@M. Naples les melodies + le livret sont français. Cameron a refait certains arrangements mais toutes les melodies appartiennent a Boublil et Chönberg qui sont des musiciens Français.
@M. S. There are two French versions: the original French version upon which the English version was based, and a newer French version which is based upon the English version. The original French lyrics, translated, start "I had dreamed of another life / but life has shot down my dreams / like one stifles the last cries / of an animal which one slaughters. / I had dreamed of a heart so big / that mine could within it find a place, / but my first 'prince charming' / was the assassin of my childhood."
1991 Lyrics: Doux Seigneur, Que vous ai-je fait, Pour que plus je tombe, Et plus vous me laissiez tomber? J'avais rêvé d'un coeur si grand, Que le mien y trouve place Pour un bonheur à partager. Doux Seigneur, Que vous ai-je fait? J'avais rêvé d'une autre vie Quand ma vie passait comme un rêve. J'étais prête À toutes les folies, À toutes les passions qui se lèvent. J'étais si jeune, où est le mal? Je voulais rire, aimer et vivre, Danser jusqu'à la fin du bal, Ivre du bonheur d'être libre. Mais les loups rôdent dans la nuit; Et l'un d'eux flairait ma trace. Moi, j'ai comblé l'appétit Du premier voleur qui passe. Il a accoutumé ma vie À la chaleur de sa présence. Et puis un jour il est parti En m'ayant volé mon enfance. Parfois je rêve de lui encore: Il me supplie et il regrette. Mais le rêve s'éteint à l'aurore, Comme les lampions d'un soir de fête. J'avais rêvé d'une autre vie. À peine commencée elle s'achève. J'avais rêvé d'une autre vie, Mais la vie a tué Mes rêves.
Translation: Dear Lord, what did I do to You? Why did I fall? And You let me fall further? I had a dream of a heart so big, Where mine would find its place, To share happiness. Dear Lord, what did I do to You? I dreamed a dream of another life, When my life passed by like a dream, I was prepared for all the antics, For all the passions that would arise. Then I was young, where was the harm? I dreamed to laugh, to love, to live. To dance until the end of the ball. Too intoxicated with happiness to be free. But the wolves came in the night, And one of them found my trail. I satisfied their appetite, And gave myself to the first thief that passed, He grew accustomed to my life. I grew accustomed to his presence, And then, one day, he disappeared, And stole my childhood away too. Sometimes I still dream of him, That he regrets and begs forgiveness, But this dream fades away at dawn, Just as the lamps do after a party. I had a dream of another life, That would begin as mine is ending, So different now from what it seemed. But life has killed the dream I dreamed.
this is the most accurate voice type and emotion for a fantine role... you can hear the hardships and happines in the character's life... merci beaucoup
Thanks ! French has been designed to be well-balanced, between Italian and German for its pronunciation as well as its accuracy. It seems the result is quite satisfactory, but in the end too hard too be learnt for an everyday use on an international large scale. That's why english is now the international language (yet French is still alive in diplomacy and cultural fields) as it is less complicated and more easy to be sufficently mastered. It has its "more" and "less" too...
@@augustin5611 il a raison, les Francs étaient des germaniques qui ont grandement influencés les gallo-romains. Notre façon de prononcer les sons r de façon guttural est plus germanique que latine ! c'est comme les Néerlandais, on a tendance à trouver qu'ils parlent anglais avec un accent germanique, ou allemand avec un accent anglais ! ;)
@@jpc7118 En général j'aime bien dire que l'anglais est une langue germanique fortement influencée par les langues romanes et que le français est une langue latine fortement influencée par les langues germaniques.
The translation was not that bad! You missed the implication of "plus" in the introduction, that she believed God would "never" let her fall. Otherwise, solid job, and glad to have it online to share. The French lyrics have way more references to the Christian faith that exists in the novel, and more depth overall, as is true pretty much throughout the French concept album's lyrics vs. the English. Good!
I'm French but it's the first time I hear this song in French (the musical was much more successful in the UK and US for some reason...), and wow, I didn't think it would be that good. The singer is great and the lyrics are surprisingly good. Thanks for the upload. You made a good translation btw.
So incredibly in love with this musical, specifically this song....I have never heard it done so well...and the French lyrics have so much more meaning. Thank you for posting this....I'm power listening and loving every minute.
thank you, this is beautiful, as a teacher i got the glee reference, gotta catch their attention, thanks again for sharing this beautiful version, as it was written in french by the composer and reworked for the english version
I don't know the full story of this song, but it started as a French song (closer to the Hugo original??) in1980 - it was then reworked as an English song, with different ideas, forming the West End show we all know. This song which was then retranslated back into French which is sung here. And you have now translated in back into English again, as far as I understand!
As the Latin phrase goes, "traduttore, traditore". That being said, thanks for the literal translation. I should have done this in my college French class. Alas, UA-cam wasn't quite so extensive back then.
The lyrics are more powerful in French because that's how it was originally. The translation is really good but there are differences. My mothers first language is french and she heard the English and then experienced the french. The difference us that the french one is a lot harder and the lyrics mire devastatingly sad which is why I'm so glad that they put the word for word lyrics for the french as it makes the characters plee more desperate . The English is still a second to best translation. 👌
Beautiful song. I don't understand French, but I really like this translation. It really captures Fantine better. It's quite a shame we don't have a better English version.
I have the French concept album, I to like it better in its original voice. Now that there’s been the American movie of it, does France plan at all to do it in French? That’d be sweet. Makes me meditate on when my ancestors spoke French. Last family members to do so, my gg grandparents. Metis and Québécois fur trader. I did take it in school. Along with Spanish. People often ask me if I just came over! Due to our French Canadian spelling. I’m like nope!
It's a dream of mine to see Le Miserables performed in French despite the fact that I don't know the language. I've never understood how all those English people wound up in France.
Thank you for the comments. I would love to do the same type of video for all the songs...just need more time. I saw the 25th anniversary production a few months ago and was enchanted all over again. I highly recommend it.

