a shooting star

Tell you this again, When you see A shooting star, Someone loves you, Someone tells you “Eat chocolates” Offer jewelry, Think of me, then, Pineapple flavors, Mango flavors, On a distant island There is happiness, Tell you this again When you see A shooting star, There’s someone who loves you. Dites-vous ceci, Quand vous voyez Une étoile filante, Quelqu’un vous aime, Quelqu’un vous dit Mangez des chocolats Offrez des bijoux, Pensez à moi, alors, Parfum d’ananas, Parfum de mangue, Sur une ile lointaine Il y a du bonheur, Redites-vous ceci Quand vous voyez Une étoile filante, Quelqu’un vous aime.

I don't read French quite well enough to go alone on the second one, but I loved the English version Yann. C'est magnifique mon ami.

Bengali proverb says, if you wish any thing when you chanced to see a shooting star, your wish will be fulfilled. Nice piece. I enjoyed.

Yann, I agree with you. The stars talk to us and the most of times we don't even see them. What a waste of time for them to make such a big effort, when we don't even appreciate the light and the strenght that give to us. Well done my friend. I really loved this. Stunning!

I dont see any shooting starts... does that mean no one loves me? lol.. Great poem and you must be a great wordsmith to write in two different languages..

thanks a lot SO, there are the limits of the "theorem" of the shooting star, may be someone loves you, i hope so

The best time to see many shooting stars is the Geminids meteor shower. Blessings.
