Lyrics and translation David Bowie - The Width of a Circle (2015 Remastered Version)




The Width of a Circle (2015 Remastered Version)
La largeur d'un cercle (version remasterisée 2015)
In the corner of the morning in the past
Dans le coin du matin, dans le passé
I would sit and blame the master first and last
Je m'asseyais et blâmais le maître en premier et en dernier
All the roads were straight and narrow
Tous les chemins étaient droits et étroits
And the prayers were small and yellow
Et les prières étaient petites et jaunes
And the rumour spread that I was aging fast
Et la rumeur se répandit que je vieillis rapidement
Then I ran across a monster who was sleeping by a tree
Puis j'ai croisé un monstre qui dormait près d'un arbre
And I looked and frowned and the monster was me
Et j'ai regardé et froncé les sourcils, et le monstre, c'était moi
Well, I said hello and I said hello
Alors, j'ai dit bonjour et j'ai dit bonjour
And I asked "Why not?" and I replied "I don't know."
Et j'ai demandé "Pourquoi pas ?" et j'ai répondu "Je ne sais pas".
So we asked a simple black bird, who was happy as can be
Alors, nous avons demandé à un simple oiseau noir, qui était heureux comme tout
And he laughed insane and quipped "KAHLIL GIBRAN"
Et il a ri de façon folle et a lancé "KAHLIL GIBRAN"
So I cried for all the others till the day was nearly through
Alors, j'ai pleuré pour tous les autres jusqu'à ce que le jour soit presque terminé
For I realized that God's a young man too
Car j'ai réalisé que Dieu est aussi un jeune homme
So I said "So long" and I waved "Bye-bye"
Alors, j'ai dit "Au revoir" et j'ai fait signe "Au revoir"
And I smashed my soul and traded my mind
Et j'ai brisé mon âme et échangé mon esprit
Got laid by a young bordello
Je me suis fait coucher par un jeune bordel
Who was vaguely half asleep
Qui était vaguement à moitié endormi
For which my reputation swept back home in drag
Pour laquelle ma réputation est rentrée à la maison en traînée
And the moral of this magic spell
Et la morale de ce sort magique
Negotiates my hide
Négocier ma peau
When God did take my logic for a ride
Quand Dieu a emmené ma logique pour une balade
(Riding along)
(En balade)
He swallowed his pride and puckered his lips
Il a avalé sa fierté et a fait la moue
And showed me the leather belt round his hips
Et m'a montré la ceinture en cuir autour de ses hanches
My knees were shaking my cheeks aflame
Mes genoux tremblaient, mes joues enflammées
He said "You'll never go down to the Gods again"
Il a dit "Tu ne descendras plus jamais chez les dieux"
(Turn around, go back!)
(Fais demi-tour, retourne en arrière!)
He struck the ground a cavern appeared
Il a frappé le sol, une caverne est apparue
And I smelt the burning pit of fear
Et j'ai senti l'odeur du puits brûlant de la peur
We crashed a thousand yards below
Nous nous sommes écrasés à mille mètres plus bas
I said "Do it again, do it again"
J'ai dit "Refais-le, refais-le"
(Turn around, go back!)
(Fais demi-tour, retourne en arrière!)
His nebulous body swayed above
Son corps nébuleux se balançait au-dessus
His tongue swollen with devil's love
Sa langue gonflée d'amour diabolique
The snake and I, a venom high
Le serpent et moi, un venin élevé
I said "Do it again, do it again"
J'ai dit "Refais-le, refais-le"
(Turn around, go back!)
(Fais demi-tour, retourne en arrière!)
Breathe, breathe, breathe deeply
Respire, respire, respire profondément
And I was seething, breathing deeply
Et je bouillonnais, respirant profondément
Spitting sentry, horned and tailed
Crachant la sentinelle, cornue et à queue
Waiting for you
Attendant de toi
