Tomber Dans Le Vide

translation below Tomber dans le vide Je rêve de toi Je rêve de toi toute la nuit Je bois du vin Je bois l'amour Je suis triste dans la nuit Je regarde dehors à la pluie Je joue avec mon cheval-jouet Je rêve de voyager Je rêve de toi Je meurs dans la nuit Le froid, la glace Mots inachevés Translation Falling into the void I dream of you I dream of you all the night I drink the wine I drink the love I am sad in the night I gaze outside at the rain I play with my toy horse I dream to travel I dream of you I die in the night The cold, the ice Words unfinished

I can appreciate both versions of the poem and I encourage you to continue to publish on this site. Being an italian, I tried first to translate my poems and I found english an unexpectedly various and sounding language. So you can try with french to english translations

Merci Mario, yes to write in a different lanquage or translate is not easy, however, It is so much fun to learn the small nuances in ones own lanquage by learning another!

I like the repetition. It emphasizes the poignancy of the scene. Makes me regret not taking up French as Elective, though :(
