Lyrics and translation The Pogues - The Irish Rover (Live At the Brixton Academy 2001)




The Irish Rover (Live At the Brixton Academy 2001)
Le Rover irlandais (Live At the Brixton Academy 2001)
On the Fourth of July, 1806
Le 4 juillet 1806
We set sail from the sweet cove of Cork
Nous avons quitté la douce baie de Cork
We were sailing away with a cargo of bricks
Nous partions avec une cargaison de briques
For the Grand City Hall in New York
Pour le Grand Hôtel de Ville de New York
′Twas a wonderful craft
C'était un magnifique bateau
She was rigged fore and aft
Il était gréé avant et arrière
And oh, how the wild wind drove her
Et oh, comme le vent sauvage l'a poussé
She stood several blasts
Il a résisté à plusieurs bourrasques
She had twenty seven masts
Il avait vingt-sept mâts
And they called her The Irish Rover
Et ils l'appelaient Le Rover irlandais
We had one million bags of the best Sligo rags
Nous avions un million de sacs des meilleurs chiffons de Sligo
We had two million barrels of stone
Nous avions deux millions de barils de pierre
We had three million sides of old blind horses hides
Nous avions trois millions de peaux de vieux chevaux aveugles
We had four million barrels of bones
Nous avions quatre millions de barils d'os
We had five million hogs
Nous avions cinq millions de cochons
And six million dogs
Et six millions de chiens
Seven million barrels of porter
Sept millions de barils de bière
We had eight million bails of old nanny-goats' tails
Nous avions huit millions de ballots de queues de vieilles chèvres
In the hold of the Irish Rover
Dans la cale du Rover irlandais
There was awl Mickey Coote
Il y avait Mickey Coote
Who played hard on his flute
Qui jouait fort de sa flûte
When the ladies lined up for a set
Quand les dames faisaient la queue pour un set
He was tootin′ with skill
Il jouait avec talent
For each sparkling quadrille
Pour chaque quadrille étincelante
Though the dancers were fluther'd and bet
Bien que les danseurs soient fouettés et parient
With his smart witty talk
Avec ses paroles spirituelles et intelligentes
He was cock of the walk
Il était le coq de la marche
And he rolled the dames under and over
Et il faisait rouler les dames sous et sur
They all knew at a glance
Elles savaient toutes en un coup d'œil
When he took up his stance
Quand il prenait sa position
That he sailed in The Irish Rover
Qu'il naviguait sur Le Rover irlandais
There was Barney McGee
Il y avait Barney McGee
From the banks of the Lee
Des rives de la Lee
There was Hogan from County Tyrone
Il y avait Hogan du comté de Tyrone
There was Johnny McGurk
Il y avait Johnny McGurk
Who was scared stiff of work
Qui avait peur du travail
And a man from Westmeath called Malone
Et un homme du Westmeath appelé Malone
There was Slugger O'Toole
Il y avait Slugger O'Toole
Who was drunk as a rule
Qui était ivre en règle générale
And Fighting Bill Treacy from Dover
Et Fighting Bill Treacy de Douvres
And your man, Mick MacCann
Et votre homme, Mick MacCann
From the banks of the Bann
Des rives du Bann
Was the skipper of the Irish Rover
Était le capitaine du Rover irlandais
We had sailed seven years
Nous avons navigué pendant sept ans
When the measles broke out
Quand la rougeole a éclaté
And the ship lost its way in the fog
Et le navire a perdu son chemin dans le brouillard
And that whale of a crew
Et cet équipage de baleine
Was reduced down to two
A été réduit à deux
Just myself and the Captain′s old dog
Juste moi et le vieux chien du capitaine
Then the ship struck a rock
Ensuite, le navire a heurté un rocher
Oh Lord! what a shock
Oh Seigneur ! Quel choc
The bulkhead was turned right over
La cloison a été retournée
Turned nine times around
Retourné neuf fois
And the poor old dog was drowned
Et le pauvre vieux chien s'est noyé
And the last of The Irish Rover
Et le dernier du Rover irlandais
