A JOURNEY BACK TO ENDEARMENT

A JOURNEY BACK TO ENDEARMENT



FLYING A SECRET



I got here to hide. From equations and patterns. From repetition, after all.
Closed the door and got me a special place where I thought I could
somehow sit close to the stars. But I soon found out that the sky was
still opaque, no matter what the steps. And so I left. Again.

I thought, then, I could build me a different ceiling, a new-coloured scrap
of highness. And then make it work. Where I could dream, more than I sleep.
I have long decided that sleeping is overrated - that I know for sure. So I
take that time instead to travel the night alone and in the meantime I allow
myself to fly, unlike stated before... Yes, I like playing with paradox, to
expose the inside of words and the revelation of writing down the voice of a
silence. My adventurous, ever-walking silence.

So I came back. Here, within this quiet world, I intend to gather all my
things usually kept hidden or inactive. They are here to speak.

And since the future is a stand-by secret, I want to live by a precocious
clock, at every running instant of every entering second.

And I will not slow down until my "future exists now" - kind of reverse
quoting Jacob Bronowski.

JEAN VALLÉE - Belgique




 né PAUL GOEDERS





Oct 2, 1941, Verviers, Belgique
 
Mar 12, 2014, Thimister-Clermont, Belgique



De vez em quando lá ia à procura dele, uma e outra vez sem sucesso, ano após ano. Há muito que desistira mas hoje chegou-me assim à memória, vindo de não sei onde, um conjunto diverso de temas da eurovisão que nunca mais partiram. Alguns nacionais de grande qualidade, especialmente da era Ary / Niza / Tinoco, e depois, inevitavelmente, este.

É o meu tesouro de todos os tempos, vindo da Eurovisão. Recordava a música, que acho linda, e pedaços da magistral letra, os “crayons de couleurs” mis dans le coeur “pour dessiner le monde”, ou “des ailes pour monter dans le ciel jusqu’au septième étage”, ou ainda “c’est tellement fantastique”, ele, o amor. E foi com estes pedacinhos que a descobri, por fim.

Tinha eu 21 anos, diz que sim, mas nunca, nunca mais me largou. Agarrou-se para a vida. E aí está ela, hoje. Talvez peanuts para outros mas, para mim, esta canção é régia.

E só podia ser escrita assim. Porque o Amor fala em francês.

Para “L’amour” ou “Je t’aime” não existe tradução à altura em mais nenhuma língua do universo.

Não há. Tal como a “Saudade”, que só em português luso se cumpre.


Da Bélgica, chegou Jean Vallée.
Como chegou Brel. Que parece respirar por aqui, também.

« L’AMOUR, ÇA FAIT CHANTER LA VIE

L'amour, ça vous met dans le cœur
Des crayons de couleurs pour dessiner le monde
L'amour, on devient musicien
De vrais petits Chopin, rien que pour une blonde

L'amour, c'est tellement fantastique
Ça met le bonheur en musique
Ça rit de toute sa symphonie
L'amour, ça fait changer la vie

L'amour, ça vous met dans les yeux
Un regard fabuleux qui vous change un visage
L'amour, ça vous donne des ailes
Pour monter dans le ciel jusqu'au septième étage

L'amour, c'est tellement fantastique
Ça met le bonheur en musique
Ça rit de toute sa symphonie
L'amour, ça fait changer la vie

L'amour, c'est un grand magicien
Qui vous change un chagrin en moins d'une seconde
L'amour, en un mot comme en cent
Ça vous donne vingt ans dans tous les coins du monde

L'amour, c'est tellement fantastique
Ça met le bonheur en musique
Ça rit de toute sa symphonie
L'amour, ça fait chanter la vie

La vie...!  »
