Song of My Love's Story (W/ English Translation)--Ros Sothea

This is one of my favorite songs by my all-time favorite Khmer female singer. The translation is kind of rough, but I hope it's good enough for the viewers to make out what the song is about.


As always, your comment, suggestion, or correction will be greatly appreciated.

As I love this song, here's my attempt in translating it. It corresponds to the video. My Cambodian is very limited and basic as I am isolated from Khmer people since the age of 7 and still am.

Part 1 of 3.

This song is a tale of my love.

This love is grandeur in the scheme of life.

It is not a game, but of true love,

Though, I am suffering in this life time.

This song is the flaming sound of sorrow.

I’d rather suffer silently then utter it.

If I die, my death will be with meaning.

Part 3 of 3. If you feel the need to curse, go ahead and curse. Curse until you’re completely satisfied If you truly believe that I am disloyal. Someday when you come to realize, you will, Surely regret and pity me. As for my feeling it still loves. It loves you still and can not forget. The faithfulness it inhabits my body and soul. Even when life ends I will remain loyal.

Part 2 of 3. This story of eternal love I bestow upon you. If you feel the need to curse, go ahead and curse. Curse until you’re completely satisfied If you truly believe that I am disloyal. Someday when you come to realize, you will, Surely regret and pity me. As for my feeling it still loves. It loves you still and can not forget. The faithfulness it inhabits my body and soul. Even when life ends I will love you still.

Sorry for the numerous removals. I tried to edit part 2 and 3 to make them look like part 1 for line by line translation. Oh well, I gave it my best shot.
