Lyrics and translation The Kingston Trio - Big Ship Glory
I
been
to
Jamaica.
I
been
to
the
South
land.
I've
been
down
the
river
of
no
return
many
times
before.
J'ai
été
en
Jamaïque.
J'ai
été
dans
le
Sud.
J'ai
descendu
la
rivière
sans
retour
plusieurs
fois.
Chorus:
Refrain :
Now,
won't
you
carry
me
home,
big
ship,
Glory,
carry
me
home?
Carry
me
home,
big
ship,
Glory,
carry
me
home.
Alors,
ne
veux-tu
pas
me
ramener
à
la
maison,
grand
navire
Gloire,
me
ramener
à
la
maison ?
Me
ramener
à
la
maison,
grand
navire
Gloire,
me
ramener
à
la
maison.
I
been
through
the
sunshine.
I
been
through
the
thunder.
I've
been
through
a
hurricane
bound
for
trouble
in
a
Florida
storm.
J'ai
traversé
le
soleil.
J'ai
traversé
le
tonnerre.
J'ai
traversé
un
ouragan
qui
se
dirigeait
vers
les
ennuis
lors
d'une
tempête
en
Floride.
(Chorus)
(Refrain)
Well,
I
don't
remember
when
it
started.
We
were
going
strong
and
then
we
parted
Eh
bien,
je
ne
me
souviens
pas
quand
ça
a
commencé.
Nous
allions
fort
et
puis
nous
nous
sommes
séparés.
Singing
every
song
I
ever
knew
since
I
was
ten.
Je
chantais
toutes
les
chansons
que
je
connaissais
depuis
que
j'avais
dix
ans.
Yes,
I
rode
a
main
sail
for
your
honor.
Even
went
to
jail
in
Tijuana
Oui,
j'ai
navigué
sur
une
grand-voile
pour
ton
honneur.
Je
suis
même
allé
en
prison
à
Tijuana.
If
I
had
to
live
my
life
all
over,
I'd
do
it
all
again.
Si
je
devais
revivre
ma
vie,
je
referais
tout.
'Cause
I've
been
through
some
good
times.
I've
been
through
some
troubles.
Parce
que
j'ai
traversé
de
bons
moments.
J'ai
traversé
des
difficultés.
I've
been
through
some
hard
times
that
had
me
wishin'
I
had
never
been
born.
J'ai
traversé
des
moments
difficiles
qui
m'ont
fait
souhaiter
ne
jamais
être
né.
(Chorus
twice
and
fade)
(Refrain
deux
fois
et
fondu)
