Turn
back,
O
man
Retourne,
Ô
homme
Forswear
thy
foolish
ways
Rénonce
à
tes
voies
folles
Old
now
is
earth
La
Terre
est
vieille
maintenant
And
none
may
count
her
days
Et
nul
ne
peut
compter
ses
jours
Yet
thou,
her
child
Toi
pourtant,
son
enfant
Whose
head
is
crowned
with
flames
Dont
la
tête
est
couronnée
de
flammes
Still
will
not
hear
Ne
veux
toujours
pas
entendre
Thine
inner
God
proclaims
Ce
que
ton
Dieu
intérieur
proclame
Turn
back,
O
man
(is
your
seat
comfortable
sir?)
Retourne,
Ô
homme
(ton
siège
est-il
confortable,
mon
cher?)
Turn

O

Forswear
thy
foolish
ways
Rénonce
à
tes
voies

I'm
going
to

of
the
thee-AY-ter)
(À

je

au
début
du
th-É-âtre)
Earth

be
fair
La
Terre
pourrait
être
belle
And
all
men
glad
and
wise
Et
tous
les
hommes
joyeux
et
sages
Age
after
age
their
tragic
empires
rise
Âge
après
âge,
leurs
empires
tragiques
s'élèvent
Built
while
they
dream
Construits
pendant
qu'ils
rêvent
And
in
that
dreaming
weep
Et
dans
ce
rêve,
ils
pleurent
Would
man
but
wake
Si
l'homme
ne
se
réveillait
From
out
his
haunted
sleep
De
son
sommeil
hanté
Turn
back,
O
man...(i'll
say
it
again)
Retourne,
Ô
homme...(je
vais
le
redire)
Turn
back,
O
man...
(can
you
see
from
where
you're
sittin'?)
Retourne,
Ô
homme...
(tu
vois
bien
d'où
tu
es
assis?)
Turn
back,
O
man...
(hiya
big
boy)
Retourne,
Ô
homme...
(coucou,
grand
garçon)
Forswear
thy
foolish
ways
Rénonce
à
tes
voies
folles
Earth
shall
be
fair
La
Terre
sera
belle
And
all
her
people
one
Et
tous
ses
habitants
seront
un
Not
till
that
hour
Pas
avant
cette
heure
Shall
God's
whole
will
be
done
La
volonté
entière
de
Dieu

Now,
even

Maintenant,
même
maintenant
Once

Une
fois
