Lyrics and translation The Pogues - The Auld Triangle - BBC John Peel Show April 10th 1984
A
hungry
feeling
Une
faim
terrible
Came
o'er
me
stealing
S'est
emparée
de
moi
And
the
mice
were
squealing
Et
les
souris
sifflaient
In
my
prison
cell
Dans
ma
cellule
de
prison
To
begin
the
morning
Pour
commencer
la
matinée
The
warden
bawling
Le
gardien
criait
Get
up
out
of
bed,
boy!
Lève-toi
du
lit,
mon
garçon
!
And
Clean
up
your
cell!
Et
nettoie
ta
cellule
!
And
the
auld
triangle
went
jingle-jangle
Et
le
vieux
triangle
sonnait
jingle-jangle
All
along
the
banks
of
the
Royal
Canal
Tout
le
long
des
berges
du
canal
Royal
On
a
fine
Spring
evening
Par
une
belle
soirée
de

The
loike
lay
dreaming
J'étais
allongé,
rêveur
And
the
sea-gulls
squealing
Et
les
mouettes
criaient
High
above
the
wall
Au-dessus
du
mur
Oh!
the
day
was
dying
Oh
! la
journée
mourrait
And
the
wind
was
sighing
Et
le
vent
soupirait
As
I
lay
there
crying
Alors
que
j'étais
là,
pleurant
In
my
prison
cell
Dans
ma
cellule
de
prison
And
the
auld
triangle
went
jingle-jangle
Et

vieux
triangle
sonnait
jingle-jangle
All
along
the

of
the
Royal
Canal
Tout
le
long
des
berges

Royal
Oh!
the
screw
was
peeping
Oh
! le
gardien
regardait
And
the
loike
was
sleeping
Et
j'étais
endormi
As
he
lay
there
weeping
Alors
que
j'étais
là,
pleurant
For
his
poor
gal
Pour
ma
pauvre
chérie
And
the
auld
triangle
went
jingle-jangle
Et
le
vieux
triangle
sonnait
jingle-jangle
All
along
the
banks
of
the
Royal
Canal
Tout
le
long
des

Royal
In
the
female
prison
Dans
la
prison
pour
femmes
There
are
seventy
women
Il
y
a
soixante-dix
femmes
And
I
wish
to
god
it
was
with
them
Et
j'aimerais
à
Dieu
que
ce
soit
avec
elles
That
I
did
dwell
Que
j'habite
And
