Dracula: Entre L'Amour et Mort - all tracks & tracklist

Though I have never heard of this music, the work that BlueJacket and Holyguyver have done on this has me intrigued and I am pursuing a purchase of this. Take your time guys (or gals) because your end result reflects that patience well. Thank you both.

Yes, I can help with dialogue (Fr to Eng) - I was going to post some once I've finished with lyric - some bits are lengthy, but I can add some to existing posts to give context.

I was thinking about having a go at subtitling, but Holyguyver's doing that already. It's a shame the existing DVD doesn't have subs - however, in my humble opinion, that can be a bit of a problem sometimes. I was never too impressed by the English subtitling on the DVD (or the English version CD come to that) for the Quebecois musical 'Notre Dame de Paris'. (Bruno Pelletier played Gregoire) - that's despite the 'translation' being written by the translator for Celine Dion....(humm).

Will post more soon - glad you like them -

Do get the DVD if you can - for me it shows just how good non English Musicals can be. Europe is stuffed full of excellent shows that are hardly seen by English speaking world. For me, Andrew Lloyd-Webber has so dominated the genre, everyone in the English speaking world is compared to him and at times unfairly criticised for not being 'as good' or being 'derivative' (you can't win!) Personally, I think that while he has produced some very good shows, sometimes his name carries him. Just the other day, I heard a song from his forthcoming sequel to 'Phantom' (opening later this year) - and the only thing I can say is that it was toe-curllingly dreadful. A saccharin piece entitled 'Love Never Dies.' (That's the rant out of the way..) !

Check out the video for another Dracula soundtrack on YouTube ' Within my World' by Orton, Evans and Lynn sung by Michael McCarthy. The soundtrack is out on CD. I particularly like 'Never to Die'. (see my entry http://www.allthelyrics.com/forum/ly...a-musical.html)
It is hoped to get a London production going this year... I wish them well as they are clearly a talented bunch, all David's struggling against the lumbering giant that is Lord Lloyd-Webber.....

Bluejacket, as I said in my post you can go ahead & make subtitles too, nothing wrong with having subtitles for two differant English translations I would be delighted to see a subtitle track by you . If you want I can upload my subtitle file & you can then take it & tweak it to having your lyrics & then you can easily post a video with yours in it .

Hello Bluejacket , I would tell you that in the song "Army of Shadows is not well translated sentence is kisses And only me that is not well translated. I followed a French-speaking province of Quebec and the word "baise" mean in my language to make love without a feeling of love between two people but the two person sound sweet flag, so the word "****" would be more ideal for the song. Do not mix the word "baise" and "baisé ", the word "baisé " mean kisses in your language. The sentence would be true And **** only me.

Thanks for the correction - you live and learn! Given the edge to the lyric - the correction makes more sense.....

He is right. As said I have spent time in Montreal & indeed that word is translated into English as a word starting with an F.

Hello Bluejacket if you want to do another translation of the musical comedy Dracula here is a website you can find another hunt that its not on the cd: http://fr.lyrsense.com/dracula_entre_lamour_et_la_mort. I would like you to translate the following song and link::
Enfin plus rien (http://fr.lyrsense.com/dracula_entre...nfin_plus_rien)
Je suis (http://fr.lyrsense.com/dracula_entre...a_mort/je_suis)
Mystérieux personnage (http://fr.lyrsense.com/dracula_entre..._personnage_dr)

L'affrontement (http://fr.lyrsense.com/dracula_entre.../laffrontement
Repose (http://fr.lyrsense.com/dracula_entre...la_mort/repose)

The song is at fault in French. Here's how they wrote well in French:

Fault really

Can someone please please post the lyrics of Un Bateau qui Sombre and also translate it? please please!

1: 14: La lettre
----------------------------------------------------------
Grand Lui:
Ceux qui ne connaissent pas l’amour, ne connaissent rien de la souffrance.
Ah, Renfield! Il est obsédé par Lucy; vulnérable et désespéré, Dracula l’a choisi. Bon voyage!

------------------------------------------------------------------
1:14 - The Letter
------------------------------------------------------------------
Narrator:
Those who do not know love, do not know suffering.
Ah Renfield! He is obsessed with Lucy; vulnerable and desperate, Dracula chooses him. Bon Voyage!

