Lyrics and translation Bill Monroe - Prisoner's Song
Now,
if
I
had
the
wings
like
an
angel
Si
j'avais
des
ailes
comme
un
ange
Over
these
prison
walls
I
would
fly
Je
volerais
par-dessus
ces
murs
de
prison
I
would
fly
to
the
arms
of
my
darling
Je
volerais
dans
les
bras
de
ma
bien-aimée
And
there
I'd
be
willing
to
die
Et
là,
je
serais
prêt
à
mourir
Oh,
meet
me
tonight
before
leaving
Oh,
retrouve-moi
ce
soir
avant
de
partir
Meet
me
out
in
the
moonlight
alone
Retrouve-moi
au
clair
de
lune,
tout
seul
For
I
have
a
sad
story
to
tell
you
Car
j'ai
une
triste
histoire
à
te
raconter
Must
be
told
in
the
moonlight
alone
Elle
doit
être
dite
au
clair
de
lune,
tout
seul
Now
I
have
a
ship
on
the
ocean
J'ai
un
navire
sur
l'océan
All
mounted
with
silver
and
gold
Tout
monté
en
argent
et
en
or
And
before
my
little
darling
would
suffer
Et
avant
que
ma
petite
chérie
ne
souffre
That
ship
would
be
anchored
and
sold
Ce
navire
serait
ancré
et
vendu
Oh,
meet
tonight
before
leaving
Oh,
retrouve-moi
ce
soir
avant
de
partir
Meet
me
out
in
the
moonlight
alone
Retrouve-moi
au
clair
de
lune,
tout
seul
For
I
have

raconter
Must
be

the
moonlight
alone
Elle
doit
être
dite

clair
de
lune,
tout
seul
Oh,
I
wish
I
had
someone
to
love
me
Oh,
j'aimerais
que
quelqu'un
m'aime
Someone
to
call
me
their
own
Quelqu'un
qui
m'appelle
sien
Oh,
I
wish
I
had
someone
to

with
Oh,

quelqu'un
vive
avec
moi
For
I'm
tired
of
living
alone
Car
je
suis
fatigué
de
vivre
seul

Oh,
retrouve-moi
