Les Yeux De La Mama Lyrics in English Kendji Girac

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Les Yeux De La Mama by Kendji Girac from French to English.
When I'm cold she becomes light
Like a sun in my life
When I'm hurt she becomes prayer
She tells me everything in silence
When I suffer she suffers with me
When I laugh she laughs out loud
My songs are often for her
She'll always be my wonder
When I'm not up to it
She lifts me higher than the sky
She's the splendor of splendors
She's the sap, she's the honey
It's her blood running through my veins
And memories by the hundreds
Cradle my heart with a thousand stars
She's my quest, she's my grail
My God, leave them to me
The beautiful eyes of mama
Take away even everything else
But not the softness of her gestures
She carried me before the world
She still carries me every second
She'll carry me away with her
I'll always be faithful to her
When I get hurt she's softness
Like a caress in my life
When I give up she turns lioness
And lifts me back up with patience
When I've got delusions of grandeur
She brings me back without hurting me
She's in this hellish world
My star among the stars
My God, leave them to me
The beautiful eyes of mama
Take away even everything else
But not the softness of her gestures
She carried me before the world
She still carries me every second
She'll carry me away with her
I'll always be faithful to her
My God, leave them to me
The beautiful eyes of mama
Take away even everything else
But not the softness of her gestures
She carried me before the world
She still carries me every second
She'll carry me away with her
I'll always be faithful to her
My God, leave them to me
The beautiful eyes of mama
Take away even everything else
But not the softness of her gestures
She carried me before the world
She still carries me every second
She'll carry me away with her
I'll always be faithful to her

SONG MEANING

Les Yeux De La Mama is Kendji Girac’s heartfelt love letter to the most important woman in his life – his mother. Across the verses, the French-Spanish singer paints her as a warm guiding light: when he’s cold, she becomes light; when he’s hurt, she turns into a gentle prayer. Her silent support lifts him higher than the sky, and even in an “infernal world” she shines like his personal star. The chorus is a plea to heaven: take anything you want, but please leave him “the beautiful eyes of mama,” the symbol of all her tenderness, courage, and unwavering faith in him.

In just a few poetic lines, Kendji stitches together the stages of their bond – from the moment she carried him before the world to the promise that she will carry him in her heart forever. The song becomes a universal anthem for anyone who has felt the nurturing power of a mother’s love: protective like a lioness, sweet like honey, ever-present like blood in our veins. Listening to it is like stepping into a musical hug, reminding us that no matter how high we rise or how low we fall, those comforting eyes are always watching over us.
