Клип Leonard Cohen - The Partisan

Текст Песни Leonard Cohen - The Partisan

When they poured across the border

I was cautioned to surrender,

This I could not do;

I took my gun and vanished.

I have changed my name so often,

Ive lost my wife and children

But I have many friends,

And some of them are with me.

An old woman gave us shelter,

Kept us hidden in the garret,

Then the soldiers came;

She died without a whisper.

There were three of us this morning

Im the only one this evening

But I must go on;

The frontiers are my prison.

Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,

Through the graves the wind is blowing,

Freedom soon will come;

Then well come from the shadows.

Les allemands etaient chez moi,

Ils me dirent, "signe toi,"

Mais je nai pas peur;

Jai repris mon arme.

Jai change cent fois de nom,

Jai perdu femme et enfants

Mais jai tant damis;

Jai la france entie`re.

Un vieil homme dans un grenier

Pour la nuit nous a cache,

Les allemands lont pris;

Il est mort sans surprise.

[the germans were at my home

They said, "sign yourself,"

But I am not afraid

I have retaken my weapon.

I have changed names a hundred times

I have lost wife and children

But I have so many friends

I have all of france

An old man, in an attic

Hid us for the night

The germans captured him

He died without surprise.]

Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,

Through the graves the wind is blowing,

Freedom soon will come;

Then well come from the shadows.
