a dynamic parphrase translation of Apollinaire I'll Pleut
It rains voices
of women
fallen from memory:
in you also o raindrops,
rains
the crucial events
of my life.
And these clouds
thunder aloud
a world
with a host of voices.
Hear,it rains
of regret and contempt
weeping
their well-worn tunes,
hear,those falling shackles
that imprison
you head to toe.
You may listen to my YouTube clip of this translation under my pen name ichthyschiro featuring me voice in English and my youngest granddaughter in French @ https://m.youtube.com/watch?t=8s&v=73aTfJS20hk
