Lyrics and translation Luke Kelly - The Auld Triangle




The Auld Triangle
Le Vieux Triangle
A hungry feeling came o'er me stealing
Une faim me rongeait l'âme
And the mice were squealing in my prison cell
Et les souris piaulaient dans ma cellule
And the old triangle went jingle jangle
Et le vieux triangle tintinnabula
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
Le long des rives du Royal Canal
To begin the morning a screw was bawling
Au matin, un garde criait
'Get up you bowsie and clean up your cell'
'Lève-toi, fainéant, et nettoie ta cellule'
And the old triangle went jingle jangle
Et le vieux triangle tintinnabula
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
Le long des rives du Royal Canal
On a fine spring evening the lag lay dreaming
Un soir de printemps, le prisonnier rêvait
The seagulls wheeling high over the wall
Les mouettes tournoyaient haut au-dessus du mur
And the old triangle went jingle jangle
Et le vieux triangle tintinnabula
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
Le long des rives du Royal Canal
The lags were sleeping, Humpy Gussy was creeping
Les prisonniers dormaient, Humpy Gussy se faufilait
As I lay there weeping for my girl Sal
Alors que j'étais là, pleurant pour ma Sal
And the old triangle went jingle jangle
Et le vieux triangle tintinnabula
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
Le long des rives du Royal Canal
The wind was rising and the day declining
Le vent se levait et le jour déclinait
As I lay pining in my prison cell
Alors que j'étais là, languissant dans ma cellule
And the old triangle went jingle jangle
Et le vieux triangle tintinnabula
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
Le long des rives du Royal Canal
In the female prison there are seventy five women
Dans la prison des femmes, il y a soixante-quinze femmes
'Tis among them I wish I did dwell
C'est parmi elles que j'aimerais bien habiter
And the old triangle went jingle jangle
Et le vieux triangle tintinnabula
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
Le long des rives du Royal Canal
The day was dying and the wind was sighing
Le jour mourrait et le vent soupirait
As I lay crying in my prison cell
Alors que j'étais là, pleurant dans ma cellule
And the old triangle went jingle jangle
Et le vieux triangle tintinnabula
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
Le long des rives du Royal Canal
