Lyrics and translation Marillion - Sierra Leone (I) Chance in a Million

Sierra Leone (I) Chance in a Million

I found this object deep below the ground

J'ai trouvé cet objet bien en dessous du sol

Chance in a million under rubbish town

Une chance sur un million sous une ville de détritus

Where little barefoot children scratch around

Où de petits enfants pieds nus grattent le sol

Fishing for treasure in the broken glass

Pêchant des trésors dans le verre brisé

Dug around for years in darkness and in sweat

J'ai creusé pendant des années dans l'obscurité et la sueur

Finding nothing yet until today, until today

Ne trouvant rien jusqu'à aujourd'hui, jusqu'à aujourd'hui

A billion years of waiting for me to come along

Un milliard d'années d'attente pour que je vienne

Bigger than my hand, how can this be?

Plus gros que ma main, comment est-ce possible ?

Now I'm free

Maintenant je suis libre

But I won't sell this diamond

Mais je ne vendrai pas ce diamant

I won't sell this diamond

Je ne vendrai pas ce diamant
