Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ne Te Retourne Pas by Céphaz from French to English.

You'd like to turn the page

Change the scenery

Forget, forget it all

For cloudless tomorrows

You'd like to drop the fear

What's weighing deep in your heart

Forget, forget it all

All those who gnaw a bit at happiness

I met somebody like you, yeah, on the road

On the road

Who didn't dare dance anymore

And life passes like a lovely summer

Take the good and the bad sides

Everything that makes you

To play yourself

Don't look back, pa-la-pa

Despite the winters and the low blows

Take life as it goes

Don't look back, pa-la-pa

Despite the winters and step by step

Take life as it goes

I've turned pages

Met faces

And I forget, I forget nothing

Neither my roots nor my landscapes

Each day has its glimmers

That surface deep in my heart

And I forget, I forget nothing, no

Neither the laughs nor the people who cry

I don't want you falling asleep

There, on your doubts

No doubt, no

Come on, let's dance

Don't look back, pa-la-pa

Despite the winters and the low blows

Take life as it goes

Don't look back, pa-la-pa

Despite the winters and step by step

Take life as it goes

Don't look back, pa-la-pa

Despite the winters and the low blows

Take life as it goes

Don't look back, pa-la-pa

Despite the winters and step by step

Take life as it goes

Don't look back

Despite the winters and the low blows

Take life as it goes

Don't look back

Despite the winters and step by step

Take life as it goes

Don't look back, pa-la-pa

Despite the winters and the low blows

Take life as it goes

Don't look back, pa-la-pa

Despite the winters and step by step

Take life as it goes

Don't look back, pa-la-pa

Despite the winters and the low blows

Take life as it goes

Don't look back, pa-la-pa

Despite the winters and step by step

Take life as it goes

SONG MEANING

“Ne Te Retourne Pas” (Don’t Look Back) is Céphaz’s sunny pep-talk for anyone tempted to run from their problems. Over a feel-good beat and the catchy pa-la-pa hook, the French-Gabonese singer urges us to turn the page, shake off fear, and welcome every new day — clouds, winters, cheap shots and all. Life, he says, races by like a gorgeous summer, so grab both the good and the bad because they all shape who you are.

The song balances forward motion with warm nostalgia: Céphaz himself has “turned pages” and explored new faces and places, yet he keeps his roots and memories close. His message is clear and danceable: don’t freeze in your doubts; keep stepping, keep dancing, and “take life as it comes.” If you need an anthem for courage, optimism, and a little shoulder shimmy, this is it!
