MYLENE FARMER Je Te Dis Tout with English Words 4.30

  - 4:30

Mylene Farmer's most beloved song, "Je Te Dis Tout" translated in English and subtitled within a Television performance of the song. This bittersweet melody is about losing a loved-one, but more specifically, these words refer as well to the Aids crisis of the late 20th century. Mylene's many references to blood maintain the general image in the mind's eye of this scourge, but very specific is her line i translated as "And on your sweater, i will embroider an M". First off, M can be understood two ways; as "aime" or as "m", but her reference to sweaters, points directly to a custom that developed in the 1980s, of stitching together the clothes of recently departed victims of Aids, and exhibiting them in public places as an homage. Here are my English equivalencies to this beautiful song. JE TE DIS TOUT Silent, marvelous In this unstable night i listen to the wind Heiress, passenger of my cursed days, that i am My love, i'll tell you all You populate my life infinitely Abused of fate, knock at my door Place your hands on my forehead, on my breasts If by happenstance i left the earth You are my blood, my double-love, my DNA And on your sweater, i will embroider an M So that our blood mixes in the wind, my DNA Stripped, encirled in this bloody game I tell the wind all, as calm as a cloud I'm the one who forgives in time, those absent Hope you enjoyed it and i humbly thank you. Cheers+T'I's
