God Bless the Child - Harry Belafontetranslation in French




God Bless the Child
Que Dieu bénisse l'enfant
Them that's got shall get
Ceux qui ont auront plus
Them that's not shall lose
Ceux qui n'ont pas perdront
So the bible says and it still is news
C'est ce que dit la Bible et c'est toujours d'actualité
Mama may have papa may have
Maman peut avoir, papa peut avoir
But God bless the child
Mais que Dieu bénisse l'enfant
That's got his own, that's got his own
Qui a le sien, qui a le sien
Yes, the strong gets more
Oui, les forts obtiennent plus
While the weak ones fade
Tandis que les faibles s'effacent
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade
Les poches vides ne font jamais l'affaire
Mama may have, papa may have
Maman peut avoir, papa peut avoir
But God bless the child
Mais que Dieu bénisse l'enfant
That's got his own, that's got his own
Qui a le sien, qui a le sien
Money you've got lots of friends
Avec de l'argent, tu as beaucoup d'amis
Crowding 'round the door
Qui se pressent à ta porte
When you're gone
Quand tu es parti
And the spending ends
Et que les dépenses cessent
They don't come no more
Ils ne reviennent plus
Rich relations give
Les riches parents donnent
Crusts of bread and such
Des croûtes de pain et autres
You can help your self
Tu peux te servir
But don't take to much
Mais n'en prends pas trop
Mama may have, papa may have
Maman peut avoir, papa peut avoir
But God bless the child
Mais que Dieu bénisse l'enfant
Who's got his own, who's got his own
Qui a le sien, qui a le sien
Money you've got lots of friends
Avec de l'argent, tu as beaucoup d'amis
Crowding 'round the door
Qui se pressent à ta porte
When you're gone
Quand tu es parti
And the spending ends
Et que les dépenses cessent
They don't come no more
Ils ne reviennent plus
Rich relations give
Les riches parents donnent
Crusts of bread and such
Des croûtes de pain et autres
You can help your self
Tu peux te servir
But don't take to much
Mais n'en prends pas trop
Mama may have, papa may have
Maman peut avoir, papa peut avoir
But God bless the child
Mais que Dieu bénisse l'enfant
Who's got his own, who's got his own
Qui a le sien, qui a le sien
