On Battleship Hill - PJ Harveytranslation in French




On Battleship Hill
Sur la colline du cuirassé
The scent of Thyme carried on the wind
Le parfum du thym emporté par le vent
Stings my face into remembering
Me pique le visage et me rappelle
Cruel nature has won again
La nature cruelle a encore gagné
Cruel nature has won again
La nature cruelle a encore gagné
On Battleship Hill's caved in trenches
Sur la colline du cuirassé, dans les tranchées effondrées
A hateful feeling still lingers
Un sentiment haineux persiste encore
Even now, 80 years later
Même aujourd'hui, 80 ans plus tard
Cruel nature
La nature cruelle
Cruel, cruel nature
La nature cruelle, cruelle
The land returns to how it has always been
La terre retrouve son état originel
Thyme carried on the wind
Le thym emporté par le vent
Jagged mountains, jutting out
Des montagnes dentelées, saillantes
Cracked like teeth in a rotten mouth
Fissurées comme des dents dans une bouche pourrie
On Battleship Hill I hear the wind
Sur la colline du cuirassé, j'entends le vent
Say "Cruel nature has won again"
Dire "La nature cruelle a encore gagné"
Cruel nature has won again
La nature cruelle a encore gagné
Cruel nature has won again
La nature cruelle a encore gagné
Cruel nature has won again
La nature cruelle a encore gagné
