Bobby Sands
by Soldat Louis es chansons des rues de Belfast Ont le m�me parfum d'Irlande Elles pleurent comme le ciel de Belfast, Comme ont pleur�s les yeux de Bobby Sands. Les chansons d'amour en Ulster Font briller les yeux des filles, Parfois oublier l'Angleterre, Les militaires stationn�s pour la vie. Les chansons de guerre � Belfast Sont pi�g�es de haines farouches Pour hurler � la gueule d'en face. Pour eux, il restera toujours une cartouche. Refrain : Chantez plus fort, que le monde vous entende, Jurez �A mort l'insolente!�, Luttez encore, comme pour l'ind�pendance, Aimez plus fort comme aimait Bobby Sands. Toutes les chansons d'Irlande du Nord Se souviennent d'une dame de fer Qui s'�tait jur� d'les voir morts Un passeport catholique bon pour l'Enfer! Les chansons des pubs de Belfast O� m�me la bi�re est militante, L'ivresse �tant bien moins n�faste Que l'arrogance de la classe protestante. REFRAIN Les chansons de cur�, en Irlande, Ont quelques �mes � d�fendre. Si pour les deux c�t�s, elles chantent, Sans armes, elles savent, pas de miracle � attendre. Les chansons des m�mes de Belfast Sentent d�j� bon la col�re, Pour que l'injustice n'ait plus sa place, Les poingts serr�s avant le plastic du p�re. REFRAIN Chantez plus fort, que le monde vous entende, Jurez �A mort l'insolente!�, Luttez encore, comme pour l'ind�pendance, Aimez plus fort comme aimait Bobby Sands. Les chansons des rues de Belfast Ont le m�me parfum d'Irlande; Elles pleurent comme le ciel de Belfast, Comme ont pleur�s les yeux de Bobby Sands. |

Here is a translation of the first song. I just wish my English translation were as good as the French text.
Slan go foill Bobby Sands by Soldat Louis The songs of Belfast's streets Have the same scent of Ireland They cry, like Belfast's sky, Like have cried Bobby Sands'eyes. Love songs in Ulster Get the girls'eyes shining, Sometimes help forgetting England, The soldiers stationed for a lifetime. War songs in Belfast Are trap with fierce hates To shout to the other's face For them, there will always be a cartridge left Refrain : Sing louder, so that the world would hear you, Swear "Death to the insolent!" Keep fighting, as for the independence, Love stronger, as Bobby Sands did love. All the songs of Nothern Ireland Still remember some Iron Lady who swore she would see them dead With a catholic passport right to hell ! The songs of Belfast's pubs Where even the beer is militant, Drunkeness is still far less harmful Than the arrogance of the Protestant class. REFRAIN Priests' songs, in Ireland Have few Souls to defend. Even though they sing for both sides, Without arms, they know, there's no miracle to be expected. The songs of Belfast' kids Already smell good with anger, So that injustice wouldn't have its place anymore, Their fists before the father's plastic. REFRAIN Sing louder, so that the world would ear you, Swear "Death to the insolent!" Keep fighting, as for the independence, Love stronger, as Bobby Sands did love The songs of Belfast's streets Have the same scent of Ireland They cry, like Belfast's sky, Like have cried Bobby Sands'eyes. Like have cried the eyes for Bobby Sands. |
