Analysis of Language, poezie et l'amour

Reia Collins 1995 (Romania)



I speak multiple languages
Or so I say to myself
But still the poetry writes the same
In every of them

În română, totul e mai dulce
Mă descurc mai bine să exprim ce simt
Când mă gândesc la tine
Ești ca un foc ce nu îl pot stinge
Ești ca o cărare în munte unde mă pierd
Și totuși mă regăsesc mereu

En français je veux écrire un peu
Mais l'amour que j'ai pour toi
C'est le même chose que dans ma langue maternelle
Tu est la raison après tant d'années
Pour laquelle j'ai appris le français
J'espère juste que j'aurai l'occasion d'en parler
Avec toi

And as you see, English is the base
Although there are no words to express
What I feel for you
Or maybe you are just a ghost of my mind
An image from another life
A life I dreamt of having a long time ago
In every language that I can speak in
