Hard translation of simple feelings.
I recall the time when I was 15. "The Hands Up" (Руки Вверх) music group was all the rage those days in Russia. Well, I didn't like them much but the lycics of one of their songs "А он тебя целует" ("And he kisses you") really touched me. So I made an attempt of its translation. :)
The original lyrics you can find here (just in case you know Russian): http://lyrics.mp3s.ru/perl/lyric.pl?hy1kugCWPhPO6&81256
I wonder if my translation sounds natural in English. And if not where am I wrong :)
Here it is:
And He Kisses You
In the warm evening I'm wandering alone
You can't get her back- the rain whispers to me gently
I know I'll meet you with the other man
How I wish it weren't you, but it is you who's walking by his side
I did love you so much, so much!
Thought you'd be waiting for me.. What have you done!
I did love you so much, so much!
And now I've lost you.
And he kisses you
Tells you that he loves you
And on nights he holds you tight
Strains you to his heart
But I'm racked with pain
Still in love
The pictures in the album
Are to remind me of you
In the warm evening it is thundering
Again I see the two of you, you're smiling.
I'm turning away.
What are you doing to me? Why are you mocking at me?
I did love you so much, so much!
Thought you'd be waiting for me.. What have you done!
I did love you so much, so much!
And now I've lost you.
