Roch Voisine - If I Were A Carpenter - translation of the lyrics into French

Lyrics and translation Roch Voisine - If I Were A Carpenter




If I Were A Carpenter
Si j'étais un charpentier
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
Si j'étais un charpentier et que tu sois une dame
Would you marry me anyway, would you have my baby?
M'épouserais-tu quand même, aurais-tu mon bébé ?
If a tinker were my trade, would you still find me
Si mon métier était de raccommoder, me trouverais-tu encore
Carrying the pots I made following behind me?
Portant les pots que j'ai faits, me suivant ?
Save my love through loneliness, save my love through sorrow.
Sauve mon amour de la solitude, sauve mon amour du chagrin.
I′ve given you my onliness, give me your tomorrow.
Je t'ai donné mon unique amour, donne-moi ton demain.
If I worked my hands in wood, would you still love me?
Si je travaillais le bois de mes mains, m'aimerais-tu toujours ?
Answer me, baby, yes, I would, I'd put you above me.
Réponds-moi, chérie, oui, je le ferais, je te placerais au-dessus de moi.
If I were a miller, at a mill wheel grinding
Si j'étais un meunier, à la meule qui tourne
Would you miss your coloured box and those soft shoes shining?
Manquerait-il à ton cœur la boîte colorée et ces souliers doux qui brillent ?
Save my love through loneliness, save my love through sorrow.
Sauve mon amour de la solitude, sauve mon amour du chagrin.
I′ve given you my onliness, give me your tomorrow.
Je t'ai donné mon unique amour, donne-moi ton demain.
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
Si j'étais un charpentier et que tu sois une dame
Would you marry me anyway, would you have my baby?
M'épouserais-tu quand même, aurais-tu mon bébé ?
Save my love through loneliness, save my love through sorrow.
Sauve mon amour de la solitude, sauve mon amour du chagrin.
I've given you my onliness, give me your tomorrow.
Je t'ai donné mon unique amour, donne-moi ton demain.
Save my love through loneliness, save my love through sorrow.
Sauve mon amour de la solitude, sauve mon amour du chagrin.
I've given you my onliness, give me your tomorrow.
Je t'ai donné mon unique amour, donne-moi ton demain.
Give me your tomorrow.
Donne-moi ton demain.