----------------------------------------------------------------
1:15 Un Bateau qui Sombre
----------------------------------------------------------------
Renfield:
C’est un bateau qui sombre
Et sombre et sombrera
Dans l’océan des ombres
Où m’attendent déjà
Des milliers des mendiants
Des fous et des putains
Couteau entre les dents
Et seringue à la main
C’est le mauvais côté
Du rêve et du réel
Ou soleil barbelé
Sur qui le Diable veille

La vie que je n’ai jamais demandée
Qui fait de moi un condamné
Marchant vers l’échafaud
La tête promise à la faux

C’est un chemin d’effroi
Où règnent tous les vices
Qui nous mène tout droit
Au jardin des supplices
C’est l’horreur absolu
Qui conduit au néant
Où les anges sont nus
Et recouverts de sang

La vie que je n’ai jamais demandée
Qui fait de moi un condamné
Marchant vers l’échafaud
La tête promise à la faux

C’est un bateau qui sombre
Et sombre et sombrera
Dans l’océan des ombres
Où Dieu me tend le bras

1: 15. A Sinking Ship - Renfield
--------------------------------------

Note:In this production, Renfield is a drug addict. This song conveys his despair and his fears for the predicament in which he finds himself. The sinking ship refers not only to the fateful expedition he is making with Johnathan, but his own voyage through life. He senses an evil he can't quite explain, and yet still has hope for redemption. Later, sensing his weakness, Dracula uses it against him, and Renfield's fears of a dark oblivion which haunt his dreams at the end of the song become reality.


It's a sinking ship - [ie This is a sinking ship - a doomed voyage]
Into darkness it will sink.
Into an ocean of shadows
Where awaiting me are
Thousands of the beggars,
Madmen and whor*s, with
knives between their teeth
And a syringes in their hands.
This is the flip side
Of the dream - the true reality
Beneath the barbed sun
Over whom the Devil watches.

This life I have never asked for
Has turned me into a condemned man
Marching towards the scaffold -
my head promised to the blade

This is the way of dread
Where all the vices reign,
And leads us straight
Into the garden of suffering.
It is absolute horror
Which drives each to oblivion,
Where the angels are bare
And covered with blood

This life I have never asked for
Has turned me into a condemned man
Marching towards the scaffold
My head promised to the blade.

It's a sinking ship -
And into darkness it will sink,
Into the ocean of shadows
Where God stretches out his arms to me.

thank you so so much! you're the best best best! :]

ok i know i ask too much but can you also translate this please? and post the lyrics ^__^

Siibi, Here is a translation by me:

== Aussi loin que je sois ==

Jonathan:
Toi qui es revenue, toi qui repartiras
Dis-moi reviendras-tu pour la dernière fois
Où vas-tu repartir, où je repartirai
Pour mieux nous revenir pour toujours, à jamais

Mina:
Reviens, je suis partie au loin mais attends-moi
Au profond de ton lit, au chaleur de tes bras
Tu es mon absolu, celui en qui je crois
Dis-moi m’aimeras-tu
Aussi loin que je sois?

Jonathan, Mina:
Oublions les distances, elles n’ont plus d’importance
L’amour a rendez-vous dans la vallée des fous
Oublions les souffrances
Qu’importe qu’elles soient immences
L’amour se fait confiance

Mina:
Dis-moi ce que tu vis quand je ne suis plus là

Jonathan:
Au chaleur de ton lit, au profond de tes bras

Mina:
Tu es mon absolu, celui en qui je crois
Dis-moi m’aimeras-tu aussi loin

Jonathan, Mina:
Que je sois

Oublions les distances, elles n’ont plus d’importance
L’amour a rendez-vous dans la vallée des fous
Oublions les souffrances
Qu’importe qu’elles soient immences
L’amour se fait confiance.


== No Matter How Far ==

Jonathan:
You who has returned, you who I must leave
Tell me are you coming back for the last time
Where are you going to be, when I return
To help us return to forever

Mina:
Come back, I left, but wait for me
At the bottom of your bed, in warmth of your arms
You are my absolute, in whom I believe
Tell me you love me
No matter how far

Jonathan, Mina:
Forget the distance, it has no importance
L’amour has a rendezvous in the valley of Fools
Forget the sufferance
No matter how immense
L’amour is my confidence

Mina:
Tell me what you saw well you were gone

Jonathan:
In the warmth of your bed, in the depths of your arms

Mina:
You are my absolute, in whom I believe
Tell me you love me no matter -

Mina / Jonathan:
How far / I do

Jonathan, Mina:
Forget the distance, it has no importance
L’amour has a rendezvous in the valley of Fools
Forget the sufferance
No matter how immense
L’amour is my confidence

And of course you all knew this was coming! Here is my video of Aussi Loin Que Je Suis with English subs:

English! Dracula - Entre L'Amour Et La Mort - No Matter How Far - Aussi Loin Que Je Suis
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziRHPnm0Czw

or for those wanting to see both songs together:

English! Dracula - Entre L'Amour Et La Mort - What I See and No Matter How Far - Ce Que Je Vois et Aussi Loin Que Je Suis
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvwBfCd8Ww4

This song was a lot harder to translate then the other video I made, so it might not be as accurate, but I hope I illustrated the correct meanings behind the lines. This song emotionally means a lot to me. As you guys know in February 2009 things didn't go well with me & my Quebecois friend in Montreal, & I have been unable to speak to her ever since, & am living all the way in Arizona USA so am very far away from her, so this song has a lot of meaning for me, I feel the lyrics very deeply in my heart, & I hope I was able to do it justice.

