Chez Moi Lyrics in English Dalida
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Chez Moi by Dalida from French to English.
Chez moi
Back home
Chez moi y'avait le ciel bleu sur la mer
Back home there was blue sky over the sea
Le pain blanc comme le sable
Bread white like the sand
Et le soleil rouge du désert
And the desert's red sun
Le jasmin dans les branches
Jasmine in the branches
Ami de mes jeunes désirs
Friend to my young desires
Mais je ne crois plus au retour
But I don’t believe in going back anymore
Car chez moi n'est qu'un souvenir
Cause home’s only a memory
Y'avait là l'odeur de la terre
There was the smell of earth
Le vent chaud de notre plage
The warm wind from our beach
Toutes avaient un goût amer
They all had a bitter taste
Je voudrais m'en aller loin des villes
I’d like to get away far from the cities
Chez moi je voudrais revenir
I want to come back home
Mais je ne crois plus au retour
But I don’t believe in going back anymore
Car je le sais qu'à tout jamais
Cause I know it’s forever
Chez moi n'est plus qu'un souvenir
Home’s nothing but a memory now
