Ma Faille (Lyrics)

 

Que nos éclats de rire en rafale / Our bursts of laughter in gust

Pour chasser l’ennui et le mal / To relieve boredom and evil

Loin des châtiments, des morales / Far from the punishments, the morals

Tant que ton c½ur et le mien s’emballent / As long as your heart and mine are racing

Tes gestes, tes soupirs / Your gestures, your sighs

Je saurai les lire / I would read them

Pour enfin trouver les mots, les mots / To finally find the words, the words

Qui pourront maudire / Who can curse

A jamais bannir / For ever banish

Les chimères qui nous collent à la peau / The chimeras that stick us to the skin.

 

Tu seras ma bataille / You'll be my battle

Mon armure, ma faille / My armor, my weakness

Et j’en ferais des montagnes / (Idk how to translate it, it means something like "And i'd do my best")

Pour t’éviter les K.O d’un monde en pagaille / To spare you the K.O of a messy world

Oh oh oh oh

 

Mon armure, ma faille / My armor, my weakness

Et j’en ferais des montagnes / (Idk how to translate it, it means something like "And i'd do my best")

Pour t’éviter les K.O d’un monde en pagaille / To spare you the K.O of a messy world

 

Si parfois nos âmes se rebellent / If sometimes our souls are rebelling

Et se perdent comme le chant des sirènes / And get lost as the sirens's song

Le jeu en vaut bien la chandelle, oh / The game is worth it, oh

Car la vie n’a jamais été si belle / Because life has never been so beautiful

Tant pis si la chance nous tourne le dos / So what if luck turns its back on us

On sourira pour de faux, de faux / We'll smile for fake, fake (Fake a smile)

Pour enfin maudire / To finally curse

A jamais bannir / For ever banish

Ces chimères qui nous collent à la peau. / Those chimeras that stick us to the skin.

 

I apologize for any mistakes, feel free to correct me :)

ORDINAIRE

 

I am a very ordinary girl

Sometimes I feel like doing nothing

I’d do music while drinking along

With my mother, my sisters, my brothers

But I must think of my career

I am a popular singer

 

You see me as a goddess

I am a woman, I'm not a princess

If I can make a confession

Is that when I sing I feel better

But this business is dangerous

The more you give, the more the world will want of you

 

One day, when you I’ll bee too tired

I will think of give away my place

I will do my farewell with class

Hoping to leave a trail

And mark lively in their hearts

No more than love and happiness

 

I love my next, I love my audience

All I want is that they understand each other

I do not care much about criticism

When I sing it to my audience

I'm not a circus animal

My life is music!

 

If I sing, it is for those who hear me

When I cry, it is to defend myself

I would like to make me understand

I would like to travel around the Earth

Before dying and being buried

See what the rest of the world has reserved

 

Around me, there is a war

Fear, hunger and misery

I wish that we all were brothers

That is why we are on earth

I'm nothing but a popular singer

I am nothing but a very ordinary woman

 

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH😍😍😍😍

TROIS HEURES VIGNT

 

I told you no ... it doesn’t mean anything

I was still very afraid yesterday

I needed time to think

I was still very young yesterday

 

But don’t you make that face

Everything will be fine you know

Because in the end ... where you go

I’ll go

 

We leave together ... OK, is decided

You want to take me away from here

Everything is planned, you organized everything

For tomorrow afternoon

 

My parents are waiting for me

Do not worry, I will come

For as always ... where you go

I’ll go

 

I will come

Twenty past three, “Place d'Italie”

I will come

The latest on the half hour

I will come ... of course

I will come ... for sure

You don’t need to fear

I will come

 

I will come

Twenty past three, I understood

I will come

The latest on the half hour

There’s no way ... it’s said

I will not change my mind

You don’t need to fear

I will come

 

Do not worry, I have confidence

You will never be fooled

Cause you know ... where you go

I’ll go

 

 

 

OMG. You mean Celine re recorded this song from Rene's funeral? I did not know this. :o :cry:

 

 

Thank you so very much for these translations! :)

This song was not re recorded, it's the remastered version... But I think it fits the album so well that way!

You're welcome! That's true, I think we can judge the album better if we know what the songs talk about...

No, she didn't re-record it. Listen closely. It's the young Celine's voice - not the mature, full voice of Céline 2016! :)

I'll put here the translations of the songs of the album "Encore Un Soir".

Feel free to point out if there are mistakes somewhere, I'll be happy to correct.

 

May the angels, God, the univers, Buddha or whatever you believe in BLESS YOU for all the hard work you put in translating those important lyrics (as it's the last record in which René was involved). :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

I was desperately hoping someone would translate the lyrics - that it happend that quick is SOOO GREAT!

I REALLY DO THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!!! :flowers: :flowers: :flowers:

Oh. My bad. I haven't heard the album yet. It's really sweet that she chose to put this song on her new CD. :wub:

Well, in my opinion choosing that song was "genius-manager René" last terrific move: Choosing a nearly forgotten tune of Céline's beginnings for this funeral. He KNEW that this would draw attention to the "Melanie"-album and to the first records of her! And he gave me also a last big present - although it was very hard saying goodbye to this terrific human being - but it was wonderful re-discovering all the hidden gems of her first albums!

Oh you're so kind... Thank you!

The moment I realized how beautiful those lyrics are, I wanted to share with everyone so they could appreciate this album the way it deserves...

TOUTES CES CHOSES

 

It is the wind that makes flying

A lock of hair

It is a day that is born

A laughter by corn of eye

A “Hello” to who pass

And we'll never see again

A child who runs

Crossing the street

 

A piece of burning wood

Some words of a chorus

The clock that we regulate

When autumn comes

It is the glow of a rose

In the middle of a garden

Life is all these things

Made of small details

 

The departure of a friend

The seasons that return

It is a voice in the night

Whispering "I love you"

It is the touch that we feel

When we hold hands

Life is all these things

Made of small details

 

It is a drawn heart

With your fingers on the window

It's a broken dream

And another to be born

Is to tell you every year

Happy Birthday

It is an oak tree

In front of a grandfather's house

 

It is the taste of a good wine

Standing in the kitchen

The morning light

The children who draw

It is time that flees

It is love that’s gone by

It is the sound of rain

That falls on the roof

 

The path we take

The question we keep

It is a voice in the night

Whispering "I love you"

The smile that dares

The tears that retain

Life is all these things

Made of small details

 

It's your voice in the night

Whispering "I love you"

Life is many things

Anyways!

 

Thank you so much for this translation. What beautiful lyrics . . and her voice is so full of emotion here, so beautiful.

 

The part about drawing a heart with fingers on the window gets me, too -- b/c remember the story she told about writing "Welcome home, Papa" on the windows with shaving cream, when Rene came home to Vegas from the hospital after his surgery in early 2014? Such a bittersweet memory.

Oh I didn't remember that story... The last part "it's your voice in the night whispering I love you" makes me think of René actually... When he wasn't able to speak, so it was possible that he whispered "I love you" to Celine. Her voice in this part breaks my heart.

I didn't remember that sotry either. What a neat thing to do. The way she sings that in the final chorus breaks my heart cuz you know what she was thinking about there...it's soooooo obvious and hard to miss. This song seems to be the most about him, although they all are!

Thank you so much for the translations!! I know a little bit of French, but only enough to catch a few words or phrases here and there. This helps me understand the meaning behind these beautiful songs so much more. :)

what shaving cream story?

I guess it's the story about how they wrote on Rene's mirror when he got home form the hospital. I think?

 

I have had the time of my life following this woman! Much love.
