The Impossible Dream - Roger Whittakertranslation in French
------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------
In
this
song,
Quixote
explains
his
quest
and
the
reasons
behind
it
...
in
doing
so,
Dans
cette
chanson,
Quichotte
explique
sa
quête
et
les
raisons
qui
la
sous-tendent
...
ce
faisant,
He
captures
the
essence
of
the
play
and
its
philosophical
underpinnings.
Il
capture
l'essence
de
la
pièce
et
ses
fondements
philosophiques.
(For
me,
it
is
absolutely
magical.)
(Pour
moi,
c'est
absolument
magique.)
To
dream
...
the
impossible
dream
...
Rêver
...
le
rêve
impossible
...
To
fight
...
the
unbeatable
foe
...
Combattre
...
l'ennemi
imbattable
...
To
bear
...
with
unbearable
sorrow
...
Supporter
...
une
douleur
insupportable
...
To
run
...
where
the
brave
dare
not
go
...
Courir
...
là
où
les
braves
n'osent
pas
aller
...
To
right
...
the
unrightable
wrong
...
Réparer
...
le
tort
irréparable
...
To
love
...
pure
and
chaste
from
afar
...
Aimer
...
pur
et
chaste
de
loin
...
To
try
...
when
your
arms
are
too
weary
...
Essayer
...
quand
tes
bras
sont
trop
fatigués
...
To
reach
...
the
unreachable
star
...
Atteindre
...
l'étoile
inaccessible
...
This
is
my
quest,
to
follow
that
star
...
Telle
est
ma
quête,
suivre
cette
étoile
...
No
matter
how
hopeless,
no
matter
how
far
...
Peu
importe
à
quel
point
c'est
désespéré,
peu
importe
à
quel
point
c'est
loin
...
To
fight
for
the
right,
without
question
or
pause
...
Pour
lutter
pour
le
bien,
sans
question
ni
pause
...
To
be
willing
to
march
into
Hell,
for
a
Heavenly
cause
...
Être
prêt
à
marcher
en
Enfer,
pour
une
cause
céleste
...
And
I
know
if
I'll
only
be
true,
to
this
glorious
quest,
Et
je
sais
que
si
je
suis
fidèle
à
cette
glorieuse
quête,
That
my
heart
will
lie
will
lie
peaceful
and
calm,
Que
mon
cœur
mentira
sera
paisible
et
calme,
When
I'm
laid
to
my
rest
...
Quand
je
serai
mis
au
repos
...
And
the
world
will
be
better
for
this:
Et
le
monde
sera
meilleur
pour
cela
:
That
one
man,
scorned
and
covered
with
scars,
Qu'un
homme,
méprisé
et
couvert
de
cicatrices,
Still
strove,
with
his
last
ounce
of
courage,
Se
soit
toujours
efforcé,
avec
sa
dernière
once
de
courage,
To
reach
...
the
unreachable
star
...
D'atteindre
...
l'étoile
inaccessible
...
