Lunettes bleues, lunettes roses [English translation]

[1st verse]

When we can devour a mashed potatoes plate

Without before digging a little volcano

When we can cross a crosswalk

Without on the big white sticks

[Chorus]

Then we have lost our children eyes

Those blue glasses, pink glasses

To watch the world differently

A nice day we put them away, negligently

Those blue glasses, pink glasses

And here we became big

Blue glasses, pink glasses

In our eyes a dose

Of humor and poetry

Blue glasses, pink glasses

And on the world we put

A much more pretty look

[2nd verse]

When we can browse newspapers without tracing

Mustaches on people pictures

When we can look a steamed window

Without thinking drawing a face in it

[Chorus]

Then we have lost our children eyes

Those blue glasses, pink glasses

To watch the world differently

A nice day we put them away, negligently

Those blue glasses, pink glasses

And here we became big

Blue glasses, pink glasses

In our eyes a dose

Of humor and poetry

Blue glasses, pink glasses

And on the world we put

A much more pretty look

[3rd verse]

It's like some paint

To the tip of the eyes

Those blue glasses, pink glasses

To repaint the walls

In the color that we want

Blue glasses, pink glasses

[Outro]

Blue glasses, pink glasses

In our eyes a dose

Of humor and poetry

Blue glasses, pink glasses

And on the world we put

A much more pretty look
