Karaoké The Partisan Leonard Cohen

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

I've 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

I'm 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 we'll come from the shadows

Les Allemands étaient chez moi

Ils me dirent "résigne-toi" mais je n'ai pas peur

J'ai repris mon arme

J'ai changé cent fois de nom j'ai perdu femme et enfants mais j'ai tant d'amis

J'ai la France entière

Un vieil homme dans un grenier

Pour la nuit nous a caché les Allemands l'ont pris

Il est mort sans surprise

Oh, the wind the wind is blowing

Through the graves the wind is blowing

Freedom soon will come

Then we'll come from the shadows
