Veni Vidi Vici's translation and analysis

[mal]

A hint of bliss
A temperament that makes people laugh

-Alizee's personality

Because anything can happen,
The weather says it's easier
If we met:
A lemon in the water,
Changing taste, without changing the hydra
Life is beautiful spice, enlivens
The life that piques and grows like a field of wheat

Alizee goes from unknown to know - lemon to lemonade but the core is the same.


Veni, Vedi, Vici
It's also very lucky that little by little bird made its nest, cosy
Veni, Vedi, Vici
My lucky star shines,
I have no flow
I was there and I like that

Alizee always speaks of her lucky star. Alizee came and became a huge star because of her lucky star.


A hint of femininity.
With a bodily girl (gamine)
The languages are facilitated, juror
The Latin I like jacket,


Both women and little girl is Alizee


A hint of infancy
When I say everything is moving too quickly
Here ensure mums, I
In the distance the bells of the city,
lives the wind ...


infancy - lolita
bells of city - paris
lives the wind - Alizee (gastonomic)

Alizee in Paris

A song about Alizee in my opinion.


Are you sure this translated correctly?:
The languages are facilitated, juror
The Latin I like jacket

Nice translation Mal

hi
well, the bells of the city, it could be everywhere, it's just a song
you could say the bells of clermond-ferrand, bombay or bamako
nothing in the song is linked to paris
imagine a hawaiian singing a song about the bells of the city, it could be everywhere, not specially ackron ohio or something
I know I'm gonna make most of you jump off their chair but she's lived most of the time in a city called ajaccio
cheers

for some reason I thought paris was the city of bells.

Then I change my interpretation to

In the distance the bells of the city,
lives the wind ...

-Far away in Ajaccio amongst beautiful women lives Alizee

in the distance (from Paris) - Ajaccio
bells of the city - belles beautys of the city
lives the wind - lives alizee

[ajaccio corsica]

hi
C'est là que veillent les mamans, j'entends
Au loin les cloches de la ville,
Vive le vent ...
her mum lives in ajaccio and her house is located near the cathedral, I'm not sure but it could be here, huh?
vive le vent: it's a child song, vive le vent, vive le vent vive le vent d'hiver etc... related to her childhood in the imperial city
cheers

Does this song make anyone else cry? Or shed a tear? I love this song so much.

Well, I despise Latin very much, yeah, but I still now that it has to be called "Veni Vidi Vici". Therefore I want to know if it's a mistake of Mylene or a mistake of all this webpages.

Other Romance languages have similar verb conjugations but with different spellings. Occitan and Catalan spell it "vedi" and it means the same thing as the Latin. I doubt it was a mistake. Perhaps, by using that spelling, instead of the famous Latin version, it implies something subtle that we don't quite understand because of the language/cultural barrier.

BTW, the translation given here isn't very accurate. I'm not fluent by any means, but there are obvious mistakes. This I think is a more accurate translation, of course, because I'm not fluent, there may still be mistakes (idioms are the bane of our existence!) and the only way to correct them would be to have someone fluent in both languages translate it.

Veni, Vedi, Vici

A dash of bliss
A laughing temperament
Because anything can happen
Time says it's easier
If we put:

A dash of citrus in the water,
It changes the taste, without changing the hydra
Life is a beautiful, spicy chili
Life which stings
Which grows like a corn field

I came, I saw, I conquered
It is a chance too
All little by little
The bird that nests, cozy
I came, I saw, I conquered
My good star shines, I have not
It's not my fault
I am good there and I love it

A dash of femininity

On a smart-bodied kid
Languages are easier, swear
Latin I love it in skin *(I think this may be an idiom, as it makes no sense literally)

A dash of infancy
When I say: it all goes too fast
It is what ensures the mothers, I mean
Far away the bells of the village,
Biting the wind...
