Текст и перевод песни Billie Holiday - Strange Fruit #2

Strange Fruit #2

Fruit étrange #2

Southern trees bear a strange fruit

Les arbres du Sud portent un fruit étrange

Blood on the leaves and blood at the root

Du sang sur les feuilles et du sang à la racine

Black bodies swingin′ in the Southern breeze

Des corps noirs se balançant dans la brise du Sud

Strange fruit hangin' from the poplar trees

D'étranges fruits pendent des peupliers

Pastoral scene of the gallant South

Scène pastorale du Sud galant

The bulgin′ eyes and the twisted mouth

Les yeux exorbités et la bouche tordue

Scent of magnolias sweet and fresh

Senteur de magnolias douce et fraîche

Then the sudden smell of burnin' flesh

Puis l'odeur soudaine de chair brûlée

Here is a fruit for the crows to pluck

Voici un fruit pour que les corbeaux le cueillent

For the rain to gather

Pour que la pluie le rassemble

For the wind to suck

Pour que le vent l'aspire

For the sun to rot

Pour que le soleil le fasse pourrir

For the tree to drop

Pour que l'arbre le laisse tomber

Here is a strange and bitter crop

Voici une récolte étrange et amère
