Lyrics and translation Billy Bragg - There Is Power In a Union (Live San Fransisco 3 June 1985)




There Is Power In a Union (Live San Fransisco 3 June 1985)
Il y a du pouvoir dans un syndicat (Live San Fransisco 3 juin 1985)
There is power in a factory, power in the land
Il y a du pouvoir dans une usine, du pouvoir dans la terre
Power in the hands of a worker
Du pouvoir entre les mains d'un travailleur
But it all amounts to nothing if together we don't stand
Mais tout cela ne sert à rien si nous ne nous tenons pas ensemble
There is power in a Union
Il y a du pouvoir dans un syndicat
Now the lessons of the past were all learned with workers' blood
Maintenant, les leçons du passé ont toutes été apprises avec le sang des travailleurs
The mistakes of the bosses we must pay for
Les erreurs des patrons, nous devons les payer
From the cities and the farmlands to trenches full of mud
Des villes et des campagnes aux tranchées pleines de boue
War has always been the bosses' way, sir
La guerre a toujours été la voie des patrons, mon cher
The Union forever defending our rights
Le syndicat défendant toujours nos droits
Down with the blackleg, all workers unite
À bas les briseurs de grève, tous les travailleurs s'unissent
With our brothers and our sisters from many far off lands
Avec nos frères et nos sœurs de nombreux pays lointains
There is power in a Union
Il y a du pouvoir dans un syndicat
Now I long for the morning that they realise
Maintenant, j'aspire au matin ils réaliseront
Brutality and unjust laws can not defeat us
La brutalité et les lois injustes ne peuvent pas nous vaincre
But who'll defend the workers who cannot organise
Mais qui défendra les travailleurs qui ne peuvent pas s'organiser
When the bosses send their lackies out to cheat us?
Quand les patrons envoient leurs laquais nous tromper ?
Money speaks for money, the Devil for his own
L'argent parle pour l'argent, le diable pour le sien
Who comes to speak for the skin and the bone
Qui vient parler pour la peau et l'os
What a comfort to the widow, a light to the child
Quelle consolation pour la veuve, une lumière pour l'enfant
There is power in a Union
Il y a du pouvoir dans un syndicat
The Union forever defending our rights
Le syndicat défendant toujours nos droits
Down with the blackleg, all workers unite
À bas les briseurs de grève, tous les travailleurs s'unissent
With our brothers and our sisters together we will stand
Avec nos frères et nos sœurs, nous resterons ensemble
There is power in a Union.
Il y a du pouvoir dans un syndicat.
