    Camille - Le Festin
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRwwMvOHsJE


    The Feast (translation of Le Festin)

    The dreams of lovers are like good wine
    They give joy or even sorrow
    Weakened by hunger, I am unhappy
    Stealing on my way everything I can
    Because nothing in life is free.

    Hope is a dish too soon finished
    I am accustomed to skipping meals
    A thief alone and hungry is sad enough to die (This isn't a direct translation at all, but it's the best way I could think of to explain the pun)
    As for us, I am bitter, I want to succeed
    Because nothing in life is free.

    Never will they tell me that I cannot shoot for the stars;
    Let me fill you with wonder, let me take flight
    We will finally fea . . . st.

    The party will finally start
    And bring out the bottles, the troubles are over
    I'm setting the table; tomorrow is a new life
    I am happy at the idea of this new destiny
    A life spent in hiding, and now I'm finally free
    The feast is on my path
    A life spent in hiding, and now I'm finally free
    The feast is on my path. . . .
    Its nice to be important, but its more important to be nice
    Y Ddraig Goch ddyry gychwyn
