Interpassion Lyrics in English Yelle

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Interpassion by Yelle from French to English.
Hi, my name is, I'm called
The one who tangles
Consonants and vowels
I am international
Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you?
Hello, hey!
I love people, I find it good
When we all hug each other
When we mix our vowels
When we give each other a leg up
I like the consonants less
Of those we haven't called
I press the intercom
I am interpassionate
Interpassion
Interpassion
Interpassion
I am interpassionate
Interpassion
Interpassion
Interpassion
I am interpassionate
Hello
What's your name
Are you from California
I love people, I find it good
When we all hug each other
When we mix our vowels
When we give each other a leg up
I like the consonants less
Of those we haven't called
I press the intercom
I am interpassionate
Interpassion
Interpassion
Interpassion
I am interpassionate
Interpassion
Interpassion
Interpassion
I am interpassionate
Interpassion
Interpassion
Interpassion
I am interpassionate
Interpassion
Interpassion
Interpassion
I am interpassionate

SONG MEANING

Interpassion feels like a playful, neon-lit trip around the world. Yelle introduces herself as “the one who tangles consonants and vowels,” then hops from French to Spanish to English as if she is flicking through radio stations on a summer road trip. The chorus invents the word interpassion to capture her unstoppable curiosity: she is fueled by connection, hugs, shared words and the thrill of pressing the doorbell (“l’interphone”) to meet someone new. It is a bright celebration of being international at heart, where every greeting—Hola, Bonjour, “How are you?”—is an invitation to friendship.

Behind the candy-pop beat lies a sweet message about breaking linguistic walls. Yelle loves “mixing our vowels,” the open sounds that flow easily between languages, and feels less fond of hard consonants that shut people out. By blurring tongues and cultures she reminds us that passion for others can be the ultimate universal language. Whether you speak French, Portuguese or only “a little bit,” this song says you already belong to the global party.
