Burt Bacharach - Lie Back & Think of England - translation of the lyrics into French




Lie Back & Think of England
Allongez-vous et pensez à l'Angleterre
Lie back and think of England
Allongez-vous et pensez à l'Angleterre
Dream Her Majesty and wait
Rêvez de Sa Majesté et attendez
The hearts of Oak
Les cœurs de chêne
And the cliffs of Dover
Et les falaises de Douvres
The foggy day that follows night
Le jour brumeux qui suit la nuit
The clouded hills and meadows rolling
Les collines nuageuses et les prés vallonnés
The chimneys, mills and church bells tolling
Les cheminées, les moulins et les cloches des églises qui sonnent
They keep cycling down, an old country lane
Ils continuent de défiler, sur un vieux chemin de campagne
So lie back and think of England
Alors allongez-vous et pensez à l'Angleterre
The dream of summer gone too soon
Le rêve d'un été passé trop vite
The muffled drums of imperial heartbeats
Les tambours assourdis des battements de cœur impériaux
The lightly oiled voice in Old Rangoon
La voix légèrement huilée du vieux Rangoon
The splash of yellow spilled grown roses
L'éclaboussure de jaune des roses fanées
The map of the world that we once colour pick
La carte du monde que nous colorions autrefois
The lion's eyes that weeps, that never closes
Les yeux du lion qui pleurent, qui ne se ferment jamais
Just as the sun begins to sink
Juste au moment le soleil commence à se coucher
So lie back and think of England
Alors allongez-vous et pensez à l'Angleterre
Or if not, then just think of me
Ou sinon, pensez simplement à moi, ma chérie.
