French → English translation for the song "Emmanuelle" by Pierre Bachelet lyrics.

French

Emmanuelle

Mélodie d'amour chantait le cœur d'Emmanuelle
Qui bat cœur à corps perdu
Mélodie d'amour chantait le corps d'Emmanuelle
Qui vit corps à cœur déçu

Tu es encore
Presque une enfant
Tu n'as connu
Qu'un seul amant
Mais à vingt ans
Pour rester sage
L'amour étant
Trop long voyage

Mélodie d'amour chantait le cœur d'Emmanuelle
Qui bat cœur à corps perdu
Mélodie d'amour chantait le corps d'Emmanuelle
Qui vit corps à cœur déçu

L'amour à cœur
Tu l'as rêvé
L'amour à corps
Tu l'as trouvé
Tu es en somme
Devant les hommes
Comme un soupir
Sur leur désire

Tu es si belle
Emmanuelle
Cherche le cœur
Trouve les pleurs
Cherche toujours
Cherche plus loin
Viendra l'amour
Sur ton chemin

Mélodie d'amour chantait le cœur d'Emmanuelle
Qui bat cœur à corps perdu
Mélodie d'amour chantait le corps d'Emmanuelle
Qui vit corps à cœur déçu

English

Emmanuelle

Melody of love sang from her heart, Emmanuelle
Who’s heart beat in a body apart
Melody of love sang from her heart, Emmanuelle
Who’s body lived with broken heart

You are still now
barely more than a child
You have not known
One single love
But at twenty years
To remain wise
Love is proving
Too long a journey

Melody of love sang from her heart, Emmanuelle
Who’s heart beat in a body apart
Melody of love sang from her heart, Emmanuelle
Who’s body lived with broken heart

Love of the heart
Of this you have dreamed
Love of the body
This you have found
You are all in all
In the eyes of men
Just as a sigh
Upon their desire

You’re so beautiful
Emmanuelle
Seeking the heart
but finding the tears
Searching always
And searching still more
Love it will come
Somewhere on your way

Melody of love sang from her heart, Emmanuelle
Who’s heart beat in a body apart
Melody of love sang from her heart, Emmanuelle
Who’s body lived with broken heart


Author's comment: I have tried to adjust translation to fit the meter of the song, and rhyming only where this has not altered the meaning of the words.
