Lyrics and translation Grateful Dead - My Brother Esau (Live at Providence Civic Center, Providence, RI - 3/31/86)




My Brother Esau (Live at Providence Civic Center, Providence, RI - 3/31/86)
Mon frère Esaü (En direct du Providence Civic Center, Providence, RI - 31/03/86)
My brother Esau killed a hunter
Mon frère Esaü a tué un chasseur
Back in 1969
En 1969
And before the killing was done,
Et avant que le meurtre ne soit commis,
His inheritance was mine.
Son héritage était le mien.
But his birthright was a wand to wave
Mais son droit d'aînesse était une baguette magique à agiter
Before a weary band.
Devant une bande fatiguée.
Esau gave me sleeplessness
Esaü m'a donné l'insomnie
And a piece of moral land.
Et un morceau de terre morale.
My father favored Esau,
Mon père favorisait Esaü,
Who was eager to obey
Qui était désireux d'obéir
All the bloody wild commandments
À tous les commandements sauvages et sanglants
The Old Man shot his way.
Le Vieil Homme a tiré sur son chemin.
But all this favor ended
Mais toute cette faveur a pris fin
When my brother failed at war.
Lorsque mon frère a échoué à la guerre.
He staggered home
Il est rentré chez lui en titubant
And found me in the door.
Et m'a trouvé à la porte.
Esau skates on mirrors anymore...
Esaü patine sur des miroirs maintenant...
He meets his pale reflection at the door.
Il rencontre sa pâle réflexion à la porte.
Yet sometimes at night I dream
Mais parfois, la nuit, je rêve
He′s still that hairy man,
Qu'il est encore cet homme poilu,
Shadowboxing the Apocalypse
Qui boxe l'ombre de l'Apocalypse
And wandering the land.
Et erre sur la terre.
Shadowboxing the Apocalypse
Qui boxe l'ombre de l'Apocalypse
And wandering the land.
Et erre sur la terre.
Esau holds a blessing;
Esaü détient une bénédiction ;
Brother Esau bears a curse.
Frère Esaü porte une malédiction.
I would say that the blame is mine
Je dirais que la faute est la mienne
But I suspect it's something worse.
Mais je soupçonne que c'est quelque chose de pire.
The more my brother looks like me,
Plus mon frère me ressemble,
The less I understand
Moins je comprends
The silent war that bloodied both our hands.
La guerre silencieuse qui a ensanglanté nos deux mains.
Sometimes at night, I think I understand.
Parfois, la nuit, je crois comprendre.
It′s brother to brother and it's man to man
C'est frère à frère et c'est homme à homme
And it's face to face and it′s hand to hand...
Et c'est face à face et c'est main à main...
We shadowdance the silent war within.
Nous dansons l'ombre de la guerre silencieuse à l'intérieur.
The shadowdance, it never ends...
La danse de l'ombre, elle ne finit jamais...
Never ends, never ends.
Elle ne finit jamais, elle ne finit jamais.
Shadowboxing the Apocalypse, yet again...
Boxant l'ombre de l'Apocalypse, encore une fois...
Yet again.
Encore une fois.
Shadowboxing the Apocalypse,
Boxant l'ombre de l'Apocalypse,
And wandering the land
Et errant sur la terre
