[Plugin: Qtranslate] How to make a line break inside the gettext php function

Hello, i use the php gettext function in conjuction to this plugin to output proper translated text in my theme:

<?php _e('<!--:en-->some english text<!--:--><!--:it-->some italian text<!--:-->'); ?>

If i want to write other text but in next line how i can put the break?
I tried like that:

<?php _e('<!--:en-->some english text<!--:--><!--:it-->some italian text<!--:-->', '<!--:en-->more english text<!--:--><!--:it-->more italian text<!--:-->'); ?>

but it doesnt show the second part! (also no errors returns).
I also tried ” instead of ‘

or the only solution is to write 2 php gettext functions?

<?php _e('<!--:en-->some english text<!--:--><!--:it-->some italian text<!--:-->'); ?>
<?php _e('<!--:en-->more english text<!--:--><!--:it-->more italian text<!--:-->'); ?>

A last question, it’s also possible to insert some html code inside the php gettext function? Because if yes i could use
tag for example as solution.
