Fairport Convention - Little Did I Think - Live On 'The Man They Could Not Hang', 1975 - translation of the lyrics into French




Little Did I Think - Live On 'The Man They Could Not Hang', 1975
J'aurais jamais pensé - En direct sur 'The Man They Could Not Hang', 1975
Little did I think when the judge first spoke
J'aurais jamais pensé que le juge dirait
Those awful words to me
Ces mots terribles à mon égard
That I would feel again the cold winds blow
Que je sentirais à nouveau le vent froid souffler
And a heart would beat in ′Babbacombe' Lee
Et qu'un cœur battrait dans ′Babbacombe' Lee
I was born to lead a life of sorrow
Je suis pour mener une vie de tristesse
Friends hang their heads in shame
Mes amis baissent la tête de honte
Growing tired and weary of the morrow
Fatigué et las du lendemain
Tortured by my terrible name
Tourmenté par mon nom terrible
When I was fifteen, my father called to me
Quand j'avais quinze ans, mon père m'a appelé
Saying, "Now you are a man and all men work
Disant : "Maintenant tu es un homme et tous les hommes travaillent
There′s a lady and they say her name's Miss Keyes
Il y a une dame et on dit qu'elle s'appelle Miss Keyes
Her pony's very old, it needs a nurse"
Son poney est très vieux, il a besoin d'une nurse"
For eighteen months I worked for her at Hadley Glen
Pendant dix-huit mois, j'ai travaillé pour elle à Hadley Glen
She was like a mother to me
Elle était comme une mère pour moi
But time goes slowly when you′re thinking wishfully
Mais le temps passe lentement quand tu penses avec espoir
Of all the other places to be
A tous les autres endroits être
There were boats drifting in the harbour
Il y avait des bateaux qui dérivaient dans le port
There were sailors talking in the town
Il y avait des marins qui parlaient dans la ville
That′s the life for a boy who wants to wander
C'est la vie pour un garçon qui veut errer
For a man who doesn't want to settle down
Pour un homme qui ne veut pas s'installer
