Thread Name: French songs in English translation
Subject: RE: French songs in English translation
"J'entends siffler le train"... we were kids in the early 60's and would sing "Et j'entends pisser le chien / sur la porte du jardin / que c'est triste un chien qui pisse dans le soir" (it wasn't supposed to have literary qualities...)
There's a thread here about French songs translated/adapted into other languages but there're only the titles.
