Paroles et traduction Jessye Belleval - Faire en sorte

Faire en sorte

Elle esquisse un sourire
Pour effacer la fatigue
Que l'on pourrait lire sur son visage
Elle ne doit pas faiblir
Même si son coeur navigue
Entre la détresse et le naufrage

Oui pou èt on fanm fò jodi
Fow fè an sòt
Dé lié twavay é pi fanmi
Fè pliss ki zòt

Sa fragilité est sa force
Elle est ce qui transperce
Le coeur d'un homme
Quand toute seule elle sait faire face
Au métier qu'elle exerce
Être mère en somme
C'est se battre pour exister
Combattre plus qu'un homme
Toujours donner sans compter

Oui pou èt on fanm fò jodi
Fow fè an sòt
Dé lié twavay é pi fanmi
Fè pliss ki zòt
Pou èt on fanm fow jodi
Palé pli fò
E tout moun ké tann sa nou lé di
Nou pa ka mò

Etre forte
C'est c'qu'on est!
Faire en sorte
On connait!
Deja forte
C'est c'qu'on est!
Etre forte
On connait! Yeah!

Pi tan la ka pasé mé ayin pa ka changé
Changé fo sa changé
Deja pou yon i pa ni assé lè adan an jouné
Me nou pa ka lagué
Ni de projet ka fèt an tèt ay
Me pa ka rivé
Fow toujou lité
Levé couché rouviré pou demin sa ricoumencé
É toujou espéré

Etre forte
C'est c'qu'on est!
Faire en sorte
On connait!
Deja forte
C'est c'qu'on est!
Etre forte
On connait! Yeah!

Pi tan la ka pasé mé ayin pa ka changé
Deja pou yon i pa ni assé lè adan an jouné
Ni de projet ka fèt an tèt ay
Me pa ka rivé
Levé couché rouviré pou demin sa ricoumencé

Penser à prendre soin d'elle
Comme une femme actuelle
Se ditelle
Mais comment faire
Quand il y a tant à faire
Quand il y a tant à faire

Etre forte
C'est c'qu'on est!
Faire en sorte
On connait!
Deja forte
C'est c'qu'on est!
Etre forte
On connait! Yeah!

Stand Strong

She cracks a smile
To erase the fatigue
You could read on her face
She must not falter
Even if her heart navigates
Between distress and drowning

Yes, you women are strong today
To carry out a duty
Between work and family
Do more than others

Your fragility is your strength
It's what pierces
The heart of a man
When you know how to cope alone
With the profession you practice
To be a mother in short
You have to fight to exist
To fight more than a man
Always to give without counting

Yes, you women are strong today
To carry out a duty
Between work and family
Do more than others
To be a strong woman today
Speak louder
And everyone will hear what we have to say
We will not die

To be strong
It's what we are!
To work hard
We know how!
Already strong
It's what we are!
To be strong
We know! Yeah!

But time has passed but nothing has changed
Something must change
Because there isn't enough time in a day for just one
But we don't let go
And there are projects that are made in my head
But it doesn't happen
You have to always fight
To get up, go to bed and turn around so that tomorrow it starts again
And always hope

To be strong
It's what we are!
To work hard
We know how!
Already strong
It's what we are!
To be strong
We know! Yeah!

But time has passed but nothing has changed
Because there isn't enough time in a day for just one
And there are projects that are made in my head
But it doesn't happen
To get up, go to bed and turn around so that tomorrow it starts again

To think about taking care of herself
Like a modern woman
She tells herself
But how to do it
When there is so much to do
When there is so much to do

To be strong
It's what we are!
To work hard
We know how!
Already strong
It's what we are!
To be strong
We know! Yeah!
