Home / Lyrics Translation / ZAZ / Demain C'est Toi

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Demain C'est Toi by ZAZ from French to English.

I trace paths that only wait for you

To you, the child who comes, I precede your steps

I whisper your name in the breath of my voice

I will offer you the world, you whom I do not know

I open my heart wide to you like one opens their hands

I hope for you joys as great as mine

Tomorrow it's you

I learn the alphabets of each of your gestures

I sing to you my dreams of spaces and the Far West

I want for you love, the rare and the precious

All the beauty of the world within reach of your eyes

Fists heated to white, I forge for tomorrow

The joys that I wish for you as great as mine

Tomorrow it's you

I give you the keys that open all the chests

I pulverize the walls of the prisons that are offered to you

I run to infinity so as not to leave you

All that I haven't told you is because you know it

It's because you know it

To you, the child who comes like a little morning

I hope for you joys as great as mine

Tomorrow it's you

SONG MEANING

Demain C'est Toi feels like a radiant love letter sent through time to an unborn child. With every line, ZAZ paints a hopeful roadmap where she clears paths, melts prison-like walls, and gifts all the beauty of the world to the little soul she hasn’t met yet. The song overflows with parental tenderness: she whispers the child’s name to the wind, forges a brighter tomorrow with white-hot fists, and vows that happiness will be as boundless as her own.

Beneath the gentle folk melody lies a powerful message: the future belongs to the next generation, so we must nurture it with love, freedom, and limitless possibilities. By addressing “the child who comes, like a small dawn,” ZAZ reminds us that every act of care today lights the way for tomorrow. Listening to this track feels like being wrapped in a warm promise that the world can indeed be kinder, brighter, and tailor-made for new dreams.
