Lyrics and translation Sting feat. Edin Karamazov - Can She Excuse My Wrongs?




Can She Excuse My Wrongs?
Peut-elle excuser mes torts ?
Can she excuse my wrongs with virtue's cloak?
Peut-elle excuser mes torts avec le manteau de la vertu ?
Shall i call her good when she proves unkind?
Dois-je l’appeler bonne alors qu’elle se montre cruelle ?
Are those clear fires which vanish into smoke?
Ces feux clairs qui s’évanouissent en fumée ?
Must i praise the leaves where no fruit i find?
Dois-je louer les feuilles je ne trouve aucun fruit ?
No, no, where shadows do for bodies stand
Non, non, les ombres tiennent lieu de corps
Thou may'st be abus'd if thy sight be dimmed
Tu peux être abusée si ta vue est voilée
Cold love is like to words written on sand
L’amour froid ressemble à des mots écrits sur le sable
Or to bubbles which on the water swim
Ou à des bulles qui flottent sur l’eau
Wilt thou be thus abused still
Veux-tu être ainsi abusée encore
Seeing that she will right thee never?
Sachant qu’elle ne te rendra jamais justice ?
If thou cans't not o'ercome her will
Si tu ne peux pas surmonter sa volonté
Thy love will be thus fruitless ever
Ton amour sera ainsi toujours stérile
Wilt thou be thus abused still
Veux-tu être ainsi abusée encore
Seeing that she will right thee never?
Sachant qu’elle ne te rendra jamais justice ?
If thou cans't not o'ercome her will
Si tu ne peux pas surmonter sa volonté
Thy love will be thus fruitless ever
Ton amour sera ainsi toujours stérile
Was i so base, that i might not aspire
Étais-je si bas que je ne pouvais pas aspirer
Unto those high joys which she holds from me?
À ces joies élevées qu’elle me refuse ?
As they are high, so high is my desire
Comme elles sont élevées, ainsi est mon désir
If she this deny, what can granted be?
Si elle refuse, que peut-on m’accorder ?
If she will yield to that which reason is
Si elle veut céder à ce qui est raison
It is reason's will that love should be just
C’est la volonté de la raison que l’amour soit juste
Dear, make me happy still by granting this
Chérie, rends-moi heureux en m’accordant cela
Or cut off delays if that i die must
Ou mets fin aux retards si je dois mourir
Better a thousand times to die
Mieux vaut mourir mille fois
Than for to live thus still tormented
Que de vivre ainsi toujours tourmenté
Dear, but remember it was i
Chérie, mais souviens-toi que c’est moi
Who for thy sake did die contented
Qui pour toi ai fini par mourir content
Better a thousand times to die
Mieux vaut mourir mille fois
Than for to live thus still tormented
Que de vivre ainsi toujours tourmenté
Dear, but remember it was i
Chérie, mais souviens-toi que c’est moi
Who for thy sake did die contented
Qui pour toi ai fini par mourir content
