Lyrics and translation Woody Guthrie - Ludlow Massacre (Remastered)




Ludlow Massacre (Remastered)
Le massacre de Ludlow (remasterisé)
It was early springtime that the strike was on
C'était au début du printemps que la grève a commencé
They moved us miners out of doors
Ils nous ont fait sortir des mineurs
Out from the houses that the company owned
De nos maisons que la compagnie possédait
We moved into tents at old Ludlow
Nous avons emménagé dans des tentes à Ludlow
I was worried bad about my children
J'étais très inquiet pour mes enfants
Soldiers guarding the railroad bridge
Des soldats gardaient le pont ferroviaire
Every once in a while a bullet would fly
De temps en temps une balle sifflait
Kick up gravel under my feet
Soulevant des graviers sous mes pieds
We were so afraid they would kill our children
Nous avions tellement peur qu'ils tuent nos enfants
We dug us a cave that was seven foot deep
Nous avons creusé une grotte qui faisait sept pieds de profondeur
Carried our young ones and a pregnant woman
Nous avons transporté nos jeunes enfants et une femme enceinte
Down inside the cave to sleep
Dans la grotte pour dormir
That very night you soldier waited
Cette nuit-là, les soldats ont attendu
Until us miners were asleep
Jusqu'à ce que les mineurs soient endormis
You snuck around our little tent town
Ils se sont faufilés autour de notre petite ville de tentes
Soaked our tents with your kerosene
Ils ont imbibé nos tentes de kérosène
You struck a match and the blaze it started
Ils ont allumé une allumette et les flammes ont commencé
You pulled the triggers of your gatling guns
Ils ont tiré sur leurs mitrailleuses
I made a run for the children but the fire wall stopped me
J'ai couru vers les enfants, mais le mur de feu m'a arrêté
Thirteen children died from your guns
Treize enfants sont morts sous vos balles
I carried my blanket to a wire fence corner
J'ai porté ma couverture au coin d'une clôture de fil de fer
Watched the fire till the blaze died down
J'ai regardé le feu jusqu'à ce que les flammes s'éteignent
I helped some people grab their belongings
J'ai aidé des gens à récupérer leurs affaires
While your bullets killed us all around
Pendant que vos balles nous tuaient tout autour
I will never forget the looks on the faces
Je n'oublierai jamais le regard sur les visages
Of the men and women that awful day
Des hommes et des femmes ce jour-là
When we stood around to preach their funerals
Alors que nous nous tenions pour prêcher leurs funérailles
And lay the corpses of the dead away
Et déposer les corps des morts
We told the Colorado governor to call the President
Nous avons dit au gouverneur du Colorado d'appeler le président
Tell him to call off his National Guard
De lui dire de retirer sa Garde nationale
But the National Guard belong to the governor
Mais la Garde nationale appartient au gouverneur
So he didn′t try so very hard
Alors il n'a pas essayé si fort
Our women from Trinidad they hauled some potatoes
Nos femmes de Trinidad ont transporté des pommes de terre
Up to Walsenburg in a little cart
Jusqu'à Walsenburg dans une petite charrette
They sold their potatoes and brought some guns back
Elles ont vendu leurs pommes de terre et ont ramené des armes
And put a gun in every hand
Et ont mis une arme dans chaque main
The state soldiers jumped us in a wire fence corner
Les soldats de l'État nous ont attaqués au coin d'une clôture de fil de fer
They did not know that we had these guns
Ils ne savaient pas que nous avions ces armes
And the red neck miners mowed down them troopers
Et les mineurs aux cols rouges ont abattu ces soldats
You should have seen those poor boys run
Tu aurais voir ces pauvres garçons courir
We took some cement and walled that cave up
Nous avons pris du ciment et nous avons muré cette grotte
Where you killed those thirteen children inside
vous avez tué ces treize enfants à l'intérieur
I said, "God bless the Mine Workers' Union"
J'ai dit : "Que Dieu bénisse le Mine Workers' Union"
And then I hung my head and cried
Et puis j'ai baissé la tête et j'ai pleuré
