Added: Aug 21, 2006 From:doogit Duration: 3:15 Such a beautiful song by Jacques Brel (recorded in 1959) Here is an English translation. Ne Me Quitte Pas (=If you go away) If you go away on this summer's day, Then you might as well take the sun away All the birds that flew in the summer sky When our love was new and our hearts were high When the day was young and the nights were long And the moon stood still for the night bird's song If you go away, if you go away, if you go away. But if you stay, I'll make you a day Like no day has been, or will be again We'll sail on the sun, we'll ride on the rain And talk to the trees and worship the wind But if you go, I'll understand Leave me just enough love to fill up my hand If you go away, if you go away, if you go away. If you go, as I know you will You must tell the world to stop turning Till you return again, if you ever do, For what good is love without loving you? Can I tell you now, as you turn to go I'll be dying slowly till the next hello If you go away, if you go away, if you go away. But if you stay, I'll make you a night Like no night has been, or will be again I'll sail on your smile, I'll ride on your touch I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much But if you go, I won't cry Though the good is gone from the word goodbye If you go away, if you go away, if you go away. If you go away, as I know you must There is nothing left in this world to trust Just an empty room, full of empty space Like the empty look I see on your face I'd have been the shadow of your shadow If you might have kept me by your side If you go away, if you go away, if you go away. Update february 19, 2007: Please check previous comments for a better and correct translation. Enjoy Channel: Music |

Dec 18, 2008 - I wish I were French. Really. I'm just learning the colours in French, so the translation is quite essential for me... Oh. Never mind. Brel doesn't look so ugly when he's singing that, is he? And where is it taken from? I'd really like to know who is that bored guy. That's quite grotesque: Jacques suffering, and he waiting for the end.

Dec 22, 2008 - @PolishAgnieszkaAWBrel: 'Not looking so ugly'??? Brel is looking gorgeous for anyone with a real heart. I am a 100% unimprovable heterosexual guy, but I love and cherish this Brel performance every inch. Wish he could be my brother, and I wish I could comfort him - like I could comfort me. This has nothing to do with Brel 'looking ugly'. He is the center of the emotional universe. Why looking for someone 'less ugly'?

Dec 30, 2008 - "Ne Me Quitte Pas" doesn't mean "If you go away", but "Dont leave me"

Dec 30, 2008 - As a hetero female, he is appealing on many levels, believe me. The sincerity of emotion (rare in American men), the expressiveness (please, the American thing!). He has my heart. JM

Jan 7, 2009 - "I would give you rain pearls coming from countries where it never rains I would dig the ground, up until after I'm dead, to cover your body with gold and light" One of my favorite songs ever. Perfect.

Jan 9, 2009 - The lyrics are not a translation but an English version of the song =) Everyone should refer to the comments to understand the song, they are more "faithful" to the original lyrics which are just breath-taking. "I will dig the earth, even after my death, to cover your body with gold and light" "I will tell you the story of that King who died of not seeing you" "Let me be the shadow of your shadow, the shadow of your hand, the shadow of your dog but...don't leave me" Tu nous manques Jacques!
