DESCRIPTION:
PLEASE READ : I do not own the lyrics or the song.

This is my personal translation of "La Petite Mort" by Coeur de Pirate. I'm French and I love this song, so I just tried to translate it for those who don't speak french, as literally as I could. (no rhymes ;)) Sorry if they are mistakes : I was just trying to help. Do not hesitate to ask me to translate another song, it would be my pleasure ! :D

Hope you'll enjoy it :)

A little more about the title : "La petite mort" is both untranslatable and inexpressible. It is a French expression that could mean three things. It could be the orgasm, the feeling of joy and bliss you have just after, because you're so moved that you're a bit dizzy, but it also could be a metaphor (very used in the XVIe century by baroque poets) to mean "sleep" because sleeping is pretty much like dying ; you're not moving, nor talking, your eyes are close. (except, of course, that you're still breathing) Finally, "la petite mort" could simply be translated as "Small death" maybe also as a metaphor for the loss of a loved one. Enough for the explanations, just enjoy it. :)