Can someone please please post the lyrics of Enfin plus rien and also translate it? please please!

Can someone please please post the lyrics of L'affrontement and also translate it? please please!
http://soundtrack.lyrsense.com/dracu.../laffrontement

Nao, Since I can only somewhat read French my method is I put the French into google translate & yahoo babelfish translate, compare the two translations to the French & put in whichever translation seems to fit closer, I then re-look at the French & see if there is anything in the French that I see that the translators didn't pick up, I then listen to the music & tweak the sentences to fit the syllible count of the singers & try & get them to rhyme similarly & sound similar coming out of the mouths. Once I am done making all of those refinements I then post it here.

I have the entire show translated into English by google translate, I simply haven't had time to refine that many of the songs yet. If you would like a sloppy machine translation I can give you the entire show in English right now.

Since I don't exactly have the time right now, here is a quick way for you to get a basic translation for those songs

2:5 Dialogue Dracula et Renfield
-----------------------------------------------------------
Renfield: Où est Lucy? Où est ma Lucy?
Dracula: Demande à Van Helsing!
Renfield: Mais le pacte?! Nous avions un pacte!
Dracula: Je sais
Renfield: Nous avions un pacte!
Dracula: Je sais, Renfield!
Renfield: Mon amour à moi! Ma Lucy!!!
Dracula: Ta Lucy, tu la retrouveras!

-----------------------------------------------------------
2:5 Dialogue Dracula and Renfield
-----------------------------------------------------------

Renfield: Where is Lucy? Where is my Lucy?
Dracula: Ask Van Helsing!
Renfield: But the deal? We had a deal!
Dracula: I know
Renfield: We had a deal!
Dracula: I know Renfield!
Renfield: My love! My Lucy!
Dracula: Your Lucy, you will find her!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2/6: Enfin Rien Plus
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: In this song, Renfield despairs that he has been instrumental in the destruction of Lucy, his secret love. But what begins as a song of despair becomes a song of redemption for both characters; Renfield repents his faults and calls on Lucy and Mina to forgive him and submits to death in the hope of release. Ironically, in Renfield Dracula sees himself reflected; for both, love is torture and existence a trial. Even as Renfield dies at his hand, Dracula yearns for his own release, his final whispered words a lament for them both. This is further explored in the next song 'Je Suis'.
I have added or changed the odd word for the sake of clarity, particularly verse 5 - in brackets is the literal trans or implied meaning.


Renfield:
Comment suis-je tombé aussi bas
Pour devenir votre chose?
Jetant aux pieds de votre lit
Des vierges au visage de rose?
Et pourquoi donc vous ai-je suivi
Si loin de mes propres ténèbres
Et pourquoi donc suis-je celui
Qui n’a que la force des faibles?

Dracula:
Mon ami, ne t’inquiète plus
Ni pour Lucy, ni pour Mina
Et que t’importe que je tue
Qu’importe le sang que je bois
Laisse-moi t’offrir ce butin
Au ventre noir comme le soleil
Il est temps de prier les saints
Des paradis artificiels

Renfield:
Assez je n’en peux plus déjà
Je veux redevenir poussière
Fragile et nu dans mes hivers
Que les ciels éloignent de moi

Dracula:
Que les ciels se moquent bien de toi
Tu es du royaume des enfers
Tu es le frère de Dracula
Tu appartiens à Lucifer

Renfield:
Je n’appartiens plus à personne
Je suis la tête contre les mures
Pourvu que le mal me pardonne
Et m’abandonne dans mes blessures

Dracula:
Trop tard, trop tard, il est trop tard
Tu est-ce que tu as choisi
Un glacier fou aux ongles noirs
Je te fais cadeau de ta vie

Renfield:
Enfin j’ai le droit de mourir
Sans savoir pourquoi j’ai vécu
Pourquoi dès mon premier soupir
La vie m’a porté disparu

Enfin j’ai le droit de partir
De retrouver ma soeur la nuit
Enfin je finis de souffrir
Et de pourrir au fond de puits

Enfin, enfin l’existence à une fin
Enfin il n’y aura plus de matin
À regardé le ciel brûle
Comme un enfant abandonné

Enfin, enfin l’existence à une fin
Enfin il n’y aura ........

