My translation of Dites-Moi Pourquoi Je L'aime

Mon traduction de Dites-Moi Pourquoi Je L'aime

This is not an official translation, it is just my idea of the lyrics. It is probably more an adaption than a translation - it is pretty close to the meaning in French, but NOT exact.

Dites-Moi Pourquoi Je L'aime (Tell Me Why I Love Him)

Tell me why I love him

Tell me why

It's like a present

Like the sky sent me from high, high, high (i.e. God)

When this love captured us

It went into our blood

Tell me why I love him

Tell me why it is too much

 

Why must it be that I love him

And that his life,

His life has come into my veins

And in his hands I supply myself, yes, yes

This time I'm gonna leave..

But when he takes my life

I don't know how..

But it happens every time

My body just falls, lost in his arms

 

Tell me why I love him,

Tell me why

It's like a boat

That is slowly sinking

He won't try to protect me

And, well, I cry harder

Again I ask why I love him

And why I will continue to love him again

 

The sky gave me the present

When in his arms, my body

Lost all of it's life

But I pray that he will embrace me again and again

 

Tell me why I love him

Please, tell me why

It's like a boat

Slowly sinking

He never helps me

And I cry harder

Again I ask why I love him...

And why I will love him again

Tell me why I love him...

I know that I love him still
