Help me - I need help with a french sentence!!!!


Recommended Posts

Hey goincrazy,

 

Translate? Sure thing... that one's easy and you're damn lucky if they said it to you.

 

It says "If love was but a water drop, the ocean is what I feel for you."

 

How romantic

 

P.S.

 

I should add that's not a DIRECT translation but that is what they mean to say.

If someone has a few minutes, could you please write this poem in French. I would so greatly appreciate it!!!

 

 

Nothing Compares To You

 

There are NO words

Strong enough to express

What I feel for you.

 

There are NO songs

As beautiful as the music

That fills my soul

When I hear your voice.

 

There are NO roses

As lovely as the true beauty

I see when you smile.

 

There are NO days

As bright as the days

I spend with you.

 

There is NOTHING

In this world that compares to you

You owe me

 

Rien Ne compare À Vous.

 

Il n'y a AUCUN mot (there's not a word)

Assez fort pour exprimer

ce qui me sens je pour vous

 

Il n'y a AUCUNE chanson (there's not a song)

Aussi beau que la musique

Ce suffisances mon âme

Quand j'entends votre voix.

 

Il n'y a AUCUNE rose (there's not a rose... I think you're seeing the pattern)

Aussi beau que la beauté vraie

Je vois quand vous souriez.

 

Il n'y a AUCUN jour

Aussi lumineux que les jours

Je dépense avec vous.

 

Il n'y a RIEN

En ce monde qui compare à vous.

 

It's the best I could do to keep it word for word.

 

It's a great poem. I hope she appreciates the effort.

Im sorry if this is too late or what not.

In any case it might give you additional insight into the language in the future.

 

I believe this is almost as word for word, but less impersonal

and also convey's the feelings better.

 

------------------

Rien ne se compare a toi

 

Il n'y a pas de mots

Asser fort pour exprimer

Ce que je ressent pour toi

 

Il n'y a aucune chanson

Aussi belle que la music

Qui remplis mon âmes

Lorsque j'entend ta voix

 

Il n'y a pas une rose

Aussi jolie que la beauté

Que je vois lorsque tu souris

 

Ya aucune journée

Aussi brilliante que celles

passer avec toi

 

Il n'y a RIEN

Dans ce monde

Qui se compare a toi

-------------------------

 

The difference between VOUS and TOI, is you use VOUS

when talking to someone out of respect, but not loving respect,

more like business relation or respect for your elders, or again

respect for someone you arent close to or familiar with, like

your loved ones parents

 

TOI, without being vulgar or out of place, expresses much more

the feeling your trying to convey, and makes it seem your talking

directly to someone in particular because VOUS can also mean a group

of people.

 

hope this helps

I also need some help with a french sentence.

If you can help that would be great!

 

Quand je regarde dans tes yeux, c'est comme voir pour la

premiere fois la pleine lune qui reflete sur l'ocean comme une infinite de petites etoiles filantes.

 

I know what some parts mean but i can't get the whole sentence.

Thanks!
