Translation of the song lyrics On était beau - Laurent Voulzy, Alain Souchon

On était beau (original)

On était beau
On avait des bottes hautes
On avait du daim sur le dos
On était si beau
Des boucles sur nos manteaux
On avait des idéaux
Des idéaux
On était beau
On avait des bottes hautes
On avait du daim sur le dos
On était si beau, on était si beau
Des boucles sur nos manteaux
On avait des idéaux
Des idéaux

(translation)

We were beautiful
We had high boots
We had suede on our backs
We were so beautiful
Buckles on our coats
We had ideals
Ideas
We were beautiful
We had high boots
We had suede on our backs
We were so beautiful, we were so beautiful
Buckles on our coats
We had ideals
Ideas
