Lyrics and translation Sade - Immigrant




Immigrant
Immigrant
Coming from where he did
Vient d'où il vient
He was turned away from
Il a été refoulé de
Every door like Joseph
Chaque porte comme Joseph
To even the toughest among us
Même pour les plus durs d'entre nous
That would be too much
Ce serait trop
He didn't know what it was to be black
Il ne savait pas ce que c'était que d'être noir
'Til they gave him his change
Jusqu'à ce qu'ils lui donnent sa monnaie
But didn't want to touch his hand
Mais ne voulaient pas toucher sa main
To even the toughest among us
Même pour les plus durs d'entre nous
That would be too much
Ce serait trop
Isn't it just enough
N'est-ce pas assez
How hard it is to live
Comme il est difficile de vivre
Isn't it hard enough
N'est-ce pas assez difficile
Just to make it through a day
Juste pour passer une journée
The secret of their fear
Le secret de leur peur
And their suspicion
Et leurs soupçons
Standing there looking like an angel
Debout là, ressemblant à un ange
In his brown shoes, his short suit, his white shirt
Dans ses chaussures marron, son costume court, sa chemise blanche
And his cuffs a little frayed
Et ses poignets un peu effilochés
Coming from where he did
Vient d'où il vient
He was such a dignified child
Il était un enfant si digne
To even the toughest among us
Même pour les plus durs d'entre nous
Don't you know, that would be too much
Tu ne sais pas, ce serait trop
Isn't it just enough
N'est-ce pas assez
How hard it is to live
Comme il est difficile de vivre
Isn't it hard enough
N'est-ce pas assez difficile
Just to make it through a day
Juste pour passer une journée
Coming from where he did
Vient d'où il vient
He was turned away from
Il a été refoulé de
Every door like joseph
Chaque porte comme Joseph
To even the toughest among us
Même pour les plus durs d'entre nous
Don't you know, that would be too much
Tu ne sais pas, ce serait trop
He didn't know what it was to be black
Il ne savait pas ce que c'était que d'être noir
'Til they gave him his change but didn't want to touch his hand
Jusqu'à ce qu'ils lui donnent sa monnaie mais ne voulaient pas toucher sa main
To even the toughest among us
Même pour les plus durs d'entre nous
That would be too much
Ce serait trop
