Lyrics and translation The Pogues - Navigator (Live In Sweden)




Navigator (Live In Sweden)
Navigator (Live In Sweden)
The canals and the bridges, the embankments and cuts,
Les canaux et les ponts, les digues et les voies navigables,
They blasted and dug with their sweat and their guts
Ils ont explosé et creusé avec leur sueur et leurs tripes
They never drank water but whiskey by pints
Ils n'ont jamais bu d'eau mais du whisky en pintes
And the shanty towns rang with their songs and their fights.
Et les bidonvilles ont résonné de leurs chansons et de leurs combats.
Navigator, Navigator rise up and be strong
Navigatrice, Navigatrice lève-toi et sois forte
The morning is here and there′s work to be done.
Le matin est et il y a du travail à faire.
Take your pick and your shovel and the bold dynamite
Prends ta pioche et ta pelle et la dynamite audacieuse
For to shift a few tons of this earthly delight
Pour déplacer quelques tonnes de ce délice terrestre
Yes to shift a few tons of this earthly delight.
Oui, pour déplacer quelques tonnes de ce délice terrestre.
They died in their hundreds with no sign to mark where
Ils sont morts par centaines sans aucun signe pour marquer l'endroit
Save the brass in the pocket of the entrepreneur.
Sauf le laiton dans la poche de l'entrepreneur.
By landslide and rockblast they got buried so deep
Par des glissements de terrain et des explosions de roches, ils ont été enterrés si profondément
That in death if not life they'll have peace while they sleep.
Que dans la mort, sinon dans la vie, ils auront la paix pendant leur sommeil.
Navigator, Navigator rise up and be strong
Navigatrice, Navigatrice lève-toi et sois forte
The morning is here and there′s work to be done.
Le matin est et il y a du travail à faire.
Take your pick and your shovel and the bold dynamite
Prends ta pioche et ta pelle et la dynamite audacieuse
For to shift a few tons of this earthly delight
Pour déplacer quelques tonnes de ce délice terrestre
Yes to shift a few tons of this earthly delight.
Oui, pour déplacer quelques tonnes de ce délice terrestre.
Their mark on this land is still seen and still laid
Leur marque sur cette terre est toujours visible et encore posée
The way for a commerce where vast fortunes were made
La voie pour un commerce de vastes fortunes ont été faites
The supply of an Empire where the sun never set
L'approvisionnement d'un empire le soleil ne se couche jamais
Which is now deep in darkness, but the railway's there yet.
Qui est maintenant plongé dans l'obscurité, mais le chemin de fer est toujours là.
Navigator, Navigator rise up and be strong
Navigatrice, Navigatrice lève-toi et sois forte
The morning is here and there's work to be done.
Le matin est et il y a du travail à faire.
Take your pick and your shovel and the bold dynamite
Prends ta pioche et ta pelle et la dynamite audacieuse
For to shift a few tons of this earthly delight
Pour déplacer quelques tonnes de ce délice terrestre
Yes to shift a few tons of this earthly delight.
Oui, pour déplacer quelques tonnes de ce délice terrestre.
