Aloft - Van Der Graaf Generatorперевод на французский




Aloft
En l'air
Whispers of a wind to lift you off the ground,
Des murmures de vent pour te soulever du sol,
The breath of air that'll take you where it will,
Le souffle d'air qui t'emporte il veut,
This flight of fancy carries you until you know for sure
Ce vol de fantaisie te porte jusqu'à ce que tu sois sûr
There's no going back
Qu'il n'y a pas de retour
To where you were before,
tu étais avant,
Now you've lost the knack.
Maintenant, tu as perdu l'habitude.
With best-laid plans you once flattered to deceive,
Avec des plans bien conçus, tu as autrefois flatté pour tromper,
Of fatted calf were intent to eat your fill.
De veau gras, tu avais l'intention de te rassasier.
Perpetual motion carries you but still you know for sure
Le mouvement perpétuel te porte, mais tu sais quand même avec certitude
That you can't keep track
Que tu ne peux pas suivre
And you can't keep score
Et tu ne peux pas garder le score
There's no going back any more.
Il n'y a plus de retour en arrière.
You were tethered
Tu étais amarré
Eyes and ears peeled tightly on the ground,
Les yeux et les oreilles collés au sol,
Wondering whether
Te demandant si
What goes up is certain to come down...
Ce qui monte est sûr de redescendre...
Steady measures,
Des mesures régulières,
Learn to take the whole thing in the round.
Apprends à prendre le tout dans sa rondeur.
Keep on talking,
Continue de parler,
For that's all that's keeping you aloft
Car c'est tout ce qui te maintient en l'air
It was awkward
C'était maladroit
Holding in your breath before the off.
Retenir ton souffle avant le départ.
Now you travel, though you're not so eager to arrive.
Maintenant, tu voyages, même si tu n'as pas très envie d'arriver.
On the journey what respect you earn is token,
Sur le voyage, le respect que tu gagnes est symbolique,
Faith in progress goes unspoken
La foi dans le progrès reste tacite
And that's all that's keeping you alive.
Et c'est tout ce qui te maintient en vie.
And you know it's not the going, it's the getting there
Et tu sais que ce n'est pas le voyage, c'est l'arrivée
That'll slow you, so you really can't remember where
Qui te ralentira, donc tu ne te souviens vraiment pas
You were heading when you started;
Tu te dirigeais quand tu as commencé ;
All was eloquence but now it's all hot air.
Tout était éloquence, mais maintenant, c'est de l'air chaud.
Draw breath in apprehension,
Respire avec appréhension,
No safety features left in place,
Aucune fonction de sécurité n'est en place,
Your sentence in suspension.
Ta phrase en suspens.
You're clinging on, a basket case.
Tu t'accroches, un cas désespéré.
You didn't want to tell me
Tu ne voulais pas me le dire
About your secret passion.
À propos de ta passion secrète.
What dummy would you sell me
Quel imbécile me vendrais-tu
With such unfashionable haste?
Avec une telle hâte démodée ?
Hold it steady,
Tiens bon,
Can't afford to let direction drift.
On ne peut pas se permettre de laisser la direction dériver.
Are you ready?
Es-tu prêt ?
The denouement when it comes is swift.
Le dénouement, quand il arrive, est rapide.
Are you joking? Were you hoping for some jolly japes?
Tu plaisantes ? Espérais-tu des farces joyeuses ?
Eat those words or spit them out before they choke you.
Mange tes mots ou crache-les avant qu'ils ne t'étouffent.
Failing progress
Échec du progrès
From this moment
À partir de ce moment
I don't see you making your escape.
Je ne te vois pas t'échapper.
And you know it's not the going, it's the getting there
Et tu sais que ce n'est pas le voyage, c'est l'arrivée
That'll get you, that'll get you, no-one lets you
Qui te prendra, qui te prendra, personne ne te le fait savoir
Know you're slowly in the process of forgetting where
Tu es en train d'oublier lentement
You were heading when you started.
Tu te dirigeais quand tu as commencé.
All was eloquence
Tout était éloquence
Or was it all hot air?
Ou était-ce de l'air chaud ?
So the pay-off's due,
Donc, la récompense est due,
Now you've told your tale.
Maintenant, tu as raconté ton histoire.
All the words you used
Tous les mots que tu as utilisés
Are exhaled.
Sont exhalés.
