Jack Doyle (Aka The Contender) - Christy Mooretranslation in French
When
i
was
young
and
I
was
in
my
day
Quand
j'étais
jeune
et
que
j'étais
dans
ma
journée
I
could
steal
what
womans
heart
there
was
away
Je
pouvais
voler
le
cœur
de
toutes
les
femmes
Sing
and
dance
into
the
dawning
Chanter
et
danser
jusqu'à
l'aube
Blaze
a
trail
until
the
morning
Battre
un
chemin
jusqu'au
matin
Long
before
I
was
the
man
you
see
today
Longtemps
avant
que
je
ne
devienne
l'homme
que
tu
vois
aujourd'hui
And
I
was
born
beneath
the
star
that
promised
all
Et
je
suis
né
sous
l'étoile
qui
promettait
tout
I
could
have
lived
my
life
between
cork
cobh
and
youghal
J'aurais
pu
vivre
ma
vie
entre
Cork
Cobh
et
Youghal
But
the
wheel
of
fortune
took
me
Mais
la
roue
de
la
fortune
m'a
emporté
From
the
highest
point
she
shook
me
Du
point
le
plus
haut,
elle
m'a
secoué
By
the
bottle
live
by
the
bottle
i
shall
fall
Par
la
bouteille,
je
vivrai
par
la
bouteille,
je
tomberai
But
there
in
the
mirror
on
the
wall
Mais
là,
dans
le
miroir
sur
le
mur
I
see
the
dream
is
fading
Je
vois
le
rêve
s'estomper
From
the
contender
to
the
fall
Du
prétendant
à
la
chute
The
ring,
the
rose,
the
matador,
raving
Le
ring,
la
rose,
le
matador,
enragé
And
when
I
die
I'll
die
a
drunk
down
on
the
street
Et
quand
je
mourrai,
je
mourrai
ivre
dans
la
rue
You
can
count
me
out
to
ten
in
clear
defeat
Tu
peux
me
compter
jusqu'à
dix
en
défaite
claire
Rap
the
stary
plough
around
me
Frape
la
charrue
étoilée
autour
de
moi
Let
the
pipers
air
resound
me
Laisse
les
airs
des
pipers
résonner
autour
de
moi
There
I'll
rest
until
the
lord
of
love
I
meet
Là,
je
me
reposerai
jusqu'à
ce
que
je
rencontre
le
seigneur
de
l'amour
But
there
in
the
mirror
on
the
wall
Mais
là,
dans
le
miroir
sur
le
mur
I
see
the
dream
is
fading
Je
vois
le
rêve
s'estomper
From
the
contender
to
the
brawl
Du
prétendant
à
la
bagarre
The
ring,
the
rose,
the
matador,
raving
Le
ring,
la
rose,
le
matador,
enragé
