a happy song

8:21 pm Category: music

From Serge Gainsbourg (father of actress Charlotte Gainsbourg, yes) - Ce Mortel Ennui

Babelfish translates this as “this mortal trouble”. Has “ennui” developed extra layers of meaning in English or is Babelfish offering the most simplistic (not even simplest) translation?
