Lyrics and translation Nina Simone - If He Changed My Name (Live at the Village Gate, New York in April 1961)

If He Changed My Name (Live at the Village Gate, New York in April 1961)

S'il changeait mon nom (Live au Village Gate, New York en avril 1961)

Macgimsey

I told Jesus it would be alright if He changed my name

J'ai dit à Jésus que ce serait bien s'il changeait mon nom

I told Jesus it would be alright if He changed my name

J'ai dit à Jésus que ce serait bien s'il changeait mon nom

I told Jesus it would be alright if He changed my name

J'ai dit à Jésus que ce serait bien s'il changeait mon nom

And He told me that I would go hungry if He changed my name

Et il m'a dit que j'aurais faim s'il changeait mon nom

And He told me that I would go hungry if He changed my name

Et il m'a dit que j'aurais faim s'il changeait mon nom

And He told me that I would go hungry if He changed my name

Et il m'a dit que j'aurais faim s'il changeait mon nom

But I told Jesus it would be alright if He changed my name

Mais j'ai dit à Jésus que ce serait bien s'il changeait mon nom

I told Jesus it would be alright if He changed my name

J'ai dit à Jésus que ce serait bien s'il changeait mon nom

So I told Him it would be alright and the world would hate me

Alors je lui ai dit que ce serait bien, et le monde me haïrait

That I would go hungry if He changed my name

Que j'aurais faim s'il changeait mon nom
