angeluk2 Posted January 25, 2009 at 08:24 PM Posted January 25, 2009 at 08:24 PM ahhh why is translating french songs so hard!! i think id rather translate a french song that was straight forward and less imagery and play on words,etc! But then no one is making me do it so anyone know french here well enough to work out what this is trying to say?Le fil de nos yeuxCe silence qu'on entendait à deuxC'est toute ta force qui me sertJe roule vers Mulholland après la mer i have(literal translation):The thread of our eyesThis silence they heard two(i have been thinking bout this line so long i dont even understand english anymore! )It's all your strength that serves me I roll towards Mulholland after the sea Quote CHOCOLATE is the answer....I don't give a damn what the question was!
Bradders Posted January 25, 2009 at 08:34 PM Posted January 25, 2009 at 08:34 PM (edited) That second line is a tricky one i'd have said it say's: 'This silence once heard by two' but that doesn't seem to fit right with the rest of it. Edited January 25, 2009 at 08:35 PM by Bradders Quote

angeluk2 Posted January 25, 2009 at 08:48 PM Posted January 25, 2009 at 08:48 PM Thanks Brad and Sam.Sam the problem is view is not fil??everywhere i look it translates as thread now I keep reading it and almost grasping it but....i dont think we will get anything exact i just wanted something people can understand,so you listen to the song and have the meaning in your mind.I have a train of thought going for the 'This silence they heard two' line,maybe it means they were both silent,when people looked to them they both said nothing,that sort of thing you know what i think im just going to post what i have as im sick of this verse!

angeluk2 Posted January 25, 2009 at 08:50 PM Posted January 25, 2009 at 08:50 PM thanks sophie,i tried the together thing too but surely the writter would have just used the french for together rather than two?Thankyou so much for your help,all of you,but my eyes are going all so im posting what i have,the literal translation and they can make of it what they want Quote CHOCOLATE is the answer....I don't give a damn what the question was!

It's just that entendre has different meanings.. That line can also be translated as what I said...Don't you wish French was an easy language? Quote
