Lyrics and translation Miriam Makeba - Willow Song (From "Othello")




Willow Song (From "Othello")
Chanson du Saule (D'après "Othello")
The poor soul sat sighing
La pauvre âme s'est assise en soupirant
By a sycamore tree
Près d'un sycomore
Sing willow, willow, willow
Chante saule, saule, saule
Her hand on her bosom
Sa main sur sa poitrine
Her head on her knee
Sa tête sur ses genoux
Sing willow, willow, willow, willow
Chante saule, saule, saule, saule
Sing willow, willow, willow, willow
Chante saule, saule, saule, saule
My garland shall be
Ma couronne sera
Sing all a green willow
Chante tout un saule vert
Willow, willow, willow
Saule, saule, saule
Sing all a green willow
Chante tout un saule vert
My garland shall be
Ma couronne sera
The fresh streams ran by her
Les ruisseaux frais coulaient près d'elle
And murmured her moans
Et murmuraient ses gémissements
Sing willow, willow, willow
Chante saule, saule, saule
Her fresh tears fell from her
Ses larmes fraîches ont coulé d'elle
And softened the stones
Et ont adouci les pierres
Sing willow, willow, willow, willow
Chante saule, saule, saule, saule
Sing willow, willow, willow, willow
Chante saule, saule, saule, saule
My garland shall be
Ma couronne sera
Sing all a green willow
Chante tout un saule vert
Willow, willow, willow
Saule, saule, saule
Sing all a green willow
Chante tout un saule vert
My garland shall be
Ma couronne sera
Shall be
Sera
