Chuchotement

by Jessica Leia

/

about

Written in a harmonic minor key, “Chuchotement” sounds like an old, haunted, folk song. With acoustic guitar, airy strings, and elegant bass and drums, “Chuchotement” plays out like a lullaby as Jessica Leia sings in rich tones (and in French) about the subtle and beautiful whispering that occurs in the world when one listens with their heart.

lyrics

Verset 1
Le monde semble si étrange quand tu écoutes avec ton cœur.
Ce n'est pas la meme chose que quand on parle.
Mais ç'est aussi fort que la mer.

The world seems so strange when you listen with your heart
It’s not the same thing as when one speaks
But it’s as loud as the sea

Pré-Refrain 1
Et je ne sais pas comment le comprendre.
Ou exactement comment l'expliquer, mais c'est juste un peu comme…

And I don’t know how to understand it
Or exactly how to explain it, but it’s just a bit … like

Refrain 1
Chuchotement. Tout le temps. Tout le monde. Chuchotement.

Whispering. All the time. All the world. Whispering.

Verset 2
Et le monde est si étrange. Qui ose écouter avec son cœur?
Parce-que c’est mieux que quand on parle.
Et ç'est plus beau que la mer.

And the world is so strange. Who dares to listen with their heart?
Because it’s better than when one speaks.
And it’s more beautiful than the sea.

Pré-Refrain 2
Et je n'ai pas besoin de le comprendre.
Ni l'expliquer non plus. J’aime juste ecouter… a

And I don’t need to understand it.
Nor to explain it. I just like to listen… to

Refrain 2
Chuchotement. Les montagnes. Et le vent. Chuchotement.

Whispering. The mountains. And the wind. Whispering.

Refrain 3
Suis-je tout seul? Est-ce que tu entends? Chantons ensemble… de chuchotement…

Am I all alone? Do you hear? Let’s sing together… of whispering…
