Translation of the song lyrics Eh ! Ben (Hey There) - Dalida

Eh ! Ben (Hey There) (original)

Eh ben
Toi qui te croyais si forte
Toi qui semblais si sûre de toi
Qu’est-ce qu’il t’arrive là?
Eh ben
Voilà que soudain tu t’emportes
Et tu te vois déjà dans ses bras
Lui qui n’a pas un regard pour toi
Allons, oublies-le
Lui et son rire dans les yeux
Lui qui s’amuse avec ton cœur
Lui et ses airs vainqueur
Tu n’y vois donc plus clair
Tu n’es donc plus sur terre
Je voudrais que tu te réveilles
Mais je vois bien que mes conseils
Dès qu’ils entrent par une oreille
S’en vont par l’autre

Eh ! Ben (Hey There) (translation)

Well then
You who thought you were so strong
You who seemed so sure of yourself
What's happening to you there?
Well then
Suddenly you get carried away
And you already see yourself in his arms
He who doesn't have a look for you
Come on, forget it
Him and his laughter in his eyes
He who plays with your heart
Him and his winning tunes
So you don't see clearly anymore
You are no longer on earth
I want you to wake up
But I see that my advice
As soon as they enter through one ear
They go the other way
