Mirabeau Bridge
Below the Pont Mirabeau
Slow flows the Seine
And all our loves together
Must I recall again
Joy would always follow
After pain
Hands holding hands
Let us stand face to face
While underneath the bridge
Of our arms entwined slow race
Eternal gazes flowing
At wave's pace
Let night fall, let the hours go by
The days pass on and here I stand
Love runs away
Like running water flows
Love flows away
But oh how slow life goes
How violent is hope
Love only knows
Let night fall, let the hours go by
The days pass on and here stand I
The days flow ever on
The weeks pass by in vain
Time never will return
Nor our loves burn again
Below the Pont Mirabeau
Slow flows the Seine
Let night fall, let the hours go by
The days pass on and here I stand
Translation:
p>The rolling flow of the Seine under the Mirabeau Bridge
Our love is gone and there is no turning back
It’s hard to look back again
For the sake of happiness, we always I have endured all the hardship
The bells are ringing as night falls
Time has passed and I am left alone
We face each other and hold hands
< p>The eternal gazeUnder the bridge of our arms
Disappearing at the end with ripples of exhaustion
The bell sounds long as night falls
Time has passed but I am left alone
Love rolls away like a surging river
Never look back
Time is so slow
Hope is strong and hard to hold on to
Night falls and the bells ring slowly
Time has passed but I am left alone
Day after day, week after week
The years roll by
Love is over
It’s like the water of the Seine never looks back
The bells ring as night falls
Time has passed, but I am alone
It is said that there are 35 bridges on the Seine River flowing through urban Paris. The bridges and the river complement each other, forming a beautiful scenery on the Seine River. The Innes Bridge next to the Palace of Chaillot was built to commemorate the Franco-Prussian War. The eagle statues and cavalry statues on the bridge are the work of the sculptor Ballier; the Concorde Bridge with the same name as the Place de la Concorde is majestic and was built in 1791. In 2006, it was designed by engineer Behannay. The building stones of the bridge were taken from the Bastille, which means "the people can continue to despise the old castle"; the Pont des Arts, located next to the Louvre, is a steel frame structure paved with wooden boards. The reason why the pedestrian bridge is named "Art" is said to be related to Napoleon's change of the Louvre into an "Art Museum"; the Royal Bridge is one of the historic stone bridges in Paris. It is in the shape of an exaggerated donkey's back and was completed in 1698. Fully funded by King Louis XIII, the Royal Bridge is named after it; the Pont Marie is named after the design of this bridge, which is arched and decorated with niches near the piers. Through this bridge, you can reach Saint-Louis Island; the Mirabeau Bridge is a representative metal building at the end of the 19th century. The bridge became famous because the French poet Apollie lamented the passage of time and wrote a poem titled "The Mirabeau Bridge". And was recorded in the history of world literature.
