Birthday Carol - Todd Rundgrentranslation in French




Birthday Carol
Chanson d'anniversaire
I was born this very morning
Je suis ce matin même
And my brother he was also born,
Et mon frère est aussi,
In our first nine months we learned to speak
Dans nos neuf premiers mois, nous avons appris à parler
And we have been listening since early morn.
Et nous écoutons depuis le petit matin.
I love no one but my brother
Je n'aime personne d'autre que mon frère
Who spent those months with me
Qui a passé ces mois avec moi
I hate no one and no other has so far hated me
Je ne hais personne et personne ne m'a jamais haï jusqu'à présent
But it isn't yet the afternoon,
Mais ce n'est pas encore l'après-midi,
And things are still to be,
Et il y a encore des choses à faire,
And when evening comes we all will see.
Et quand le soir viendra, nous verrons tous.
I am not very old and I won't live long.
Je ne suis pas très vieux et je ne vivrai pas longtemps.
I was born this very morning singing this here song
Je suis ce matin même en chantant cette chanson
Now I feel the worst for older people
Maintenant, j'éprouve le plus de pitié pour les personnes âgées
Winding out their friendless hours alone
Qui passent leurs heures sans amis, seuls
Seeing lives like plays at final curtain
Voyant des vies comme des pièces de théâtre au rideau final
Looking out to find everyone has gone home.
Regardant autour d'eux pour trouver que tout le monde est rentré chez soi.
Is there something I can pray to?
Y a-t-il quelque chose à quoi je peux prier?
Some offering I can send?
Une offrande que je peux envoyer?
Or some ear that I can play to, to help him find a friend?
Ou une oreille à qui je peux jouer pour l'aider à trouver un ami?
And maybe then redeem myself to keep me from that end
Et peut-être me racheter moi-même pour m'empêcher de cette fin
For the evening comes and who knows when.
Car le soir arrive et qui sait quand.
Oh, my brother, where is our mother?
Oh, mon frère, est notre mère?
Is there no other to live together,
N'y a-t-il personne d'autre avec qui vivre,
To be our lover?
Pour être notre amant?
