Title
Je ne veux connaître ni ta ...
Text
Submitted by Francky5591
Source language: French

Je ne veux connaître ni ta philosophie, ni ta religion, ni ta tendance politique, peu m'importe que tu sois jeune ou vieux, riche ou pauvre, français ou étranger. Si je me permets de te demander quelle est ta peine, ce n'est pas par indiscrétion mais bien pour mieux t'aider.

Quand tu m'appelles, j'accours, mais assure-toi de m'avoir alerté par les voies les plus rapides et les plus sûres. Les minutes d'attente te paraîtront longues, très longues, dans ta détresse pardonne mon apparente lenteur.
Remarks about the translation
Bonjour à tous, voilà, je suis tout nouveau sur le site et donc je viens demander votre aide pour la traduction de ce texte qui est l'éthique des sapeurs pompiers de paris...ca serait peut-être pour un tatouage, on verra bien.
merciii :D

Translation
English

Translated by Ionut Andrei
Target language: English

I don't want to know your philosophy or your religion or your political opinion, I don't care if you are young or old, rich or poor, French or a foreigner. If I allow myself to ask you about your pain, that is not indiscretion, it's just to be able to help you better.

When you call me, I hurry up, but make sure to alert me by the fastest and surest ways. The minutes of waiting will seem long to you, too long, in your distress forgive my apparent slowness.

I've never heard or seen 'I run up' in this context. How about "I (will) come running"?

accourir = run up/rush up

but 'run up' without an object is not used in English...

Perhaps "I hurry up" would sound better.

About "If I allow...is not indiscretion", can a proposition that begins with "if" be subject of another proposition? (In French it is out of question, this combination doesn't work, but I'm not sure at all concerning the English.

If this is not correct, one needs to say "If I allow..., it is not indiscretion..."

just two little observations:
a) "If I allow...., *it* is not *due to* indiscretion";
b)"...forgive my *apparent* slowness."
