Lyrics and translation Christy Moore - Ballindine
As
I
wandered
abroad
by
Kilsheelan
Alors
que
je
me
promenais
dans
les
environs
de
Kilsheelan
Where
the
river
meanders
on
down
Où
la
rivière
serpente
en
descendant
To
my
left
lay
the
Comeragh
Mountains
À
ma
gauche
se
trouvaient
les
montagnes
de
Comeragh
To
the
right
of
me
sweet
Sliabh
na
mBan
À
ma
droite,
la
douce
Sliabh
na
mBan
Where
the
fishermen
cast
on
the
waters
Où
les
pêcheurs
lancent
leurs
lignes
sur
les
eaux
And
the
apples
are
pressed
into
wine
Et
les
pommes
sont
pressées
en
vin
Where
the
herd
returns
slowly
to
pasture
Où
le
troupeau
retourne
lentement
au
pâturage
Through
the
fields
that
surround
Ballydine
À
travers
les
champs
qui
entourent
Ballydine
I
marvelled
at
nature's
abundance
Je
m'émerveillais
de
l'abondance
de
la
nature
In
Tipperary
so
rich
and
so
rare
Dans
le
Tipperary,
si
riche
et
si
rare
I
drank
from
the
well
of
spring
water
J'ai
bu
à
la
source
d'eau
de
source
Breathing
in
deep
the
fresh
air
Inspirant
profondément
l'air
frais
When
I
came
to
John
Hanrahan's
homestead
Quand
je
suis
arrivé
à
la
ferme
de
John
Hanrahan
In
the
fields
around
Ballycurkeen
Dans
les
champs
autour
de
Ballycurkeen
I
lay
down
in
a
meadow
of
wild
flower
Je
me
suis
couché
dans
une
prairie
de
fleurs
sauvages
And
dreamt
a
mysterious
dream
Et
j'ai
fait
un
rêve
mystérieux
I
dreamt
of
a
curious
eviction
J'ai
rêvé
d'une
curieuse
expulsion
Unlike
the
evictions
of
old
Contrairement
aux
expulsions
d'antan
No
sign
of
a
redcoat
nor
bailiff
Pas
de
signe
de
soldat
rouge
ni
de
huissier
'Twas
more
pernicious
and
cold
C'était
plus
pernicieux
et
froid
On
the
air
cam
a
colourless
vapour
Dans
l'air
est
venue
une
vapeur
incolore
The
fields
they
felt
silent
and
still
Les
champs
se
sont
sentis
silencieux
et
immobiles
As
I
lay
in
that
meadow
of
wildflower
Alors
que
je
me
trouvais
dans
cette
prairie
de
fleurs
sauvages
Dreaming
on
Hanrahan's
hill
Rêvant
sur
la
colline
de
Hanrahan
When
I
awoke
I
was
frightenened
Quand
je
me
suis
réveillé,
j'étais
effrayé
I
knew
'twas
time
to
head
home
Je
savais
qu'il
était
temps
de
rentrer
à
la
maison
I
made
my
way
back
to
Cluan
Meala
Je
suis
retourné
à
Cluan
Meala
On
the
road
passing
Merck
Sharpe
and
Dohme
Sur
la
route
qui
passe
devant
Merck
Sharpe
et
Dohme
