Lyrics and translation Bessie Smith - Careless Love Blues (Alternate Take)
Love,
oh
love,
oh
careless
love
L'amour,
oh
l'amour,
oh
l'amour
insouciant
You
fly
though
my
head
like
wine
Tu
voles
dans
ma
tête
comme
du
vin
You've
wrecked
the
life
of
a,
many
a
poor
girl
Tu
as
ruiné
la
vie
de
nombreuses
pauvres
filles
And
you
nearly
spoiled
this
life
of
mine
Et
tu
as
presque
gâché
ma
vie
Love,
oh
love,
oh
careless
love
L'amour,
oh
l'amour,
oh
l'amour
insouciant
In
your
clutches
of
desire
Dans
tes
griffes
de
désir
You
made
me
break
a
many
true
vow
Tu
m'as
fait
rompre
de
nombreux
serments
sincères
Then
you
set
my
very
soul
on
fire
Puis
tu
as
mis
mon
âme
en
feu
Love,
oh
love,
oh
careless
love
L'amour,
oh
l'amour,
oh
l'amour
insouciant
All
my
happiness
has
left
Tout
mon
bonheur
est
parti
You
filled
my
heart
with
them
weary
old
blues
Tu
as
rempli
mon
cœur
de
ces
vieux
blues
lassants
Now
I'm
walkin'
talkin'
to
myself
Maintenant
je
marche
et
parle
à
moi-même
Love,

Trusted
you,
now
it's
too
late
J'avais
confiance
en
toi,
maintenant
il
est
trop
tard
You've
made
me
throw
my
only
friend
down
Tu
m'as

That's
why
I

I
weep
and
moan
Jour
et
nuit,
je
pleure
et
je
gémis

man
into
my
life
Tu
as
amené
le
mauvais
homme
dans
ma
vie
For
my
sins,
till
judgment
I'll
atone
Pour
mes
péchés,
jusqu'au
jugement,
je
ferai
pénitence
