Lyrics and translation Anaïs Mitchell feat. Greg Brown - His Kiss, The Riot
The
devil
take
this
Orpheus
Que
le
diable
emporte
cet
Orphée
And
his
belladonna
kiss
Et
son
baiser
de
belladone
Beautiful
and
poisonous
Magnifique
et
toxique
Lovely!
Deadly
Adorable
! Mortel
Now
it
thickens
on
my
tongue
Maintenant
il
s'épaissit
sur
ma
langue
Now
it
quickens
in
my
lung
Maintenant
il
s'accélère
dans
mon
poumon
Now
I'm
stricken!
Now
I'm
stung
Maintenant
je
suis
frappée
! Maintenant
je
suis
piquée
It's
done
already
C'est
déjà
fait
Dangerous,
this
jack
of
hearts
Dangereux,
ce
valet
de
cœur
With
his
kiss,
the
riot
starts
Avec
son
baiser,
la
révolte
commence
All
my
children
came
here
poor
Tous
mes
enfants
sont
venus
ici
pauvres
Clamoring
for
bed
and
board
Demandant
un
lit
et
une
table
Now
what
do
they
clamor
for?
Maintenant,
que
réclament-ils
?
Freedom!
Freedom
Liberté
! Liberté
Have
I
made
myself
their
Lord
Me
suis-je
faite
leur
Seigneur
Just
to
fall
upon
the
sword
Juste
pour
tomber
sur
l'épée
Of
some
pauper's
minor
chord?
D'un
accord
mineur
d'un
pauvre
?
Who
will
lead
them?
Qui
les
guidera
?
Who
lays
all
the
best
laid
plans?
Qui
élabore
tous
les
meilleurs
plans
?
Who
makes
work
for
idle
hands?
Qui
crée
du
travail
pour
les
mains
oisives
?
Only
one
thing
to
be
done
Une
seule
chose
à
faire
Let
them
think
that
they
have
won
Laisse-les
penser
qu'ils
ont
gagné
Let
them
leave
together
Laisse-les
partir
ensemble
Under
one
condition
Sous
une
seule
condition
Orpheus,
the
undersigned
Orphée,
le
soussigné
Shall
not
turn
to
look
behind
Ne
se
retournera
pas
pour
regarder
derrière
lui
She's
out
of
sight
Elle
est
hors
de
vue
And
he's
out
of
his
mind
Et
il
est
fou
Every
coward
seems
courageous
Chaque
lâche
semble
courageux
In
the
safety
of
the
crowd
Dans
la
sécurité
de
la
foule
Bravery
can
be
contagious
La
bravoure
peut
être
contagieuse
When
the
band
is
playing
loud
Quand
le
groupe
joue
fort
Nothing
makes
a
man
so
bold
Rien
ne
rend
un
homme
aussi
audacieux
As
a
woman's
smile
and
a
hand
to
hold
Que
le
sourire
d'une
femme
et
une
main
à
tenir
But
all
alone,
his
blood
runs
thin
Mais
tout
seul,
son
sang
s'amenuise
And
doubt
comes...
doubt
comes
in
Et
le
doute
vient...
le
doute
vient
