Paroles et traduction de la chanson «The Garden» par PJ Harvey

The Garden (Le Jardin)

And he was walking in the garden
Il marchait dans le jardin
And he was walking in the night
Marchait dans la nuit
And he was singing a sad love song
Il chantait une chanson d'amour triste
And he was praying for his life
Priait pour sa vie

And the stars came out around him
Et les étoiles vinrent autour de lui
He was thinking of his sins
Il pensait à ses péchés
And he's looking at his song-bird
Il regardait cet oiseau chanteur
And he's looking at his wings
Il regardait ses ailes

There, inside the garden
Ici, à l'intérieur du jardin
Came another with his lips
Vint un autre avec ses lèvres
Said "won't you come and be my lover ? "
Disant "Ne veux tu pas être mon amant ? "
"Let me give you a little kiss"
"Laisse moi te donner un petit baiser"

And he came knelt down before him
Il voulut s'agenouiller avant lui
And fell upon his knees
Et tomba brusquement sur ses genoux
"I will give you Gold and Mountains
"Je te donnerai Or et Montagnes
If you stay a while with me"
Si tu restes un peu avec moi"

And there was trouble
Et le trouble
Taking place
S'installait
Trouble
Le trouble
Taking place
S'installait

There, inside the garden
Ici, à l'intérieur du jardin
They kissed and the sun rose
Ils s'embrassèrent et le soleil se leva
And he walked a little further
Et il marcha un peu
And he found he was alone
Et trouva qu'il était seul

And the wind it gathered round him
Et le vent soufflait autour de lui
He was thinking of his sins
Il pensait à ses péchés
And he's looking for his song-bird
Et il cherchait l'oiseau chanteur
He was looking for his wings
Il cherchait ses ailes

And there was trouble
Et le trouble
Taking place
S'installait
Trouble
Le trouble
Taking place
S'installait

There was trouble
Et le trouble
Taking place
S'installait
Trouble
Le trouble
Taking place
S'installait