Beautiful version! The translation is almost perfect, except : At 0:22 she actually says "so that the more i fall, the more you would let me fall / let me down" and at 2:12 "I satisfied the apetite of the first thief that went by" (not her own apetite) Otherwise great job! Thanks for the video! :-)

Where did you understand that I was implying it wasn't a success in France, when all I said was that it was "much more successful" in anglo-saxon countries?
C'est vrai que les paroles ne sont pas si bien traduites dans la version anglaise, mais je suis une grande fan de la version qu'Anne Hathaway en a faite alors, mon coeur va à la version anglaise :)
Il faut que les Rosbifs arrétent de nous piquer nos oeuvres littéraires patrimoniales pour les dénaturer sauce Broadway taps . Le fantôme de l'Opéra par exemple, ou Madame Butterfly et la Dame au Camélias. Sans oublier bien sûr leur hymne national du God Save the King copié note pour note sur un de nos cantiques français.
This one is good also in french, probably better than english...do you hear the people sing is very very better in english instead especially for the words...but is only my opinion...
I feel that quite a lot of the sentiments are lost in the translation to English. Like the part when she sang about the wolves, and that one of them caught their scent. Only when listening to this did I realised the wolf referred to that guy. Okay maybe I'm just slow, but when listening to the English version I always though the tigers always just refer to general hardships in life. The french version to me emphasized more on the lost of innocence.
The first part of the song maybe. She is actually praying. But after that she sings about stolen childhood, innocence, a dream of an other life. Nothing religious
C'est parce-qu'on a dégoûté les Français de leur propre langue - qui est soit dit en passant la mère de l'anglais ! - et qu'on a réussi à les persuader qu'ils étaient les derniers des derniers. Les Français ne sont pas les Premiers des Premiers (ce qui n'a d'ailleurs aucun sens) mais ils sont mieux que bien placés sur l'échelle de la culture, bien mieux que ce qu'on s'est mis à faire croire dans les écoles et sur les douteuses chaînes de télévisions de notre triste époque.
@@hermes3386 Quand a ton échelle de la culture je pense que tu t'es jamais balader à Paris... Je dirais plutôt que le Français n'est pas dernier mais clairement pas dans les premiers
@@justindems7436 Normalement, c'est le contraire. L'attrait pour l'exotisme à tout crin était jadis l’apanage des asociaux, des marginaux, des maltraités par leur famille, mais depuis les années 70 on a tout fait pour travailler les Français sur une base quotidienne, pour qu'ils admettent en tout et sur tous les tons qu'ils "ne sont pas le centre du monde". Ce qu'on n'exige jamais des autres peuples. Je vis hors d'Europe depuis plus de 20 ans, et j'ai visité de très nombreuses nations. Or, je n'ai jamais rencontré nulle part autant de commentaires publics ou privés, de films, téléfilms, publicités, romans, pièces de théâtre, documentaires s'attaquant autant et aussi souvent à l'identité des gens du pays. Après près de 50 ans de ce régime incessant, les Français trouvent tout mieux que chez eux. Et ceux chez qui la France, son Histoire, son patrimoine, sa langue, ses coutumes, sa gastronomie, sa musique, son cinéma etc. trouve encore grâce à leurs yeux, ces irréductibles sont immédiatement suspects de sympathies "d'extrême-droite". Ceux qui ont moins de 30 ans n'ont jamais connu un autre mode de pensée, tout leur semble couler de source, alors que le Peuple de France vit, en vérité, une réalité artificielle, schizophrène, pétrie de haine de soi et de nihilisme. On en voit les résultats, hélas...
I like the french version better because the lyrics give me a deeper understanding of the characters feelings. There it is. Its that simple.
that's the ORIGINAL in Francais please; the English one is the version
OMG there's an English version that's different from the original French one; Victor Hugo wrote that book dans langue francaise...
@M. N. The original is french directed by Robert Hossein in 1980 and adapted in english by Cameron Mackintosh in 1985
@M. Naples les melodies + le livret sont français.
Cameron a refait certains arrangements mais toutes les melodies appartiennent a Boublil et Chönberg qui sont des musiciens Français.

