Lyrics and translation Joan Baez - I Pity the Poor Immigrant




I Pity the Poor Immigrant
J'ai pitié du pauvre immigrant
(Bob Dylan)
(Bob Dylan)
I pity the poor immigrant who wishes he would have stayed home
J'ai pitié du pauvre immigrant qui souhaitait être resté chez lui
Who uses all his power to do evil but in the end is always left so alone
Qui utilise tout son pouvoir pour faire le mal mais qui au final est toujours laissé si seul
That man whom with his fingers cheats and whom lies with every breath
Cet homme qui triche avec ses doigts et qui ment à chaque souffle
Who passionately hates his life and likewise fears his death
Qui hait passionnément sa vie et craint de même sa mort
I pity the poor immigrant whose strength is spent in vain
J'ai pitié du pauvre immigrant dont la force est dépensée en vain
Whose heaven is like ironsides whose tears are like rain
Dont le ciel est comme des flancs de fer dont les larmes sont comme la pluie
Who eats but is not satisfied who hears but does not see
Qui mange mais n'est pas satisfait qui entend mais ne voit pas
Who falls in love with wealth itself and turns his back on me
Qui tombe amoureux de la richesse elle-même et me tourne le dos
I pity the poor immigrant who tramples through the mud
J'ai pitié du pauvre immigrant qui piétine dans la boue
Who fills his mouth with laughing and who fills his town with blood
Qui remplit sa bouche de rires et qui remplit sa ville de sang
Whose visions in the final end must shatter like the glass
Dont les visions à la fin doivent se briser comme le verre
I pity the poor immigrant when his gladness comes to pass
J'ai pitié du pauvre immigrant quand son bonheur arrive
