Kay Starr - I'm Waiting for the Ships That Never Come In - translation of the lyrics into French

Lyrics and translation Kay Starr - I'm Waiting for the Ships That Never Come In




I'm Waiting for the Ships That Never Come In
J'attends les navires qui ne reviennent jamais
I′m waiting for ships that never come in
J'attends les navires qui ne reviennent jamais
I wonder where they can be
Je me demande ils peuvent bien être
Life is only a game of poker
La vie n'est qu'un jeu de poker
And "happiness" is the pot
Et "le bonheur" est le pot
Fate deals you five cards in the cradle
Le destin vous distribue cinq cartes dans le berceau
And you play, whether you like it or not
Et vous jouez, que vous le vouliez ou non
Some get a pat hand to start with
Certains ont une main de départ facile
And the game doesn't seem on the square
Et le jeu ne semble pas juste
When you look at your hand and discover
Quand vous regardez votre main et découvrez
You were born without even a pair
Que vous êtes sans même une paire
But there′s no use in kicking or squawking
Mais il est inutile de se plaindre ou de s'agiter
Just pick up your cards and begin
Ramasse simplement tes cartes et commence
To figure and plan and puzzle
À réfléchir, à planifier et à chercher des solutions
While Fate looks on with a grin
Tandis que le destin observe avec un sourire narquois
Some take a chance at bluffing
Certains tentent leur chance en bluffant
And stake everything they've got
Et misent tout ce qu'ils ont
On a dinky little four-flush
Sur un petit quatre de suite
And, sometimes, it wins the pot
Et parfois, ils remportent le pot
Others will break up openers
D'autres vont casser leurs cartes de départ
To draw for a middle straight
Pour tirer une suite à mi-chemin
They know what a chance they're taking
Ils savent quel risque ils prennent
And they learn their mistake too late
Et ils apprennent leur erreur trop tard
Some can′t help playing crooked
Certains ne peuvent s'empêcher de tricher
Against all good advice
Contre tous les bons conseils
But they seldom get away with it
Mais ils s'en tirent rarement
And in the end, they′ll pay the price
Et à la fin, ils payeront le prix
The most of us play straight poker
La plupart d'entre nous jouent au poker honnête
But I tell you, boys, it's hard
Mais je te le dis, mon chéri, c'est dur
When you′re there with both ends open
Quand tu es avec les deux bouts ouverts
And you can't draw the winning card
Et que tu ne peux pas tirer la carte gagnante
Now I′ve always been a loser
Maintenant, j'ai toujours été une perdante
It seems that I never can win
Il semble que je ne puisse jamais gagner
And I'm just a dreamer who′s
Et je ne suis qu'une rêveuse qui est
Waiting for ships that never come in
En train d'attendre les navires qui ne reviennent jamais
I wonder where they can be
Je me demande ils peuvent bien être
