Garou "Gitan" lyrics

Translation to:bgenhrro

Gitan

Gitan,je revais enfantde vivre libre comme un gitan

Je voyais des plagesde sable noirou couraient des chevaux sauvages

Et je dessinais dans mes cahiersles sentiers secretsDes montagnes d'Espagne

Gitan,quand plus tardj'apprenais mes premiers accords de guitaresur les routes je partais sans bagagesen revant d'autres paysages

Ou je suivais les gens du voyages (Où=where? or Ou=if?)dans leurs caravanesau son des violons tziganes

(refrain)Vivre ma vie comme un gitanavoir la musique dans le sanget pour l' amour n'avoir dans la peauqu'une seule femme a la fois,

Vivre ma vie comme un gitan,vivre ma vie comme je l'entendsavoir la liberté pour drapeausans foi ni loi pour credo

Gitanje le suis et le resteraisle temps de mon vivant

Mes guitares sont d'AmériqueEt mes paysagesde grands espaces blancs

ou je roule dans ma caravaneEn éternel exilDans la jungle des villes

Gitan

Gipsyas a child I dreamt ofliving freely like a gipsy

I saw beachesof black sandwhere wild horses ran

And I drew (from the verb 'drawing') in my notebooksthe secret footpathsof the Spanish mountains

Gipsywhen, later on,I learned my first guitar chordson the road, I left without luggage (I think he means he learns guitar on the streets)dreaming of other landscapes

where I followed the wandering people (lit.: people of the voyages)in their caravansat the sound of gipsy violins

(refrain)Living my life as a gipsyhaving music in my blood (lit.: the blood)and, under my skin, only one womanat the time for love. (I changed the word-order in these two verses)

Living my life as a gipsyliving my life as I hear it (maybe I should say: as I understand it)having freedom as a bannerwithout religion or law [as creed]

Gipsy(A gipsy) I am and I will stayas long as I live

My guitars are AmericanAnd my landscapesgreat white spaces

where I ride (through) in my caravanin eternal exilein the jungle of the cities
