parfum d’été
sur le pont d’Avignon
bras enlaçant

parfum d’été
séduire
tous les sens

sur le pont d’Avignon
on y danse
tous en rond

bras enlaçant
désir muet sur ses lèvres
regard sur le Rhône

summer’s fragrance
on the bridge of Avignon
arms entangled

perfume Summer
seducing
every sense

on the bridge of Avignon
dancing
round and round

arms entangled
silent desire on lips
gazing on the Rhone

    Implies the desire to confess feelings of love while gazing the distance. Great lines and translation Cheryl!

      I translate it all the same as many don`t think of Google translate and it is never perfect…but pretty good…I wanted to do the troiku justice in English too 🙂

    A beautiful Troiku Cheryl Lynn … that small song mentioned by Rall was the first thing which came in mind as I started reading this Troiku. Chapeau!

      The song is what inspired the poem:) but I never heard the fun version she had shared 😉
