Jack-A-Roe - Live at the Civic Center, Hartford, CT, March 19, 1990
Jack-A-Roe - Live au Civic Center, Hartford, CT, 19 mars 1990
JACK-A-ROE
JACK-A-ROE
There was a wealthy merchant, in London he did dwell
Il y avait un riche marchand, à Londres il habitait
He had a beautiful daughter, the truth to you I′ll tell
Il avait une belle fille, la vérité je te la dirai
Oh, the truth to you I'll tell
Oh, la vérité je te la dirai
She had sweethearts aplenty, and men of high degree
Elle avait des amoureux en abondance, et des hommes de haut rang
But none but Jack the sailor, her true love there could be
Mais aucun autre que Jack le marin, son véritable amour ne pouvait être
Oh, her true love there could be
Oh, son véritable amour ne pouvait être
Jackie′s gone a-sailing with trouble on his mind
Jackie est parti naviguer avec des ennuis en tête
He's left his native country, and his darling girl behind
Il a quitté son pays natal, et sa chère fille derrière lui
Oh, his darling girl behind
Oh, sa chère fille derrière lui
She went down to a tailor's shop and dressed in mens′ array
Elle est descendue chez un tailleur et s'est habillée en homme
She climbed on board a vessel to convey herself away
Elle est montée à bord d'un navire pour s'éloigner
Oh, to convey herself away.
Oh, pour s'éloigner.
Before you get on board, sir, your name we′d like to know
Avant de monter à bord, monsieur, votre nom nous aimerions savoir
She smiled all in her countenance, "They call me Jack-A-Roe."
Elle sourit tout en gardant son visage, "Ils m'appellent Jack-A-Roe."
Oh, they call me Jack-A-Roe.
Oh, ils m'appellent Jack-A-Roe.
I see your waist is slender, your fingers they are small
Je vois que ta taille est mince, tes doigts sont petits
Your cheeks too red and rosy to face the cannonball.
Tes joues trop rouges et roses pour faire face au boulet de canon.
Oh, to face the cannonball.
Oh, pour faire face au boulet de canon.
I know my waist is slender, my fingers, they are small
Je sais que ma taille est mince, mes doigts, ils sont petits
But it would not make me tremble to see ten thousand fall
Mais cela ne me ferait pas trembler de voir dix mille tomber
Oh, to see ten thousand fall.
Oh, pour voir dix mille tomber.
The wars then being over, she went and looked around
Les guerres étant alors terminées, elle alla regarder autour d'elle
Among the dead and wounded, her darling boy she found
Parmi les morts et les blessés, son garçon chéri elle trouva
Oh, her darling boy she found.
Oh, son garçon chéri elle trouva.
She picked him up all in her arms and carried him to the town
Elle le souleva dans ses bras et le porta en ville
She sent for a physician who quickly healed his wounds
Elle envoya chercher un médecin qui guérit rapidement ses blessures
Oh, who quickly healed his wounds.
Oh, qui guérit rapidement ses blessures.
This couple, they got married, so well they did agree
Ce couple, ils se sont mariés, ils s'entendaient si bien
This couple, they got married, so why don't you and me
Ce couple, ils se sont mariés, alors pourquoi pas toi et moi
Oh, so why don′t you and me?
Oh, alors pourquoi pas toi et moi ?
