Lyrics and translation The Dubliners - Medley: Dublin / Nelson's Farewell




Medley: Dublin / Nelson's Farewell
Médley : Dublin / Adieu de Nelson
Oh, poor old Admiral Nelson is no longer in the air.
Oh, le pauvre amiral Nelson n'est plus dans les airs.
Toora loora loora loora loo!
Toora loora loora loora loo !
On the eighth day of March in Dublin City fair,
Le huitième jour de mars dans la ville de Dublin,
Toora loora loora loora loo!
Toora loora loora loora loo !
From his stand of stones and mortar
De son piédestal de pierre et de mortier
He fell crashing through the quarter,
Il est tombé en s'écrasant à travers le quartier,
Where once he stood so stiff and proud and rude.
il se tenait autrefois si raide, fier et grossier.
So let′s sing our celebration,
Alors chantons notre célébration,
It's a service to the nation.
C'est un service à la nation.
So poor old Admiral Nelson, toora loo!
Alors pauvre amiral Nelson, toora loo !
Oh, fifty pounds of gelignite it sped him on his way,
Oh, cinquante livres de gélignite l'ont expédié sur son chemin,
Toora loora loora loora loo!
Toora loora loora loora loo !
And the lad that laid the charge, we′re in debt to him today.
Et le garçon qui a posé la charge, nous sommes redevables à lui aujourd'hui.
Toora loora loora loora loo!
Toora loora loora loora loo !
In Trafalgar Square it might be fair
Sur la place Trafalgar, ce serait peut-être juste
To leave old Nelson standing there
De laisser le vieux Nelson debout
But no one tells the Irish what they'll view.
Mais personne ne dit aux Irlandais ce qu'ils verront.
Now the Dublin Corporation
Maintenant, la Corporation de Dublin
Can stop deliberation
Peut arrêter la délibération
For the boys of Ireland showed them what to do!
Car les garçons d'Irlande leur ont montré quoi faire !
For a hundred and fifty-seven years it stood up there in state
Pendant cent cinquante-sept ans, il s'est tenu en grande pompe
Toora loora loora loora loo!
Toora loora loora loora loo !
To mark old Nelson's victory o′er the French and Spanish fleet,
Pour marquer la victoire du vieux Nelson sur la flotte française et espagnole,
Toora loora loora loora loo!
Toora loora loora loora loo !
But one-thirty in the morning,
Mais à une heure trente du matin,
Without a bit of warning,
Sans aucun avertissement,
Old Nelson took a powder and he blew!
Le vieux Nelson a pris de la poudre et il a explosé !
Now at last the Irish nation
Maintenant, enfin, la nation irlandaise
Has Parnell in higher station
A Parnell en plus haute position
Than poor old Admiral Nelson, toora loo!
Que le pauvre amiral Nelson, toora loo !
Oh the Russians and the Yanks, with lunar probes they play,
Oh, les Russes et les Yankees, avec des sondes lunaires, ils jouent,
Toora loora loora loora loo!
Toora loora loora loora loo !
And I hear the French are trying hard to make up lost headway,
Et j'entends dire que les Français essaient dur de rattraper leur retard,
Toora loora loora loora loo!
Toora loora loora loora loo !
But now the Irish join the race,
Mais maintenant, les Irlandais rejoignent la course,
We have an astronaut in space,
Nous avons un astronaute dans l'espace,
Ireland, boys, is now a world power too!
L'Irlande, les gars, est maintenant une puissance mondiale aussi !
So let′s sing our celebration,
Alors chantons notre célébration,
It's a service to the nation.
C'est un service à la nation.
So poor old Admiral Nelson, toora loo!
Alors pauvre amiral Nelson, toora loo !