1991 Lyrics:
Doux Seigneur, Que vous ai-je fait,
Pour que plus je tombe,
Et plus vous me laissiez tomber?
J'avais rêvé d'un coeur si grand,
Que le mien y trouve place
Pour un bonheur à partager.
Doux Seigneur, Que vous ai-je fait?

Mais les loups rôdent dans la nuit;
Et l'un d'eux flairait ma trace.
Moi, j'ai comblé l'appétit
Du premier voleur qui passe.
Il a accoutumé ma vie
À la chaleur de sa présence.
Et puis un jour il est parti
En m'ayant volé mon enfance.
Parfois je rêve de lui encore:
Il me supplie et il regrette.
Mais le rêve s'éteint à l'aurore,
Comme les lampions d'un soir de fête.
J'avais rêvé d'une autre vie.
À peine commencée elle s'achève.
J'avais rêvé d'une autre vie,
Mais la vie a tué Mes rêves.
That was very helping, thank you!
Dans la version a Montréal les paroles était différente
Translation:
Dear Lord, what did I do to You?
Why did I fall? And You let me fall further?
I had a dream of a heart so big,
Where mine would find its place,
To share happiness.
Dear Lord, what did I do to You?
I dreamed a dream of another life,
When my life passed by like a dream,
I was prepared for all the antics,
For all the passions that would arise.
Then I was young, where was the harm?
I dreamed to laugh, to love, to live.
To dance until the end of the ball.
Too intoxicated with happiness to be free.
But the wolves came in the night,
And one of them found my trail.
I satisfied their appetite,
And gave myself to the first thief that passed,
He grew accustomed to my life.
I grew accustomed to his presence,
And then, one day, he disappeared,
And stole my childhood away too.
Sometimes I still dream of him,
That he regrets and begs forgiveness,
But this dream fades away at dawn,
Just as the lamps do after a party.
I had a dream of another life,
That would begin as mine is ending,
So different now from what it seemed.
But life has killed the dream I dreamed.
thank you, very helpful

I believe it is according to Stephen Farrow (see comments).
It sounds so much better sung in French.
@mdub2000 My pleasure!
Nice suggestion. I'd change it, but it would require changing my original, and re-uploading...too many other things to do. :)

This one is good also in french, probably better than english...do you hear the people sing is very very better in english instead especially for the words...but is only my opinion...
🇨🇵🇧🇪⚜
I prefer "Sweet Lord " as written as to Dear Lord. I think it better captures the 19th century french.
nice, but a piece of my heart broke off when I saw the Glee cover.
@meowool LOL!
The lyric is wrong when it says "I filled my appetite"... NO. 😡 The lyric is talking about the appetite of the wolf that is tracking her scent...
Mércie Victor Hugo. It'd be amazing if this was translated into Guernésiais....but nobody'd understand it, oim suposin...
I was surprised that the lyrics were that different...but I guess it gets the same meaning across.
~:~
I feel that quite a lot of the sentiments are lost in the translation to English. Like the part when she sang about the wolves, and that one of them caught their scent. Only when listening to this did I realised the wolf referred to that guy. Okay maybe I'm just slow, but when listening to the English version I always though the tigers always just refer to general hardships in life. The french version to me emphasized more on the lost of innocence.
The French version seems a LOT more religious than the English version? No? 😳
The first part of the song maybe. She is actually praying. But after that she sings about stolen childhood, innocence, a dream of an other life. Nothing religious
You might as well translate "folies" as "follys", since it has pretty much the same sense in English.

L'attrait pour l'exotisme à tout crin était jadis l’apanage des asociaux, des marginaux, des maltraités par leur famille, mais depuis les années 70 on a tout fait pour travailler les Français sur une base quotidienne, pour qu'ils admettent en tout et sur tous les tons qu'ils "ne sont pas le centre du monde". Ce qu'on n'exige jamais des autres peuples.
Je vis hors d'Europe depuis plus de 20 ans, et j'ai visité de très nombreuses nations. Or, je n'ai jamais rencontré nulle part autant de commentaires publics ou privés, de films, téléfilms, publicités, romans, pièces de théâtre, documentaires s'attaquant autant et aussi souvent à l'identité des gens du pays.
Après près de 50 ans de ce régime incessant, les Français trouvent tout mieux que chez eux. Et ceux chez qui la France, son Histoire, son patrimoine, sa langue, ses coutumes, sa gastronomie, sa musique, son cinéma etc. trouve encore grâce à leurs yeux, ces irréductibles sont immédiatement suspects de sympathies "d'extrême-droite". Ceux qui ont moins de 30 ans n'ont jamais connu un autre mode de pensée, tout leur semble couler de source, alors que le Peuple de France vit, en vérité, une réalité artificielle, schizophrène, pétrie de haine de soi et de nihilisme. On en voit les résultats, hélas...
je suis française je prefere la version anglaise largement
