He
was
my
brother
Il
était
mon
frère
Five
years
older
than
I
Cinq
ans
de
plus
que
moi
He

my
brother
Il
était
mon
frère
23
years
old,
the
day
he
died
23
ans,
le
jour
de
sa
mort
Freedom
rider
Freedom
rider
They
cursed
my
brother
to
his
face
Ils
ont
maudit
mon
frère
en
face
"Go
home
outsider
« Rentrez
chez
vous,
étranger
Mississippi's
gonna
be
your
burying
place"
Le
Mississippi
sera
ton
lieu
de
sépulture
»
He
was
singing
on
his
knees
Il
chantait
à
genoux
An
angry
mob
trailed
along
Une
foule
en
colère
le
traînait
They
shot
my
brother
dead
Ils
ont
tué
mon
frère
Because
he
hated
what
was
wrong
Parce
qu'il
haïssait
ce
qui
était
mal
He
was
my
brother
Il
était
mon
frère
Tears
can't
bring
him
back
to
me
Les
larmes
ne
peuvent
pas
le
ramener
à
moi
He,
he
was
my
brother
Il,
il
était
mon
frère
And
he
died
so
his
brothers
could
be
free
Et
il
est
mort
pour
que
ses
frères
soient
libres
Oh,
God,
he
died
so
his
brothers
could
be
free
Oh,
mon
Dieu,
il
est
mort
pour
que
ses
frères
soient
libres
