Lyrics and translation Billie Holiday - God Bless The Child (1956 Version)




God Bless The Child (1956 Version)
Dieu bénisse l'enfant (version 1956)
Then that's got shall have
Alors c'est ça qui leur arrive
Then that's not shall lose
Et c'est ça qu'ils ne doivent pas
So the Bible said and it still is news
C'est ce que dit la Bible et c'est toujours actuel
Mama, may have, papa, may have
Maman, peut-être, papa, peut-être
But God, bless the child that's got his own
Mais Dieu, bénis l'enfant qui a le sien
That's got his own
Qui a le sien
Yes, the strong gets more
Oui, le fort en a plus
While the weak one's fade
Tandis que le faible s'évanouit
Empty pockets don't, ever make the grade
Les poches vides ne réussissent jamais
Mama, may have, papa, may have
Maman, peut-être, papa, peut-être
But God, bless the child that's got his own
Mais Dieu, bénis l'enfant qui a le sien
That's got his own
Qui a le sien
Money, you've got lots of friends
L'argent, tu as beaucoup d'amis
They're crowding 'round your door
Ils s'attroupent devant ta porte
But when you're gone and spending ends
Mais quand tu es parti et que les dépenses sont finies
They don't come no more
Ils ne viennent plus
Rich relations give
Les riches relations donnent
Crusts of bread and such
Des croûtes de pain et tout ça
You can help yourself
Tu peux t'en servir
But don't take too much
Mais n'en prends pas trop
Mama, may have, papa, may have
Maman, peut-être, papa, peut-être
But God, bless the child that's got his own
Mais Dieu, bénis l'enfant qui a le sien
That's got his own
Qui a le sien
Money, you've got lots of friends
L'argent, tu as beaucoup d'amis
They're crowding 'round your door
Ils s'attroupent devant ta porte
But when you're gone and spending ends
Mais quand tu es parti et que les dépenses sont finies
They don't come no more
Ils ne viennent plus
Rich relations give
Les riches relations donnent
Crusts of bread and such
Des croûtes de pain et tout ça
You can help yourself
Tu peux t'en servir
But don't take too much
Mais n'en prends pas trop
Mama, may have, papa, may have
Maman, peut-être, papa, peut-être
But God, bless the child that's got his own
Mais Dieu, bénis l'enfant qui a le sien
That's got his own
Qui a le sien
He just don't worry about nothin'
Il ne se soucie de rien
'Cause he's got his own
Parce qu'il a le sien
Yes he's got his own
Oui, il a le sien