Dracula:
Plus rien Va, pars la rejoindre
Любов - біль Смерть - свобода

Narrator:
L'amour, la souffrance La mort – la délivrance


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2: 6: At Last, Oblivion or At Last, an end
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Renfield:
How can it be that I have fallen so far,
to become your slave [lit: your thing]
Sacrificing to your desires [lit: throwing at the foot of your bed]
Virgins with the faces of innocents? [use of rose is sentimental - sweet, innocent]
And why therefore, did I follow you
Far from my own dark road
How can it be that I am now
So weak with no will of my own?

Dracula:
My friend, do not worry anymore
Neither for Lucy nor for Mina.
What does it matter to you whom I kill
What does it matter whose blood I drink
Let me offer you this final reward; (Dracula is offering him drugs)
In the black belly of this dark sun
It is time to call upon the saints
in their false paradise.

Renfield:
Enough, my strength is almost gone,
I want to become dust once more
[So] fragile and naked in my winter [am I]
That [the grace] of heaven withdraws from me.

Dracula:
Heaven mocks at you
You come from the Kingdom of Hell
You are the brother of Dracula
You belong to Lucifer

Renfield:
I belong to no-one anymore,
I will dash my head against a wall,
As penance for the damage I have done
[Forgive me], and leave me to my wounds

Dracula:
Too late, too late, it is much too late
You are what you chose;
A mad frozen fool, with black nails [implies dead, also dead to the world]
I offer you this gift of life.

Renfield:
At last I have the right to die,
Without knowing why I lived.
Why from my first sigh
Within me lived a dead man

Finally, I have the right to depart,
To join my sister, Night
At last to end the suffering,
To rot at the bottom of pit

At last at last, this existence has an end [ie oblivion]
At last there will be no more mornings,
To gaze upon a pitiless sky. [for 'sky' also read 'heaven']
Like an abandoned child.

At last, at last this existence has an end
At last there will be ......

Dracula:
It's over. Go reunite with her
Любов – біль Смерть – свобода
Love is suffering, death is freedom.

Narrator:
Love, Suffering, Death - Deliverance.........

Thank bluejacket for the song you will soon translate L'affrontement

L'affrontement

Dracula:
Elhemina, enfin!

Van Helsing:
DRACUL!!!!

Dracula:

Je savais bien que tu viendrais
Bouffon d’orgueil ivre de haine
Je t’attendais
Il est grand temps que tu apprennes
La vérité des vérités
Autour de toi tout est mensonge
L’éternité n’est qu’un fruit pourri
Qui te ronge
Les hommes t’ont menti
Les femmes t’ont trahi

Van Helsing:

Vade retro Vlad Satanas
Avale ta langue de vipère
Rends-lui sa place
Dans la gueule noir de Lucifer

Vampiresses:
Oh! De Profundis! Oh! De Profundis!

Dracula:
Mais qui es-tu donc pour me parler ainsi?

Van Helsing:

Je suis les quatre cavaliers annoncés
Dans l’Apocalypse pour te tuer
Je suis venu rendre justice
Au nom des ceux qui ont prié comme
Des agneaux sacrifiés
Âme damnée je suis ton jugement dernier
Le cri parmi les cris de ceux qui n’ont rien dit

Dracula:

Mais à qui donc crois-tu parler?
Je suis le roi qui tue les rois
Et leurs guerriers
Même l’église a peur de moi
Je suis le vengeur invité
A purifier cette planète
La grande armée est devenue
Cent mille tempêtes
Annonçant votre fin
Et ton Dieu n’y peut rien

Van Helsing:

Credo in Deum
Patrem omnipotentem,
Creatorem caeli et terrae.
Et in Iesum Christum,
Filium eius unicum,
Dominum nostrum,
Qui conceptus est de Spiritu Sancto

Dracula:

Tu me fais rire avec ton Dieu
Qui ne vous a jamais aimé
Ouvre les yeux, Van Helsing,
Il vous a tous abandonné
Il m’a laissé tuer vos filles
Il m’a laissé violer ta fille

Et son fils culé sur la croix
Il n’a rien dit
Et tu oses dire que c’est
En ce Dieu que tu crois

Van Helsing:

Avale ta langue de vipère
Rends-lui sa place
Dans la gueule noir de Lucifer
Vade retro Vlad Satanas

Il est temps pour toi de payer
Il est temps pour toi de te taire
Toi qui a semé sur la terre tant de pêchés
Aprends donc à prier pour être pardonné

Van Helsing:
Pour être pardonné
Pour être pardonné

Dracula:
Tu dois mourir
Tu vas mourir

Dracula:

Je porte en moi l’esprit de Valachia
Qui de par sa furie vengeresse
Va balayer cette terre comme une flamme vivante!

Qui donc à le pouvoir du sang dans ses veines?
Le pouvoir du sang!
