Ruby Murray - MacNamara's Band (Live Version) - translation of the lyrics into French




MacNamara's Band (Live Version)
La Musique de MacNamara (Version live)
My name is McNamara, I′m the Leader of the Band,
Mon nom est McNamara, je suis le chef de l'orchestre,
And tho' we′re small in number we're the best in all the land.
Et bien que nous soyons peu nombreux, nous sommes les meilleurs de tout le pays.
Oh! I am the Conductor, and we often have to play
Oh! Je suis le chef d'orchestre, et nous devons souvent jouer
With all the best musicianers you hear about to-day.
Avec tous les meilleurs musiciens que vous entendez aujourd'hui.
(Chorus)When the drums go bang, the cymbals clang, the horns will blaze away, MacCarthy puffs the ould bassoon while Doyle the pipes will play; Oh! Hennessy Tennessy tootles the flute, my word 'tis something grand, Oh! a credit to Ould Ireland, boys, is McNamara′s Band
(Refrain)Quand les tambours résonnent, les cymbales brillent, les trompes jaillissent, MacCarthy souffle sur le vieux basson tandis que Doyle joue des cornemuses ; Oh ! Hennessy Tennessy joue de la flûte, c'est vraiment grandiose, Oh ! c'est un honneur pour l'Irlande, mon cher, la musique de MacNamara
We play at wakes and weddings, and at every county ball,
Nous jouons aux funérailles et aux mariages, et à tous les bals de comté,
And at any great man′s funeral we play the "Dead March in Saul,"
Et aux funérailles de tout grand homme, nous jouons la "Marche funèbre de Saul",
When the Prince of Wales to Ireland came, he shook me by the hand,
Quand le prince de Galles est venu en Irlande, il m'a serré la main,
And said he'd never heard the like of "McNamara′s Band."
Et a dit qu'il n'avait jamais entendu la "Musique de MacNamara" comme ça.
