You have to either :
1) Sign up for French classes, or
2) Spend innumerable hours listening and karaokeing to the tunes of Edith Piaf and Jacques Brel to practice "comment rouler vos r"
On the other hand, you can pronounce it Desiray and run the risk of becoming the laughing stock of some snotty native froggy ("oh, ces especes de cons americains sont carrement incultes!":P
