Lyrics and translation The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem - The Minstrel Boy
The
Minstrel
Boy
to
the
war
is
gone
Le
Minstrel
Boy
est
parti
à
la
guerre
In
the
ranks
of
death
you
will
find
him;
Tu
le
trouveras
dans
les
rangs
de
la
mort
;
His
father's
sword
he
hath
girded
on,
Il
a
ceint
l'épée
de
son
père,
And
his
wild
harp
slung
behind
him;"
Et
sa
harpe
sauvage
est
accrochée
derrière
lui
;"
Land
of
Song!"
said
the
warrior
bard,
"Terre
de
Chant !",
dit
le
barde
guerrier,
"Tho'
all
the
world
betrays
thee,
"Bien
que
le
monde
entier
te
trahisse,
One
sword,
at
least,
thy
rights
shall
guard,
Au
moins
une
épée
te
défendra,
One
faithful
harp
shall
praise
thee!"
Une
harpe
fidèle
te
louera !"
The
Minstrel
fell!
But
the
foeman's
chain
Le
Minstrel
est
tombé !
Mais
la
chaîne
de
l'ennemi
Could
not
bring
that
proud
soul
under;
N'a
pas
pu
soumettre
cette
âme
fière ;
The
harp
he
lov'd
ne'er
spoke
again,
La
harpe
qu'il
aimait
ne
s'est
plus
jamais
exprimée,
For
he
tore
its
chords
asunder;
Car
il
en
a
déchiré
les
cordes ;
And
said
"No
chains
shall
sully
thee,
Et
il
a
dit
"Aucune
chaîne
ne
te
souillera,
Thou
soul
of
love
and
brav'ry!
Ô
âme
d'amour
et
de
bravoure !
Thy
songs
were
made
for
the
pure
and
free,
Tes
chansons
étaient
faites
pour
les
purs
et
les
libres,
They
shall
never
sound
in
slavery!"
Elles
ne
résonneront
jamais
dans
l'esclavage !"
