Music that moves you to tears

I got turned on to French-Canadian pop music sometime ago by a facebook friend. She was born in the US, but her parents came here from Canada and she is bilingual. Anyway, I'm always amazed when I fund stuff out there that I didn't know was out there. I speak French, but not as well as her of course, but enough to really appreciate this new (to me) found music.

 

The words and music to this song literately brought a tear to my eye when she shared it on my timeline. I've copied and pasted the same translation she included so my non-French speaking friends could appreciate it more. She said it's close enough, but can't be completely translated word-for-word. I'm really liking this singer and some other Québécois artists that are now on my radar Enjoy!

 

"SOUS UNE PLUIE D'ÉTOILES" (Under a Rain of Stars) CINDY DANIEL

 

When the ocean faints

There where the sky concludes

I search on your lips

The way of my nights

When it no longer remains

More than some lost dreams.

 

All of the words that we share

These thoughts that bind us

Are like tears in the eyes

Of such precious moments

That we would like to keep

Deep inside of us, hidden.

 

Since it's you that I love

You who my life is lacking

If one day you as well

Feel like you love me

Since it's you that I love

You who my life is lacking

We could, together

Try to be happy.

 

I read in your look

A little of our story

But the end, you know

No one knows

Deep down in our hearts

Where the star is dying.

 

If we aren't careful

We could accidentally

On the beach of confessions

Erase in the sand

The dreams we made together

Under a rain of stars
