Translation of Dans le regard de l'autre from French to English
In the gaze of the other
I sought a landmark, I sought to please myself
I sought apostles
(In the gaze of the other)
In the gaze of the other
A light shone, a way of loving me
In which I wallow
(In the gaze of the other)
Only a mirror remains
To adjust my dance
To make up the story
Play the appearances
In the gaze of the other
I plunged my whole body
And at night, I fall asleep
Sighing my faults
In the gaze of the other
My self-esteem has taken its place
In disaster
In poultice
In the gaze of the other
I do my number
I still count who is the most beautiful
Who is the strongest
In the gaze of the other
I play the comedy, in my finest clothes
I parade head high
(In the gaze of the other)
In the gaze of the other
I did not want to see these hundreds of stories
Which are all ours
(In the gaze of the other)
Out of fear or simply
For lack of confidence
I seek a compliment
To go in its direction
To be proud of myself
To not take part
In my tastes, in my choices
I read all the looks
In the gaze of the other
My self-esteem has taken its place
In disaster
In poultice
In the gaze of the other
I do my number
I still count who is the most beautiful
Who is the strongest
In the gaze of the other
But now I look at you
Finally, I contemplate you
The Misses walk around
I see that we resemble each other
In the gaze of the other
So, are those who pierce
Like night appear
That the skin on the ribs
In the gaze of the other
My self-esteem has taken its place
In disaster
In poultice
In the gaze of the other
I do my number
I still count who is the most beautiful
Who is the strongest
In the gaze of the other
In the gaze of the other (in the gaze of the other)
In the gaze of the other (in the gaze of the other)
In the gaze of the other (in the gaze of the other)
In the gaze of the other (in the gaze of the other)
In the gaze of the other (in the gaze of the other)
