At the moment your haml is resulting in markup that looks like


<div class="content">
  <p></p>
  Translated text here
</div>

So it should be clear why the style rules for p have no effect. What I was 
trying to say was that for the translated text to be inside the p element you 
need to indent it, that is

%p
  = I18n.t(...)

Or perhaps I've got the wrong end of the stick and you should spell out what 
you're trying to do, as Walter suggests.
