Lyrics and translation Jethro Tull - Minstrel in the Gallery (Remastered)




Minstrel in the Gallery (Remastered)
Le ménestrel dans la galerie (Remasterisé)
The minstrel in the gallery
Le ménestrel dans la galerie
Looked down upon the smiling faces.
Regardait les visages souriants.
He met the gazes observed the spaces
Il rencontrait les regards, observait les espaces
Between the old men's cackle.
Entre les rires des vieux.
He brewed a song of love and hatred,
Il composait une chanson d'amour et de haine,
Oblique suggestions and he waited.
Des suggestions obliques, et il attendait.
He polarized the pumpkin-eaters,
Il polarisait les mangeurs de citrouilles,
Static-humming panel-beaters,
Les batteurs de panneaux qui ronronnent,
Freshly day-glow'd factory cheaters
Les tricheurs d'usine fraîchement fluo
(Salaried and collar-scrubbing.)
(Salariés et frotteurs de cols.)
He titillated men-of-action
Il titillait les hommes d'action
Belly warming, hands still rubbing
Chauffant le ventre, les mains frottant toujours
On the parts they never mention.
Sur les parties qu'ils ne mentionnent jamais.
He pacified the nappy-suffering, infant-bleating,
Il pacifiait les souffrants de couches, les bêlements d'enfants,
One-line jokers, TV documentary makers
Les farceurs à une ligne, les réalisateurs de documentaires télévisés
(Overfed and undertakers.)
(Sur-nourris et entrepreneurs de pompes funèbres.)
Sunday paper backgammon players
Les joueurs de backgammon du dimanche
Family-scarred and women-haters.
Marqués par la famille et les femmes-haineuses.
Then he called the band down to the stage
Puis il a appelé le groupe sur scène
And he looked at all the friends he'd made.
Et il a regardé tous les amis qu'il s'était faits.
The minstrel in the gallery
Le ménestrel dans la galerie
Looked down upon the smiling faces.
Regardait les visages souriants.
He met the gazes observed the spaces
Il rencontrait les regards, observait les espaces
In between the old men's cackle.
Entre les rires des vieux.
He brewed a song of love and hatred,
Il composait une chanson d'amour et de haine,
Oblique suggestions and he waited.
Des suggestions obliques, et il attendait.
He polarized the pumpkin-eaters,
Il polarisait les mangeurs de citrouilles,
Static-humming panel-beaters,
Les batteurs de panneaux qui ronronnent,
The minstrel in the gallery
Le ménestrel dans la galerie
Looked down on the rabbit-run.
Regardait la course au lapin.
And threw away his looking-glass -
Et jetait son miroir -
Saw his face in everyone.
Voyait son visage en chacun.
He titillated men-of-action
Il titillait les hommes d'action
Belly warming, hands still rubbing
Chauffant le ventre, les mains frottant toujours
On the parts they never mention.
Sur les parties qu'ils ne mentionnent jamais.
(Salaried and collar-scrubbing.)
(Salariés et frotteurs de cols.)

Le ménestrel dans la galerie
