Translation to:enro

Mathilde

Ma mère, voici le temps venuD´aller prier pour mon salutMathilde est revenueBougnat, tu peux garder ton vinCe soir je boirai mon chagrinMathilde est revenueToi la servante, toi la MariaVaudrait p´t-être mieux changer nos drapsMathilde est revenueMes amis, ne me laissez pas, nonCe soir je repars au combatMaudite Mathilde, puisque te v´là

Mon cœur, mon cœur ne t´emballe pasFais comme si tu ne savais pasQue la Mathilde est revenueMon cœur, arrête de répéterQu´elle est plus belle qu´avant l´étéLa Mathilde qui est revenueMon cœur, arrête de bringuebalerSouviens-toi qu´elle t´a déchiréLa Mathilde qui est revenueMes amis, ne me laissez pas, nonDites-moi, dites-moi qu´il ne faut pasMaudite Mathilde puisque te v´là

Et vous mes mains, restez tranquillesC´est un chien qui nous revient de la villeMathilde est revenueEt vous mes mains, ne frappez pasTout ça ne vous regarde pasMathilde est revenueEt vous mes mains, ne tremblez plusSouvenez-vous quand j´vous pleurais d´ssusMathilde est revenueVous mes mains, ne vous ouvrez pasVous mes bras, ne vous tendez pasSacrée Mathilde puisque te v´là

Ma mère, arrête tes prièresTon Jacques retourne en enferMathilde m´est revenueBougnat, apporte-nous du vinCelui des noces et des festinsMathilde m´est revenueToi la servante, toi la MariaVa tendre mon grand lit de drapsMathilde m´est revenueAmis, ne comptez plus sur moiJe crache au ciel encore une foisMa belle Mathilde puisque te v´là, te v´là!

Mathilde

My mother, here, the time has comeFor you to pray for my salvationMathilde's come backBougnat, you can keep your wineTonight I'll drink my griefMathilde's come backYou, the servant, you, the MariaIt'd be worthy perhaps to change the sheetsMathilde's come backMy friends, don't leave me, noTonight I'm returning to the combatAccursed Mathilde, for you're here

My heart, my heart, don't go wildAct as if you didn't knowThat the Mathilde has come backMy heart, stop repeatingThat she's more beautiful than before the summerThe Mathilde that has come backMy heart, stop shaking aboutRemind yourself that she tore you upThe Mathilde that has come backMy friends, don't leave me, noTell me, tell me that it's not not necessaryAccursed Mathilde, for you're here

And you, my hands, stay calmIt's a dog that's coming back to us from the cityMathilde's come backAnd you my hands, don't thwack aroundAll of this does not concern youMathilde's come backAnd you my hands, do not tremble anymoreRemind yourselves how I cried on youMathilde's come backYou my hands, do not open yourselvesYou my arms, do not stretch yourselvesSacred Mathilde, for you're here

My mother, stop your prayersYour Jacques is returning to hellMathilde's come back to meBougnat, bring us wineThat of weddings and feastsMathilde's come back to meYou the servant, you the MariaGo change the sheets of my big bedMathilde's come back to meFriends, don't count on me anymoreI'm spitting on the heavens yet againMy beautiful Mathilde, for you're here, you're here!
