Lyrics and translation The Pogues - Lorca's Novena
Ignacio
lay
dying
in
the
sand
Ignacio
mourait
dans
le
sable
A
single
red
rose
clutched
in
a
dying
hand
Une
seule
rose
rouge
serrée
dans
une
main
mourante
The
women
wept
to
see
their
hero
die
Les
femmes
pleuraient
de
voir
leur
héros
mourir
And
the
big
black
birds
gathered
in
the
sky
Et
les
grands
oiseaux
noirs
se
sont
rassemblés
dans
le
ciel
Mother
of
all
our
joys
Mère
de
toutes
nos
joies
Mother
of
all
our
sorrows
Mère
de
toutes
nos
peines
Intercede
with
him
tonight
Intercède
auprès
de
lui
ce
soir
For
all
of
our
tomorrows
Pour
tous
nos
lendemains
The
years
went
by
and
then
the
killers
came
Les
années
ont
passé
puis
les
tueurs
sont
arrivés
And
took
the
men
and
marched
them
up
the
hill
of
pain
Et
ont
emmené
les
hommes
et
les
ont
fait
monter
la
colline
de
la
douleur
And
Lorca,
the
faggot
poet
they
left
till
last
Et
Lorca,
le
poète
pédé,
ils
l’ont
laissé
pour
la
fin
Blew
his
brains
out
with
a
pistol
up
his
arse
S’est
tiré
une
balle
dans
le
cul
Mother
of
all
our
joys
Mère
de
toutes
nos
joies
Mother
of
all
our
sorrows
Mère
de

Intercede
with
him
tonight
Intercède
auprès
de
lui
ce
soir
For

Pour
tous
nos
lendemains
The
killers
came
to
mutilate
the
dead
Les
tueurs
sont
venus
pour
mutiler
les
morts
But
ran
away
in
terror
to
search
the
town
instead
Mais
ils
se
sont
enfuis
dans
la
terreur
pour
fouiller
la
ville
à
la
place
But
Lorca′s
corpse,
as
he
had
prophesied,
just
walked
away
Mais
le
corps
de
Lorca,
comme
il
l’avait
prophétisé,
s’est
simplement
enfui
And
the
only
sound
was
the
women
in
the
chapel
praying
Et
le
seul
son
était
les
femmes
dans
la
chapelle
qui
priaient
Mother
of
all
our
joys
Mère
de
toutes
nos
joies
Mother
of
all
our
sorrows
Mère
de
toutes
nos
peines
Intercede
with
him
tonight
Intercède
auprès
de
lui
ce
soir
For
all
of
our
tomorrows
Pour
tous
nos
lendemains
