Текст и перевод песни Vicky Leandros - Ne Me Quitte Pas

Ne Me Quitte Pas

Ne me quitte pas.
Il faut oublier,
Tout peut s′oublier,
Qui s'enfuit déjà.
Oublier le temps
Des malentendus
Et le temps perdu
À savoir comment.
Oublier ces heures
Qui tuaient parfois
À coups de pourquoi
Le cœur du bonheur.
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas.

Moi, je t′offrirai
Des perles de pluie
Venues de pays
Où il ne pleut pas.
Je creuserai la terre
Jusqu'après ma mort
Pour couvrir ton corps
D'or et de lumière.
Je ferai un domaine
Où l′amour sera roi,
Où l′amour sera loi,
Où tu seras reine.
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas.

Ne me quitte pas.
Je t'inventerai
Des mots insensés
Que tu comprendras.
Je te parlerai
De ces amants-là
Qui ont vu deux fois
Leurs cœurs s′embraser.
Je te raconterai
L'histoire de ce roi
Mort de n′avoir pas
Pu te rencontrer.
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas.

On a vu souvent
Rejaillir le feu
De l'ancien volcan
Qu′on croyait trop vieux.
Il est, paraît-il,
Des terres brûlées
Donnant plus de blé
Qu'un meilleur avril.
Et quand vient le soir,
Pour qu'un ciel flamboie,
Le rouge et le noir
Ne s′épousent-ils pas?
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas.

Ne me quitte pas.
Je ne veux plus pleurer,
Je ne veux plus parler.
Je me cacherai là
À te regarder,
Danser et sourire
Et à t′écouter
Chanter et puis rire.
Laisse-moi devenir
L'ombre de ton ombre,
L′ombre de ta main,
L'ombre de ton chien.
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas,
Ne me quitte pas.

Ne Me Quitte Pas (Don't Leave Me)

Don't leave me.
We must forget
We can forget everything
That which is already fading.
Forget the times
Of misunderstandings
And the time wasted
Trying to figure out how.
Forget those times
That sometimes killed
With endless questions
The heart of happiness.
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me.

I will offer you
Pearls of rain
From countries
Where it never rains.
I will dig into the earth
Until after my death
To cover your body
With gold and light.
I will create a realm
Where love will be king
Where love will be law
And you will be queen.
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me.

Don't leave me.
I will invent for you
Senseless words
That you will understand
I will speak to you
Of those lovers
Who saw twice
Their hearts ignite.
I will tell you
The story of the king
Who died from not
Being able to meet you.
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me.

We have often seen
Fire erupt
From an ancient volcano
We thought was too old.
Apparently there are
Scorched lands
Producing more wheat
Than a better April.
And when evening comes
So that a sky may blaze
Don't red and black
Become one?
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me.

Don't leave me.
I don't want to weep,
I don't want to speak.
I will hide there
To watch you,
To dance and smile
And to listen to you
Sing and then laugh.
Let me become
The shadow of your shadow
The shadow of your hand,
The shadow of your dog.
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me,
Don't leave me.
