Maine Montparnasse – Lyrics Meaning in English – Marie Laforet

25/02/2024281 Views 0 Comments

The lyrics of the song express a sense of nostalgia and resignation as the singer reflects on a past love. The mention of places like Maine-Montparnasse in Rio de Janeiro and references to a last cruzeiro and the station filled with carrier pigeons suggest a journey or departure.

Singer – Marie Laforet

Maine-Montparnasse Rio de Janeiro
Je joue à pile ou face mon dernier cruzeiro
La gare est pleine de pigeons voyageurs
L’horloge traîne le fardeau de mes heures

Maine-Montparnasse Rio de Janeiro
I’m flipping my last cruzeiro
The station is full of carrier pigeons
The clock drags the burden of my hours

Je t’aimais comme une bossa nova
Entre deux verres de batida
Mais le carnaval est terminé
J’ai remis ma guitare au Mont de Piété

I loved you like a bossa nova
Between two glasses of batida
But the carnival is over
I returned my guitar to the Pawnbroker

Maine-Montparnasse Rio de Janeiro
Je prends ma place dans le dernier métro
La rue de Rennes est une terre fertile
L’Ille et Vilaine une banlieue du Brésil

Maine-Montparnasse Rio de Janeiro
I take my place in the last metro
Rue de Rennes is a fertile land
Ille et Vilaine a suburb of Brazil

Je t’aimais comme une bossa nova
Entre deux verres de batida
Mais le carnaval est terminé
J’ai remis ma guitare au Mont de Piété

I loved you like a bossa nova
Between two glasses of batida
But the carnival is over
I returned my guitar to the Pawnbroker

Maine-Montparnasse Rio de Janeiro
Je n’ai pas eu l’audace d’un grand guerillero
De la tour je domine les plus grands magasins
Je vois dans les vitrines qu’on solde mon chagrin

Maine-Montparnasse Rio de Janeiro
I did not have the audacity of a great guerrilla
From the tower I dominate the biggest stores
I see in the windows that my sorrow is being sold

Je t’aimais comme une bossa nova
Entre deux verres de batida
Mais le carnaval est terminé
J’ai remis ma guitare au Mont de Piété

I loved you like a bossa nova
Between two glasses of batida
But the carnival is over
I returned my guitar to the Pawnbroker

Oh remis mon amour au Mont de Piété…

Oh put my love back to the Pawnbroker…
