Lyrics and translation Carmen McRae - Strange Fruit (Remastered)




Strange Fruit (Remastered)
Fruit étrange (Remasterisé)
Southern trees bear a strange fruit,
Les arbres du Sud portent un fruit étrange,
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root,
Du sang sur les feuilles et du sang à la racine,
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze,
Des corps noirs balancés dans la brise du Sud,
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees.
Fruits étranges suspendus aux peupliers.
Pastoral scene of the gallant south,
Scène pastorale du Sud galant,
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth,
Les yeux exorbités et la bouche tordue,
Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh,
Senteur de magnolias, douce et fraîche,
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh.
Puis l'odeur soudaine de chair brûlée.
Here is fruit for the crows to pluck,
Voici des fruits pour les corbeaux à cueillir,
For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck,
Pour la pluie à ramasser, pour le vent à aspirer,
For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop,
Pour le soleil à faire pourrir, pour les arbres à laisser tomber,
Here is a strange and bitter crop.
Voici une récolte étrange et amère.
