Titre	Paper Boat
Traduction Anglais Traduit par feroz	Langue d'arrivée: Anglais You let paper boats down the river, they say. "Waiting for you and you are not there" is written on each. I can't go on without you, I can't breathe, I can't laugh, I can't love. You let kites fly high, they say. "Why aren't you here?" are the words on each. When you leave me don't make me realize that, when you leave me do it that way.

And I think "...when you leave me do only that" would be better if : "when you leave me just do it" What do you think?

"Do only that" in contexts of the poem means leave me in such way that I still be thinking you are here while " just do it" says just leave me. Btw, FEROZ is name of my blackberry wine. I pick up the word from Spanish dictionary under word "sangre"(blood) and means something like "thirsty of blood".

	lilian canale Nombre de messages: 14972	OK feroz, let me see if I got it. "You let paper boats down the river, they say. "Waiting for you and you are not there" each replied. I can't go on without you, I can't breathe, I can't laugh, I can't love. You let kites fly high, they say. "Why aren't you here? each said. When you leave me don't make me realize that, when you leave me do it that way." Does this convey the meaning?

	lilian canale Nombre de messages: 14972	Oh...so those are messages written on the paper boats or kites. Hum...that changes things a little. Do you agree feroz?

	feroz Nombre de messages: 7	"is written on each of them" is literally translation, but I think "each replied" and "each said" is shorter and sounds better in the poem and meaning is the same. "breathe" or "breath" - I checked in dictionary, both is correct.

	lilian canale Nombre de messages: 14972	Hi feroz, The problem is that the meaning changes. We can choose shorter forms for a sentence if it reflects exactly what the original means, however in this case I think that it would not be clear that the sentence is "written" on a paper boat if we don't say so. For the words "breath" (noun) or "breathe" (verb), both exist, but in this case we need the verb.
