Lyrics and translation The Pogues - Nw3

It was 1962
C'était 1962
I was two years out of school
J'avais quitté l'école deux ans plus tôt
When I got on board a boat
Quand j'ai embarqué sur un bateau
That was bound for Liverpool
Qui était à destination de Liverpool
The day I went away
Le jour je suis parti
I remember it so well
Je me souviens si bien
Said goodbye to the North Wall
J'ai dit au revoir au North Wall
And bid a fond farewell
Et fait un dernier adieu
When I got down to the smoke
Quand j'ai débarqué dans la fumée
It was 1963
C'était 1963
I got a job doing meals on wheels
J'ai trouvé un travail à livrer des repas à domicile
Round NW3
Dans le NW3
I was terrorising grannies
Je terrorisais les mamies
For ten lousy bob a week
Pour dix misérables shillings par semaine
I was smashed and blacked
J'étais défoncé et noir
And drunk and yawning in NW3
Et saoul et bâillant dans le NW3
In the filth and piss they lived in
Dans la saleté et la pisse elles vivaient
They would sometimes hum an air
Parfois, elles fredonnaient un air
Or talk in tongues of madness
Ou parlaient dans des langues de folie
Keeping time upon a chair
En gardant le rythme sur une chaise
And for their wrists a numbered tab
Et pour leurs poignets, un onglet numéroté
In Westminster morgue
À la morgue de Westminster
On a cold hard slab
Sur une dalle froide et dure
When I was still a young man
Quand j'étais encore un jeune homme
In NW3
Dans le NW3
Now I′m spent of love and rage
Maintenant, je suis épuisé d'amour et de rage
And I'm going home again
Et je rentre chez moi
Never did nobody wrong
Je n'ai jamais fait de mal à personne
Never earned a decent wage
Je n'ai jamais gagné un salaire décent
So thanks for sweet fuck all
Alors merci pour ce putain de rien
Once more look at the North Wall
Encore une fois, regarde le North Wall
Say goodbye to all of that
Dis au revoir à tout ça
And bid a fond farewell
Et fais un dernier adieu
At the top of the Pentonville Road
Au sommet de Pentonville Road
I watched the sun setting
J'ai regardé le soleil se coucher
The town spread out before me
La ville s'étendait devant moi
Looked beautiful to me
Elle me semblait belle
Away from all the sighing
Loin de tous les soupirs
The suffering and the dying
De la souffrance et de la mort
I dreamed of the future
J'ai rêvé de l'avenir
Of the young and the free
Des jeunes et des libres
But the years they went by quickly
Mais les années sont passées rapidement
Now I swear I won′t return here
Maintenant, je jure que je ne reviendrai jamais ici
Where each day just bring me closer
chaque jour me rapproche
To the final misery
De la misère finale
My kids will never scrape shit round here
Mes enfants ne ramasseront jamais de la merde ici
I won't die crying in a pint of beer
Je ne mourrai pas en pleurant dans une pinte de bière
Or eat their stinking meals on wheels
Ou en mangeant leurs putains de repas à domicile
In NW3.
Dans le NW3.
