Текст и перевод песни Harry Chapin - 30,000 Lbs. of Bananas




30,000 Lbs. of Bananas
30 000 Livres de Bananes
It was just after dark
C'était juste après la tombée de la nuit
When the truck started down
Quand le camion a démarré en descendant
The hill that leads into
La colline qui mène à
Scranton, Pennsylvania
Scranton, Pennsylvanie
Carrying 30, 000 pounds of bananas
Transportant 30 000 livres de bananes
Carrying 30, 000 pounds (hit it, Big John!)
Transportant 30 000 livres (vas-y, Big John !)
(Of bananas)
(De bananes)
He was a young driver
C'était un jeune chauffeur
Just out on his second job
Juste à son deuxième emploi
And he was carrying the next day′s pasty fruits
Et il transportait les fruits pâteux du lendemain
For everyone in that coal-scarred city
Pour tout le monde dans cette ville marquée par le charbon
When children play without despair
les enfants jouent sans désespoir
In backyard slagpiles
Dans les tas de scories des arrière-cours
And folks manage to eat each day
Et les gens arrivent à manger chaque jour
About 30, 000 pounds of bananas
Environ 30 000 livres de bananes
Yes, just about 30, 000 pounds (scream it again, John!)
Oui, environ 30 000 livres (hurle-le encore, John !)
(Of bananas)
(De bananes)
He passed a sign that he should have seen
Il a dépassé un panneau qu'il aurait voir
Saying "Shift to low gear.
Indiquant "Passer en basse vitesse.
A fifty dollar fine, my friend!"
Une amende de cinquante dollars, mon ami !"
He was thinking, perhaps, about the warm-breathed woman
Il pensait peut-être à la femme au souffle chaud
Who was waiting at the journey's end
Qui l'attendait à la fin du voyage
He started down the two mile drop
Il a commencé à descendre la pente de deux milles
The curving road that wound from the top of the hill.
Le chemin sinueux qui descendait du sommet de la colline.
He was pushing on through the shortening miles
Il continuait sa route à travers les kilomètres qui diminuaient
That ran down to the depot.
Qui menaient au dépôt.
Just a few more miles to go.
Il ne restait plus que quelques kilomètres à parcourir.
Then he′d go home and have her ease his long cramped day away
Puis il rentrerait à la maison et la laisserait alléger sa longue journée de travail
From the smell of 30, 000 pounds of bananas.
De l'odeur de 30 000 livres de bananes.
Yes, the smell of 30, 000 pounds of bananas.
Oui, l'odeur de 30 000 livres de bananes.
He was picking up speed as the city spread
Il prenait de la vitesse alors que la ville s'étendait
Its twinkling lights below him.
Ses lumières scintillantes en contrebas.
But he paid no heed as the shivering thoughts
Mais il n'y prêtait aucune attention alors que les pensées tremblantes
Of the night's delights went through him.
Des délices de la nuit le traversaient.
His foot nursed the brakes to slow him down,
Son pied nourrissait les freins pour le ralentir,
But the pedal floored easy without a sound.
Mais la pédale au plancher s'enfonçait facilement sans un son.
He said, "Christ!"
Il a dit, "Christ !"
It was funny how he named
C'était drôle comme il nommait
The only man who could save him now.
Le seul homme qui pouvait le sauver maintenant.
He was trapped inside a dead-end hellslide.
Il était piégé dans une impasse infernale.
Riding on his fear-hunched back
Sur son dos courbé par la peur
Was every one of those yellow-green
Se trouvait chacune de ces bananes jaune-vert
I'm tellin′ ya, 30, 000 pounds of bananas
Je te le dis, 30 000 livres de bananes
Yes, there were 30, 000 pounds of bananas.
Oui, il y avait 30 000 livres de bananes.
He barely made the sweeping curve
Il a failli rater le virage en épingle à cheveux
That led into the steepest grade
Qui menait à la pente la plus raide
And he missed the thankful passing bus
Et il a manqué de peu le bus qui passait en guise de remerciement
At ninety miles an hour!
A cent quarante-quatre kilomètres heure !
And he said, "God, make it a dream!"
Et il a dit, "Dieu, fais-en un rêve !"
As he rode his last rack down.
Alors qu'il descendait sa dernière pente.
He said, "God, make it a dream!"
Il a dit, "Dieu, fais-en un rêve !"
As he rode his last rack down.
Alors qu'il descendait sa dernière pente.
And he sideswiped nineteen neat parked cars
Et il a effleuré dix-neuf voitures bien garées
Clipped off thirteen telephone poles
Arraché treize poteaux téléphoniques
Hit two houses, bruised eight trees,
Touché deux maisons, abattu huit arbres,
And Blue Crossed seven people.
Et blessé sept personnes.
It was then he lost his head,
C'est à ce moment-là qu'il a perdu la tête,
Not to mention an arm or two, before he stopped.
Sans parler d'un bras ou deux, avant de s'arrêter.
And he smeared for four hundred yards
Et il a dérapé sur quatre cents yards
Along the hill that leads into Scranton, Pennsylvania.
Le long de la colline qui mène à Scranton, Pennsylvanie.
Almost 30, 000 pounds
Près de 30 000 livres
Of bananas.
De bananes.
You know, the man who told me about it on the bus
Tu sais, l'homme qui m'en a parlé dans le bus
As it went up the hill out of Scranton, Pennsylvania.
Alors qu'il montait la colline en quittant Scranton, Pennsylvanie.
He shrugged his shoulders. He shook his head.
Il a haussé les épaules. Il a secoué la tête.
And he said (and this is exactly what he said)
Et il a dit (et c'est exactement ce qu'il a dit)
"Boy, it sure must have been something.
"Dis donc, ça a être quelque chose.
Just imagine 30, 000 pounds of bananas.
Imagine juste 30 000 livres de bananes.
Yes, there were 30, 000 pounds
Oui, il y avait 30 000 livres
Of mashed bananas."
De bananes écrasées."
Of bananas
De bananes
Just bananas
Juste des bananes
Thirty pounds
Trente livres
Of bananas
De bananes
Not no driver now
Plus de chauffeur maintenant
Just bananas!
Juste des bananes !
