Lady With a Fan (Live At Knickerbocker Arena, Albany, NY, March 1990)
La Dame au Ventilateur (Live à Knickerbocker Arena, Albany, NY, mars 1990)
Let
my
inspiration
flow
in
token
rhyme,
suggesting
rhythm,
Que
mon
inspiration
coule
dans
des
rimes
symboliques,
suggérant
un
rythme,
That
will
not
forsake
you,
till
my
tale
is
told
and
done.
Qui
ne
te
quittera
pas,
jusqu'à
ce
que
mon
conte
soit
raconté
et
terminé.
While
the
firelight's
aglow,
strange
shadows
from
the
flames
will
grow,
Alors
que
la
lumière
du
feu
brille,
d'étranges
ombres
des
flammes
vont
grandir,
Till
things
we've
never
seen
will
seem
familiar.
Jusqu'à
ce
que
des
choses
que
nous
n'avons
jamais
vues
semblent
familières.
Shadows
of
a
sailor,
forming
winds
both
foul
and
fair
all
swarm.
Ombres
d'un
marin,
formant
des
vents
violents
et
doux
qui
grouillent.
Down
in
Carlisle,
he
loved
a
lady
many
years
ago.
Dans
le
Carlisle,
il
aimait
une
femme
il
y
a
de
nombreuses
années.
Here
beside
him
stands
a
man,
a
soldier
from
the
looks
of
him,
Voici
à
côté
de
lui
un
homme,
un
soldat
à
ce
qu'il
paraît,
Who
came
through
many
fights,
but
lost
at
love.
Qui
a
traversé
de
nombreux
combats,
mais
a
perdu
en
amour.
While
the
story
teller
speaks,
a
door
within
the
fire
creaks;
Alors
que
le
conteur
parle,
une
porte
à
l'intérieur
du
feu
grince;
Suddenly
flies
open,
and
a
girl
is
standing
there.
Soudain
s'ouvre,
et
une
fille
se
tient
là.
Eyes
alight,
with
glowing
hair,
all
that
fancy
paints
as
fair,
Les
yeux
brillants,
avec
des
cheveux
incandescents,
tout
ce
que
la
fantaisie
peint
comme
beau,
She
takes
her
fan
and
throws
it,
in
the
lion's
den.
Elle
prend
son
éventail
et
le
lance,
dans
la
tanière
du
lion.
Which
of
you
to
gain
me,
tell,
will
risk
uncertain
pains
of
hell?
Lequel
d'entre
vous
pour
me
gagner,
dites-moi,
risquera-t-il
les
incertains
tourments
de
l'enfer
?
I
will
not
forgive
you
if
you
will
not
take
the
chance.
Je
ne
te
pardonnerai
pas
si
tu
ne
prends
pas
le
risque.
The
sailor
gave
at
least
a
try,
the
soldier
being
much
too
wise,
Le
marin
a
au
moins
essayé,
le
soldat
étant
bien
trop
sage,
Strategy
was
his
strength,
and
not
disaster.
La
stratégie
était
sa
force,
et
non
le
désastre.
The
sailor,
coming
out
again,
the
lady
fairly
leapt
at
him.
Le
marin,
revenant
à
nouveau,
la
femme
s'est
lancée
sur
lui.
That's
how
it
stands
today.
You
decide
if
he
was
wise.
C'est
comme
ça
que
ça
se
passe
aujourd'hui.
À
toi
de
décider
s'il
était
sage.
The
story
teller
makes
no
choice.
Soon
you
will
not
hear
his
voice.
Le
conteur
ne
fait
pas
de
choix.
Bientôt,
tu
n'entendras
plus
sa
voix.
His
job
is
to
shed
light,
and
not
to
master.
Son
travail
est
de
faire
la
lumière,
et
non
de
maîtriser.
Since
the
end
is
never
told,
we
pay
the
teller
off
in
gold,
Puisque
la
fin
n'est
jamais
dite,
nous
payons
le
conteur
en
or,
In
hopes
he
will
return,
but
he
cannot
be
bought
or
sold
En
espérant
qu'il
revienne,
mais
il
ne
peut
être
ni
acheté
ni
vendu
