Emma (Je m'appelle Emma)(original) |
C´était une provinciale |
Et elle s´appelait Emma |
Dans la Normandie matinale |
Quand les vaches ruminent déjà |
Quand la brume s´étire sur les champs |
Elle cachait ses yeux sous les draps |
Et disait à celui qui n´était jamais là |
Emma, je m´appelle Emma |
Et je ne sais pas |
Si jamais cœur aimât |
Aussi fort que moi |
Je m´appelle Emma |
Alors aime-moi |
Moi Emma |
Les jours se déroulaient, banal |
Et la radio n´existait pas |
Imagine les gens qui regardent |
En silence derrière les rideaux |
Son mari qui l´oublie un peu |
Et un jour un homme a surgi |
Et enfin cet amour |
Dont elle rêve quand elle dit: |
C´était juste un beau parleur |
Représentant de commerce |
Il lui offre un foulard à fleurs |
Elle croit qu´il lui donne son cœur |
Mais lui n´en veut qu´à son corps |
Alors elle pense à la mort |
Y a ceux qui l´entendent |
Mais trop tard, elle dit: |
(translation) |
She was a provincial |
And her name was Emma |
In morning Normandy |
When the cows are already ruminating |
When the mist stretches over the fields |
She hid her eyes under the sheets |
And said to the one who was never there |
Emma, my name is Emma |
And I don't know |
If ever heart loved |
As strong as me |
My name is Emma |
So love me |
Me Emma |
The days rolled by, mundane |
And the radio didn't exist |
Imagine the people watching |
In silence behind the curtains |
Her husband who forgets her a little |
And one day a man appeared |
And finally this love |
Of which she dreams when she says: |
He was just a smooth talker |
Salesman |
He gives her a flowered scarf |
She thinks he gives her his heart |
But he only wants his body |
So she thinks about death |
There are those who hear it |
But too late, she says: |
