L'anamour Lyrics in English Serge Gainsbourg
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song L'anamour by Serge Gainsbourg from French to English.
Aucun Boeing sur mon transit
No Boeing on my layover
Aucun bateau sous mon transat
No boat under my deck chair
Je cherche en vain la porte exacte
I search in vain for the exact door
Je cherche en vain le mot exit
I search in vain for the word "exit"
Je chante pour les transistors
I sing for the transistors
Ce récit de l'étrange histoire
This tale of the strange story
De tes anamours transitoires
Of your transitory loves
De Belle au Bois Dormant qui dort
Of Sleeping Beauty who sleeps
Je t'aime et je crains
I love you and I fear
De m'égarer
Getting lost
Et je sème des grains
And I sow seeds
De pavot sur les pavés de l'anamour
Of poppy on the cobblestones of love
Tu sais ces photos de l'Asie
You know those photos of Asia
Que j'ai prises à deux cents Asa
That I took at two hundred ASA
Maintenant que tu n'es pas là
Now that you're not here
Leurs couleurs vives ont pâli
Their bright colors have faded
J'ai cru entendre les hélices
I thought I heard the propellers
D'un quadrimoteur mais hélas
Of a four-engine plane but alas
C'est un ventilateur qui passe
It's a passing fan
Au ciel du poste de police
In the sky of the police station
Je t'aime et je crains
I love you and I fear
De m'égarer
Getting lost
Et je sème des grains
And I sow seeds
De pavot sur les pavés de l'anamour
Of poppy on the cobblestones of love
Je t'aime et je crains
I love you and I fear
De m'égarer
Getting lost
Et je sème des grains
And I sow seeds
De pavot sur les pavés de l'anamour
Of poppy on the cobblestones of love
Je t'aime et je crains
I love you and I fear
De m'égarer
Getting lost
