Blog #37 --Translating Songs--

Hi and welcome back to being so bored you actually checked this out! I actually got like views the other day, I wonder from who? So yeah, I translated Violet Hill by Coldplay. If you speak french, then hey check it out. If not, bah, whatevs.

Violet Hill



 c un froid et long décembre
de les toit je me souvient
de la neige
blanche neige

clairement je me souvient
des fenestre il nous regarde
gelé la, tout en bas

quand le futur est planifier
par un carnaval d’idiots
tu est bien mieux de te cacher

si tu m’aimes
pourquoi pas me le dire?

c un long and noir décembre
les banque sont des cathédrales
et un renard, est Dieu

les bibles ont des creux
pour les bayonnettes des prêtres
et leurs croix, haut les bras

enterre-moi dans l’honneur
ce cera signe que je meurt
et qu’un amour, refleur

si tu m’aimes
pourquoi pas me le dire?

je ne veux pas être soldat
ou le capitaine d’un navire
englouti, sans merci

si tu m’aime,
pourquoi pas me le dire?

j’ai apporté ma belle a Violet Hill
assis dans la neige
tout ce temps elle ne dit rien
hors si tu m’aime, pourquoi pas me le dire? si tu m’aime, pourquoi pas me le dire?

Character of the Day:
 Miles Richard

Appearances: Faceless, Needle and Thread, Pillow Talk, Needle and Chain, Ashenlust, Shambles.
Bio: Miles grows up not knowing a father that abandons his mother because of extreme poverty due to his gambling addiction. Eve (Miles' mother) is left for two weeks to live in the street with her little boy with just enough money to feed them until she is placed under the government's protection and lodged with welfare. Miles grows up very handsome, and gets away with wearing cheaper clothing because of his good manners with people and coolness. He lives in Brattleboro, Vermont, where he meets his first love: Kyle. Kyle and he have a torrid relationship that does not last long because Kyle dies mysteriously (he was probably murdered) but small-town Brattleboro's police doesn't really care enough to investigate further. Miles is left heartbroken and seeking comfort in being the utmost popular kid in his school. He wallows as much as he luxuriously bathes himself in popularity, drinking, parties and to his disgust, girls. He's only really ever kissed them. His secret girl-crush is Jonah, a pretty blonde who is not really what she appears to be. And then, right when things could not get any better or worse, Trevor McAllinway arrives at his school and makes his world flip, spin and his life change forever. Miles Richard later in his life becomes the Manor Lord for the Piskomil, at the Jericho Republic. 

 So yeah, that's my piece of creativity for today. Love ya'lls! My Phishes!
