It's so

Fragile

A paper plane in the wind

Me, I'm

Drawing

I wanna be like dad

When I'm grown up

An airline pilot

Playing in the clouds

All the time

I'm five years old

And I'd really like to see

The other side of the wall

When I'm on the swing

It doesn't seem so hard

But who

Took my book

Who drowned the dog?

Mom

Tell Colombine

To open the bathroom

Or I'll kill her with my hands

I'm fifteen years old

And I don't have time

The bus won't wait

Especially this time

The driver will take me

Not to school at all

Maybe to Alaska

This idea isn't so crazy

I think

F*ck

Where'd I f*cking put my keys

It's late, gotta go home

I think I'm

A little drunk

But way less than Amandine

And we lost Benjamin

Look

I think they're puking

Both of them in the garden

And we have exams tomorrow

I'm twenty years old

I am the master of time

Of times, of Time

Of all time

If we walked more slowly

We would go back in time

Honey

Find me my tie

I'm late

Faster

Before I beat you

I love you but I'm tired

And I'm so pressed for time

I'm not even shaved

For f*ck's sake

I'm forty years old

And I don't have the time anymore

That I had at twenty

To say that you're beautiful

My angel

But in a gust of wind

I lost my hair

I've lost a few teeth

I no longer look

The way I want to

I blink my eyes

The universe is so white

In my gray pupil

And my wrinkles tell me

That I'm sixty years old

And I didn't see them pass by

The few watchmakers

Who came to warn me

That rather than loving to write

My time

Was better spent loving

People

It's better to love people

When you're still

Twenty

Did you like this lyrics translation?

Have you ever felt like life is moving too fast? Ycare’s song Une Vie, which means "A Life" in English, perfectly captures that feeling. The song takes us on a whirlwind tour through one person's life, showing us snapshots at different ages. We start at age five, with innocent dreams of being a pilot like his dad. Then we jump to fifteen, full of teenage drama and dreams of escape. At twenty, he feels invincible, like the "master of time," partying with friends and feeling like forever is his to spend.

But as he gets older, the tone shifts dramatically. At forty, life is a stressful rush, and there's no time left for the important things, like appreciating his partner. Finally, at sixty, he looks back with regret. He realizes he spent his life focused on his own ambitions instead of what truly matters: loving the people around him. The song's powerful message is a reminder to us all: cherish your loved ones now, because life goes by in the blink of an eye.
