Don't leave me!
Ne me quitte pas!
(1958)
Don't leave me!
Let's forget -
for all can be forgotten
which is gone by already!
Forget the time
of misunderstandings and
the time
lost
finding out how
to forget those hours
which sometimes killed
by blows of "why?"
the heart
of happiness.
Don't leave me!
Jacques Brel (1930-1979), a Belgian, was one of the great modern troubadours in the French language. A decade before Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen or Jackson Browne, he was a poet, singer and composer of extraordinary passion and shattering emotional power. Although his songs are almost impossible to dissociate from his performance, I have translated a few of them for my non-French speaking friends. Jacques Brel left the stage at 39 to wage a battle with lung cancer, mostly leading an unabashedly pleasurable life in French Polynesia. He died in 1979, at age 49. His popularity in French-speaking countries remains immense and shows no signs of dimming. All the songs which follow can be found on 2 CD's with the title: "Quand on n'a que l'amour," available through http://www.amazon.com His music is simply immortal!
