Un jour, tu verras

“Un jour, tu verras” by François Jacqueline is a poetic and romantic song that paints a vivid picture of a serendipitous encounter between two souls destined to meet. The lyrics are imbued with a sense of fate and destiny, suggesting that the meeting will happen 'somewhere, anywhere, guided by chance.' This notion of fate is a common theme in romantic literature and music, where love is often portrayed as an inevitable force that brings people together regardless of circumstances.

The song progresses with the imagery of the couple walking hand in hand through the streets, their hearts filled with joy and contentment. The passage of time is acknowledged, but it is depicted as something that will not diminish their happiness. Instead, the evening will cloak their hearts, described as 'two thieves who keep their happiness.' This metaphor suggests that their love is something precious and perhaps even illicit, something they must protect and cherish.

As the song continues, the couple arrives at a 'gray square' where the cobblestones are soft to their 'gray souls.' This setting, though seemingly mundane, becomes a magical place where they can dance to the music of a street organ played by a blind man. The music, though simple and melancholic, becomes the most beautiful and lovely tune for them. The dance symbolizes their love, a quiet and intimate moment away from the noise of the city, where they can lose themselves in each other's eyes and dance towards 'the end of the world' and 'a deep night.' The repetition of the opening lines at the end of the song reinforces the cyclical nature of their love story, suggesting that this encounter is timeless and eternal.
