Italian to French: my mistress' eyes By William Shakespear
General field: Art/Literary
Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - Italian








My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;

Coral is far more red than her lips' red;

If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;

If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.

I have seen roses damasked, red and white,

But no such roses see I in her cheeks;

And in some perfumes is there more delight

Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.

I love to hear her speak, yet well I know

That music hath a far more pleasing sound;

I grant I never saw a goddess go;

My mistress when she walks treads on the ground.

And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare

As any she belied with false compare 		Translation - French
Les yeux de ma maîtresse n'ont rien du soleil;

Le corail est bien plus rouge que le rouge de ses lèvres;

Si la neige est blanche, alors sa poitrine est beige;

Si les cheveux sont des fils d'or, ce sont des fils noirs qui poussent sur sa tête.

J'ai vu des roses de Damas, rouges et blanches,

Mais je ne vois aucune de ces roses sur ses joues;

Et certains parfums donnent plus grand plaisir

Que l'haleine fétide de ma maîtresse.

J'aime l'entendre parler, pourtant je sais bien

Que la musique a un son bien plus agréable.

J'admets n'avoir jamais vu une déesse se déplacer;

Ma maîtresse, quand elle marche, pose les pieds sur le sol.

Et pourtant, par le ciel, je tiens mon amour pour aussi rare

Que toute donzelle flattée par de fausses comparaisons.

Bio

10 years experience translator/ interpreter, I have worked mainly around Western Europe with governments, law enforcements, borders, hospitals, marketing, sales, general engineering , general corporates confidential paperwork… etc

I grew up around the yacht industry since a very young age and then realised my passion for foreign languages and the ability to talk with various nationals and get to know their culture.

I am a French Native speaker, but born from a British father, and French mother which gave me the opportunity to start from both languages as an anchor to expand my knowledge with the Italian language. I lived in Italy for over 10 years in Liguria and think my heart has never left the place.  

It's always key to finish work on a deadline and I always strive to make sure that my work is completed to full satisfaction for all parties involved.


Looking forward working with you.
