Lyrics and translation The Dubliners - The Unquiet Grave
The

doth
blow
Le
vent
souffle
today
my
love
aujourd'hui,
mon
amour
A
few
small
drops
of
rain
Quelques
gouttes
de
pluie
Never
have
I
had
Jamais
je
n'ai
eu
but
one
true
love
qu'un
seul
amour
véritable
In
cold
clay
she
is
laid
Elle
repose
dans
l'argile
froide
I'll
do
as
much
Je
ferai
autant
for
my
true
love
pour
mon
amour
véritable
As
any
young
man
may
Que
n'importe
quel
jeune
homme
I'll
sit
and
mourn
Je
vais
m'asseoir
et
pleurer
all
on
her
grave
sur
sa
tombe
At
twelve
months
and
a
day
Pendant
douze
mois
et
un
jour
The
twelve
months
and
the
day
being
gone
Les
douze
mois
et
le
jour
étant
passés
A
voice
spoke
from
the
deep
Une
voix
a
parlé
des
profondeurs
Who
is
it
sits
Qui
est-ce
qui
s'assoit
all
on
my
grave
sur
ma
tombe
And
will
not
let
me
sleep
Et
ne
me
laisse
pas
dormir
?
'Tis
I,
'tis
I,
C'est
moi,
c'est
moi,
Thine
own
true
love
Ton
propre
amour
véritable
Who
sits
upon
your
grave
Qui
s'assoit
sur
ta
tombe
For
I
crave
one
kiss
Car
j'ai
envie
d'un
baiser
from
your
sweet
lips
de
tes
lèvres
sucrées
And
that
is
all
I
seek
Et
c'est
tout
ce
que
je
recherche
You
crave
one
kiss
Tu
as
envie
d'un
baiser
from

lips
de
mes
lèvres
froides
et
terreuses
But
my
breath
is
earthy
strong
Mais
mon
souffle
est
fort
et
terreux
Had
you
one
kiss
Si
tu
avais
un
baiser
from
my
clay
cold
lips
de
mes
lèvres
froides
et
terreuses
Your
time
would
not
be
long
Ton
temps
ne
serait
pas
long
My
time
be
long,
Que
mon
temps
soit
long,
my
time
be
short
que
mon
temps
soit
court
Tomorrow
or
today
Demain
ou
aujourd'hui
May
God
in
heaven
Que
Dieu
au
ciel
have
all
my
soul
ait
toute
mon
âme
But
I'll
kiss
your
lips
of
clay
Mais
je
vais
embrasser
tes
lèvres
d'argile
See
down
in
yonder
garden
green
Regarde
dans
ce
jardin
vert
Love
where
we
used
to
walk
Là
où
nous
aimions
nous
promener
The
sweetest
flower
La
fleur
la
plus
douce
that
ever
grew
qui
ait
jamais
poussé
Is
withered
to
the
stalk
Est
flétrie
jusqu'à
la
tige
The

withered
dry
my
love
La
tige
est
sèche,
mon
amour
So
will
our
hearts
decay
Ainsi,
nos
cœurs
vont
se
décomposer
So
make
yourself
Alors,
sois
contente
content
my
love
mon
amour
Till
death
calls
you
away
Jusqu'à
ce
que
la
mort
t'appelle
