House Carpenter - Unreleased, Self Portrait
Le Charpentier - Inédit, Autoportrait
This a story about a ghost come back from out of the sea
Voici une histoire d'un fantôme qui revient de la mer
Come to take his bride away from the house carpenter
Pour emmener sa fiancée loin du charpentier
Well met, well met, my own true love
Bien rencontré, bien rencontré, mon véritable amour
Well met, well met, cried she
Bien rencontré, bien rencontré, a-t-elle crié
I've just returned from the salt, salt sea
Je reviens juste du sel, de la mer salée
And it's all for the love of thee
Et c'est tout pour l'amour de toi
I could have married a king's daughter there
J'aurais pu épouser la fille d'un roi là-bas
She would have married me
Elle m'aurait épousé
But I have forsaken my king's daughter there
Mais j'ai abandonné la fille du roi là-bas
It's all for the love of thee
C'est tout pour l'amour de toi
Well, if you could have married a king's daughter there
Eh bien, si tu aurais pu épouser la fille d'un roi là-bas
I'm sure you're the one to blame
Je suis sûr que tu es le seul à blâmer
For I am married to a house carpenter
Car je suis marié à un charpentier
And I'm sure he's a fine young man
Et je suis sûr que c'est un beau jeune homme
Forsake, forsake your house carpenter
Abandonne, abandonne ton charpentier
And come away with me
Et viens avec moi
I'll take you where the green grass grows
Je t'emmènerai là où l'herbe verte pousse
On the shores of sunny Italy
Sur les rives de la belle Italie
So up she picked her babies three
Alors elle a pris ses trois bébés
And gave them kisses, one, two, three
Et leur a donné des baisers, un, deux, trois
Saying, "Take good care of your daddy when I'm gone
En disant :« Prends soin de ton papa quand je serai partie
And keep him good company"
Et tiens-lui compagnie »
Well, they were sailin' about two weeks
Eh bien, ils ont navigué pendant environ deux semaines
I'm sure it was not three
Je suis sûr que ce n'était pas trois
When the younger of the girls, she came on deck
Lorsque la plus jeune des filles est montée sur le pont
Sayin' she wants company
En disant qu'elle veut de la compagnie
Well, are you weepin' for your house and home?
Eh bien, pleures-tu pour ta maison et ton foyer ?
Or are you weepin' for your babies three?
Ou pleures-tu pour tes trois bébés ?
Well, I'm not weepin' for my house carpenter
Eh bien, je ne pleure pas pour mon charpentier
I'm weepin' for my babies three
Je pleure pour mes trois bébés
Oh what are those hills yonder, my love
Oh, quelles sont ces collines là-bas, mon amour
They look as white as snow
Elles semblent aussi blanches que la neige
Those are the hill of heaven, my love
Ce sont les collines du paradis, mon amour
You and I'll never know
Toi et moi, nous ne les connaîtrons jamais
Oh what are those hills yonder, my love
Oh, quelles sont ces collines là-bas, mon amour
They look as dark as night
Elles semblent aussi sombres que la nuit
Those are the hills of hell fire my love
Ce sont les collines du feu de l'enfer, mon amour
Where you and I will unite
Où toi et moi, nous nous réunirons
Oh twice around went the gallant ship
Oh, deux fois autour du navire galant
I'm sure it was not three
Je suis sûr que ce n'était pas trois
When the ship all of a sudden, it sprung a leak
Lorsque le navire, soudainement, a pris l'eau
And it drifted to the bottom of the sea
Et il a sombré au fond de la mer
