Title	Encore Une Histoire
Text Submitted by ramarren	Source language: French Un beau jour d'Ã©tÃ© j'emballe tout prÃªte Ã partir Une senteur de vacances se glisse dans mes romans. A peine le temps d'une bouteille et j'arrive quand tu dois y aller. Un souvenir de plus, prÃªte Ã cicatriser. A chaque fois c'est pareil, Tu seras comme irrÃ©el, Car chaque fois c'est pareil Encore une histoire qui se Termine Ã la page d'un Ã©tÃ© sans nuages et C'est ton image moi que je Garde le souvenir d'une histoire de passage J'ai laissÃ© tes promesses collÃ©es sur mon visage Des silences qui m'emportent un peu plus loin du rivage. Le dÃ©cor a changÃ©, l'Ã©motion retombÃ©, L'affaire est rÃ©alisÃ©e que je te t'avais oubliÃ©
Remarks about the translation	Song "Encore Une Histoire" by Margaux Avril

Title	Once again a story
Translation English Translated by mbouquet	Target language: English On a nice summer day I pack everything, ready to go A smell of holidays sneaks into my novels. Barely the time of a bottle and I arrive when you have to go. Once again a memory, ready to heal Each time, it is the same, You will be like unreal, Each time, it is the same Once again a story which Ends on the page of a cloudless summer and It is your image that I Keep, the memory of a short-term story I left your promises stuck on my face Your silences which drift me away from the shore The landscape has changed, emotion has faded It is a done deal, I have already forgotten you
Remarks about the translation	I'm not sure about the meaning of two parts of the French text: 1. "C'est ton image moi que je Garde le souvenir d'une histoire de passage" Which is not clear without commas, and which I translated with these commas: "C'est ton image, moi, que je Garde, le souvenir d'une histoire de passage" 2. "L'affaire est rÃ©alisÃ©e que je te t'avais oubliÃ©" Which doesn't sound common French, and which I translated into "It is a done deal, I have already forgotten you" (in French: "C'est une affaire rÃ©glÃ©e, je t'ai oubliÃ©") I also translated "histoire de passage" into "short-term story". You may find a better translation for this expression.

	ramarren Number of messages: 291	mbouquet Would it be too impertinent to ask you to listen the song in Youtube and try to understand the unclear phrases by ear? http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=OGFmyi2QDrw&feature=endscreen I've got the general meaning of the song and generally I'm satisfied, but still, like they say, noblesse oblige
