Paroles et traduction Paul Robeson - Ol' Man River




Ol' Man River
Le vieux fleuve
Dark people work on the Mississippi
Les gens de couleur travaillent sur le Mississippi
Dark people work while de white people play
Les gens de couleur travaillent pendant que les Blancs s'amusent
Pullin' them boats from the dawn to sunset
Tirant ces bateaux de l'aube au coucher du soleil
Gettin' no rest till the judgement day
N'obtenant aucun repos avant le jour du jugement
Don't look up an' don't look down
Ne regarde pas en haut et ne regarde pas en bas
You don't dust, make the white boss frown
Tu ne fais pas la poussière, tu fais froncer les sourcils au patron blanc
Bend your knees an' bow your head
Plie tes genoux et baisse la tête
An' pull that rope until you're dead
Et tire cette corde jusqu'à ce que tu sois mort
Let me go 'way from the Mississippi
Laisse-moi partir du Mississippi
Let me go 'way from the white man boss;
Laisse-moi partir du patron blanc ;
Show me that stream called the river Jordan
Montre-moi ce ruisseau appelé le fleuve Jourdain
That's the ol' stream that I long to cross
C'est le vieux ruisseau que j'aspire à traverser
O' man river that ol' man river
Oh, vieux fleuve, ce vieux fleuve
He must know somethin' but don't say nothin'
Il doit savoir quelque chose mais ne dit rien
He just keeps rollin'
Il continue de rouler
He keeps on rollin' along
Il continue de rouler
Long ol' river forever keeps rollin' on...
Long fleuve qui continue de rouler à jamais...
He don't plant tater
Il ne plante pas de pommes de terre
He don't plant cotton
Il ne plante pas de coton
An' them that plants 'em is soon forgotten
Et ceux qui les plantent sont bientôt oubliés
But ol' man river he just keeps rollin' along
Mais le vieux fleuve, il continue de rouler
Long ol' river keeps hearing that song
Long fleuve qui continue d'entendre cette chanson
You and me, we sweat an' strain
Toi et moi, nous transpirons et nous nous efforçons
Body all achin' and racked with pain
Le corps tout endolori et déchiré par la douleur
Tote that barge!
Transporte cette barge !
Lift that bale!
Soulève ce ballot !
Git a little drunk an' you land in jail
Sois un peu ivre et tu finiras en prison
Ah, gits weary an' sick of tryin'
Oh, je suis las et malade d'essayer
I'm tired of livin' an' scared of dyin'
Je suis fatigué de vivre et j'ai peur de mourir
But ol' man river he just keeps rollin' along
Mais le vieux fleuve, il continue de rouler
