Charles Aznavour
Jag gissar att fantastiske Aznavour, idag över 90 år gammal, inte gör några sångframträdanden längre.
Deux tziganes, sans répit,
grattent leurs guitares,
ranimant du fond des nuits
toute ma mémoire
Sans savoir que roule en moi
un flot de détresse,
font renaître sous leurs doigts
ma folle jeunesse
E kh raz, is cho raz, is ch mnaga mnaga raz
e kh raz, is cho raz
is cho mnaga mnaga raz
Jouez tziganes, jouez pour moi
avec plus de flammes
afin de couvrir la voix
qui dit mon âme :
Où as-tu mal ? Pourquoi tu es malade ?
T'as mal la tête mais,
bois un peu moins aujourd'hui
tu boiras plus demain
et encore plus après demain
E kh raz, is cho raz, is ch mnaga mnaga raz
e kh raz, is cho raz
is cho mnaga mnaga raz
Je veux rire, je veux chanter
et souler ma peine
pour oublier le passé
qu'avec moi je traîne
Allez, apportez-moi du vin fort
car le vin délivre
oh, versez, versez m'en encore
pour que je m'enivre
E kh raz, is cho raz, is ch mnaga mnaga raz
e kh raz, is cho raz
is cho mnaga mnaga raz
Deux guitares en ma pensée
jettent un trouble immense
M'expliquant la vanité
de notre existence
Que vivons nous ? Pourquoi vivons nous ?
Quelle est la raison d'être?
Tu es vivant aujourd'hui, tu seras mort demain
Et encore plus après demain
La la la ekh
en is ch, is ch, is ch mnaga mnaga mnaga eh
en is ch raz, ch mnaga mnaga raz
Quand je serais ivre mort
faible et lamentable
et que vous verrez mon corps
rouler sous la table, alors...
Alors vous pourrez cesser
vos chants qui résonnent
mais en attendant, jouez,
Jouez, j'ordonne!
La la la ekh
en is ch, is ch, is ch mnaga mnaga mnaga eh
en is ch raz, ch mnaga mnaga raz ! (x3)
The two guitars
Two gypsies without taking a break
are scratching on their guitars
From the depth of nights they revive
All my memories
Without knowing there's inside me
A big flood of distress
They bring back with their fingers
My youth of craziness
Hey, once again, play it once again
Again and again and again and again
Play it again
Play gypsies, play for me
With more passion than that
To drown out the voice
That speaks to my soul
Where are you hurt, why are you hurt ?
Ah you have a headache
But drink less today, you'll drink more tomorrow
And even more the day after tomorrow
Hey, once again, play it once again
Again and again and again and again
Play it again
I want to laugh and sing
And drink to cover my pain
To forget the past
That I'm carrying
Come on, bring me strong wine
Because the wine releases me
Oh, pour it, give me even more
So that I can get drunk
Hey, once again, play it once again
Again and again and again and again
Play it again
Two guitars throw in my thoughts
An infinite distress
As explaining the vanity
of our existence
What are we living, why do we even live ?
What is the reason to be alive ?
You live today, tomorrow you'll be dead
And even more dead the day after tomorrow
Hey, once again, play it once again
Again and again and again and again
Play it again
When I'll be dead drunk
Weak and pathetic
And that you'll see my body
Rolling down under the table
So then, then you can stop
Your resonating songs
But until that keep playing !
Play, it's my order
Hey, once again, play it once again
Again and again and again and again
Play it again
