Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Marilou Sous La Neige by Serge Gainsbourg from French to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Marilou repose sous la neige
Marilou rests under the snow
Et je me dis et je me redis
And I tell myself and I tell myself again
De tous ces dessins d'enfant que n'ai-je
Of all these child's drawings what do I have
Pu préserver la fraîcheur de l'inédit
Was able to preserve the freshness of the unpublished
De ma Lou en bandes dessinées, je
From my Lou in comics, I
Parcourais les bulles arrondies
Walked through the rounded bubbles
Lorsque je me vis exclu de ses jeux
When I saw myself excluded from his games
Erotiques, j'en fis une maladie
Erotic, I made it a disease
Marilou se sentait pris au piège
Marilou felt trapped

Moi naïf, j'pensais que me protégeaient
Naive me, I thought they were protecting me

ma Lou, il fallait que j'abrège
my Lou, I had to cut it short
Ton existence, c'est ainsi
Your existence is like this
Que Marilou s'endort sous la neige
That Marilou falls asleep under the snow
Carbonique de l'extincteur d'incendie
Carbonic fire extinguisher
