Lyrics and translation Bob Dylan - When the Ship Comes In (Live)
When the Ship Comes In (Live)
Quand le bateau arrive (En direct)
Oh,
the
time
will
come
up
when
the
winds
will
stop
Oh,
le
temps
viendra
où
les
vents
cesseront
And
the
breeze
will
cease
to
be
breathin'
Et
la
brise
cessera
de
respirer
Like
the
stillness
in
the
wind
before
the
hurricane
begins
Comme
le
calme
dans
le
vent
avant
le
début
de
l'ouragan
The
hour
that
the
ship
comes
in
L'heure
où
le
bateau
arrive
And
the
sea
will
split
and
the
ships
will
hit
Et
la
mer
se
fendra
et
les
navires
s'entrechoqueront
And
the
sands
on
the
shoreline
will
be
shaking
Et
les
sables
du
rivage
trembleront
And
the
tide
will
sound
and
the
waves
will
pound
Et
la
marée
sonnera
et
les
vagues
frapperont
And
the
morning
will
be
a-breaking
Et
le
matin
se
lèvera
Oh,
the
fishes
will
laugh
as
they
swim
out
of
the
path
Oh,
les
poissons
riront
en
nageant
hors
du
chemin
And
the
seagulls,
they'll
be
smiling
Et
les
mouettes,
elles
souriront
And
the
rocks
on
the
sand
will
proudly
stand
Et
les
rochers
sur
le
sable
se
tiendront
fièrement
The
hour
that
the
ship
comes
in
L'heure
où
le
bateau
arrive
And
the
words
that
are
used
for
to
get
the
ship
confused
Et
les
mots
qui
sont
utilisés
pour
confondre
le
bateau
Will
not
be
understood
as
they're
spoken
Ne
seront
pas
compris
lorsqu'ils
seront
prononcés
For
the
chains
of
the
sea
will
have
busted
in
the
night
Car
les
chaînes
de
la
mer
se
seront
brisées
dans
la
nuit
And
be
buried
on
the
bottom
of
the
ocean
Et
seront
ensevelies
au
fond
de
l'océan
A
song
will
lift
as
the
mainsail
shifts
Un
chant
s'élèvera
lorsque
la
grand-voile
bougera
And
the
boat
drifts
onto
the
shoreline
Et
le
bateau
dériviera
vers
le
rivage
And
the
sun
will
respect
every
face
on
the
deck
Et
le
soleil
respectera
chaque
visage
sur
le
pont
The
hour
that
the
ships
come
in
L'heure
où
les
bateaux
arrivent
And
the
sands
will
roll
out
a
carpet
of
gold
Et
les
sables
dérouleront
un
tapis
d'or
For
your
weary
toes
to
be
a-touchin'
Pour
que
tes
pieds
fatigués
puissent
le
toucher
And
the
ships'
wise
men
will
remind
you
once
again
Et
les
sages
hommes
des
navires
te
rappelleront
une
fois
de
plus
That
the
whole
wide
world
is
watchin'
Que
le
monde
entier
regarde
Oh,
the
foes
will
rise
with
the
sleep
still
in
their
eyes
Oh,
les
ennemis
se
lèveront
avec
le
sommeil
encore
dans
les
yeux
And
they'll
jerk
from
their
beds
and
think
they're
dreaming
Et
ils
se
tireront
de
leurs
lits
et
penseront
qu'ils
rêvent
But
they'll
pinch
themselves
and
squeal
and
they'll
know
that
it's
for
real
Mais
ils
se
pinceront
et
crieront
et
ils
sauront
que
c'est
réel
The
hour
that
the
ships
come
in
L'heure
où
les
bateaux
arrivent
And
they'll
raise
their
hands,
saying,
"We'll
meet
all
your
demands"
Et
ils
lèveront
les
mains
en
disant
: "Nous
répondrons
à
toutes
vos
demandes"
But
we'll
shout
from
the
bow,
"Your
days
are
numbered"
Mais
nous
crierons
de
la
proue
: "Vos
jours
sont
comptés"
And
like
Pharaoh's
tribe,
they'll
be
drowned
in
the
tide
Et
comme
la
tribu
de
Pharaon,
ils
seront
noyés
dans
la
marée
And
like
Goliath
they'll
be
conquered
Et
comme
Goliath,
ils
seront
vaincus
