Lyrics and translation Johnny Cash - Look Unto the East
The
teacher
of
truth
told
tales
of
trouble
times
that
would
begin
Le
maître
de
la
vérité
racontait
des
histoires
de
temps
troublés
qui
allaient
commencer
And
the
cynical
sewer
sowed
the
sorrowful
seeds
of
seven
sins
Et
le
caniveau
cynique
semait
les
graines
douloureuses
des
sept
péchés
The
people
placed
a
prize
upon
the
prince
of
perfect
peace
Le
peuple
accordait
un
prix
au
prince
de
la
paix
parfaite
And
the
one
who
wooed
the
world
was
wounded
Et
celui
qui
courtisait
le
monde
fut
blessé
Look
unto
the
east
Regarde
vers
l'est
The
morning
moved
in
mournfully
with
many
moments
smart
Le
matin
s'est
levé
tristement
avec
de
nombreux
moments
douloureux
My
brawny
beast
who
beat
the
beauty,
bound
and
bit
and
barred
Ma
bête
puissante
qui
battait
la
beauté,
liée,
mordante
et
barrée
They
laid
the
lash
upon
him
low,
his
lips
moved
not
the
least
Ils
lui
ont
mis
le
fouet
bas,
ses
lèvres
ne
se
sont
pas
remuées
le
moins
du
monde
See
him
come
from
where
he
did
go
now
Regarde-le
venir
d'où
il
est
allé
maintenant
Look
unto
the
east
Regarde
vers
l'est
The
devil
threw
his
darts
and
the
dearest
dove
came
dropping
down
Le
diable
a
lancé
ses
dards
et
la
colombe
la
plus
chère
est
tombée
But
the
spirit
slips
in
soft
and
sweetly,
unseen
with
no
sound
Mais
l'esprit
se
glisse
doucement
et
doucement,
invisible
sans
bruit
The
comforter,
the
counsellor
with
us
′til
time
is
ceased
Le
consolateur,
le
conseiller
avec
nous
jusqu'à
ce
que
le
temps
cesse
And
the
groom
will
return
for
his
bride
Et
l'époux
reviendra
pour
sa
fiancée
Look
unto
the
east
Regarde
vers
l'est
And
the
groom
will
return
for
his
bride
Et
l'époux
reviendra
pour
sa
fiancée
Look
unto
the
east
Regarde
vers
l'est
