paroles de chanson Bonny Light Horseman - Andy Irvine

O Napoleon Bonaparte you're the cause of my woe
Since my Bonny Light Horseman to the wars he did go
Broken hearted I'll wander broken hearted I'll remain
Since my Bonny Light Horseman in the wars he was slain

When Bony commanded his armies to stand
And proudly to his banners all gaily and grand
He levelled his cannons right over the plain
And my Bonny Light Horseman in the wars he was slain

And if I were some small bird and had wings and could fly
I would fly o'er the salt sea where my true love does lie
Three years and six months now since he left this bright shore
O my Bonny Light Horseman will I ne'er see you more

The dove she laments for her mate as she flies
O where tell me where is my true love she sighs
And where in this wide world is there one to compare
With my Bonny Light Horseman who was killed in the war
