Text

Source language: Polish

CzekajÄ…c na spotkanie

I lubię nawet czekać
na Twoje wstawanie o szóstej nad ranem
na to jak odczytasz
moją poranną krótką wiadomość tekstową
- niespodzianka z kroplą bólu -
w języku włoskim
w języku miłości
Buon giorno, angelo mio

I lubię czekać na spotkanie
to umówione na dziesiątą
na święte nasze gadanie
o wszystkim i o niczym
bo słowa kolcem stoją
a miłość - jak franca - gorzka

I choć rozum z sercem się biją
wiem że nie możemy się więcej poranić
bólu aż nadto w jednym tylko rozstaniu
Remarks about the translation
British English, please.

Oczywiście nie tłumaczymy włoskiej "wstawki"...;)
franca - dawniej smiertelna choroba weneryczna
myślę, że można to przetłumaczyć niedosłownie, bo dziś funcjonuje to słowo w idiomatycznym, przenośnym znaczeniu: np. "damn" lub podobnie...

Title
Aspettando un appuntamento
Translation
Italian

Translated by brusurf
Target language: Italian

Aspettando un appuntamento

E piuttosto mi piace aspettare
il tuo risveglio alle 6 del mattino
quando leggi il mio breve messaggio mattutino
- una sorpresa con una goccia di dolore –
in italiano
lingua dell’amore
Buon giorno, angelo mio

E mi piace aspettare un appuntamento
schedulato per le dieci
per il nostro sacrosanto colloquio
su tutto e niente
poichè le parole sono come spine
e l’amore - maledetto! - è tanto amaro.

E nonostante la mente ed il cuore
lottino tra loro
so che non possiamo essere feriti
c'è abbastanza dolore in un solo addio.

"e l'amore è troppo amaro, come il fiele" (??)

"e l'amore --maledetto/dannato sia-- è tanto amaro! (??)

Just guessing...

I like Lev's latter suggestion!

"e l'amore - maledetto! - è tanto amaro"

Aneta, about the last line, I'd translate it as "c'è abbastanza dolore in un solo addio".

I'd also like to get brusurf's feedback! What do you think about our decisions, @brusurf?

In which case (sorry Aneta, I wasn't anymore connected, I just read your post on the late), according to Lev's suggestion, I would translate into French by "Et l'amour - maudit soit-il - est si amer"

"c'è abbastanza dolore in un solo addio".

Dear Francky, I know poems are difficult to transalate, because we should feel/understand an author's feelings and read between lines first... Here I'm the author, so it's easier, because I can explain what I meant. But I'm not sure if I can do it precisely.
Ok, I'll try once again...

in this particular case = with this man, in this situation when even "words are like thorns".

But it is still about love considered in general, "love" is sitil a general term here. That's just how the "person speaking" (author) felt love in that time...She just considered it bitter, even if it could be different in other situations.

Et l'amour - maudit soit-il - est si amer" looks good to me, though my French is not enough to say this for sure. But I trust our experts!

Thank you for your work, Francky, Alex and Lev.

One more thing, Alex.
I can see that brusurf forgot to translate the title which was included in the text.

CzekajÄ…c na spotkanie:
"Aspettando un appuntamento"?

("czekajÄ…c" grammatically is ppa = participium praesentis activvi )

Yes, "Aspettando un appuntamento" is the best choice!

sorry about my delay :-(
I agree the change considering that I really did not know how to translate that part.
Thanks
I'm going to modify it.

Hi brusurf,
You have not translated the title/first verse yet (CzekajÄ…c na spotkanie/Waiting for a rendezvous)...

I was suggesting: "Aspettando un appuntamento" and Alex agreed. How about you?

Sorry, it's my fault! I'll correct all and accept the translation

Alex, but you haven't added the first verse (title) to the translation. The first verse wasn't translated at all - that's why I once gave you the hint.

I'm sorry I don't understand you, brusurf.

I mean your translation is lacking one line - the first line. Compare it with Polish, English and French version.
You should have started not from: "E piuttosto mi piace aspettare", but from "Aspettando un appuntamento". See what I mean?

No problem, brusurf!
Mistakes happen, we all make them from time to time, but thanks to the cooperative work of Cucumers we finally are able to get the best translation which satisfises us. I'm sorry for my "clinging to details".
I'm also very grateful for your work on my text. Thank you.
