COLORIAGE MONDAIN
Pour toile de fond, un marron de complaisance
Lointain souvenir de notre Terre en abondance
Ensuite d'épaisses rivières rouge vermillon
Charriant les vies de tous les peuples moribonds
Quelques zestes de jaune comme flux migrateurs
Les diverses nuances du bleu en guise de profondeur
Puis des flottilles de noir pour mettre en valeur le blanc
Les 2 ou 3 touches vert tendre de notre écologique élan
Enfin, le sceau gris anthracite de l'Homme tendance
Avec lequel il perce la couche d'ozone à sa convenance
MY TRADUCTION
WORLDLY COLOURING
For background, a complacency brown
Distant memory of our Earth in abundance
Just after thick red vermilion rivers
Transporting the lives of all moribund peoples
Some zests of yellow like migratory flows
The various shades of blue by way of a depth
Then flotillas of black for highlighting the white
2 or 3 tender green touches for our ecological run-up
Finally, anthracite gray seal of the tendency Human
With which he pierces the ozone layer at his discretion
Some zests of yellow like migratory flows
The various shades of blue by way of a depth
Then flotillas of black for highlighting the white
2 or 3 tender green touches for our ecological run-up
Finally, anthracite gray seal of the tendency Human
With which he pierces the ozone layer at his discretion
I loved it! I translated it myself and I can tell you have been proofing your own work for English and you are doing a great job! I could tell the difference and it helps! Good for you! Did you notice how much better translation is on g+? Makes it a little easier!
