comparisons to prettier girls, while Slimane recalls being teased as a “petit gros.” Their duet flips back and forth between haunting self-doubt ("Je me sens pas beau/belle") and the reassuring voice of the other singer insisting “Qu’est-ce que t’es beau/belle!”—a reminder that beauty is never just skin-deep.

The song is both vulnerable and empowering. By repeating the chorus “Pas beaux, pas comme il faut,” the duo exposes the damaging labels society sticks on anyone who looks or acts differently. Yet their harmonies also celebrate solidarity: when someone else sees your worth, it becomes easier to see it yourself. This track invites listeners to turn up the volume, silence their inner critic, and redefine beauty on their own terms.
