Salvatore Adamo "Inch'Allah" lyrics

Translation to:enhurutr

Inch'Allah

J'ai vu l'Orient dans son écrinAvec la lune pour bannièreEt je comptais en un quatrainChanter au monde sa lumière

Mais quand j'ai vu JérusalemCoquelicot sur un rocherJ'ai entendu un requiemQuand sur lui je me suis penché

Ne vois-tu pas, humble chapelleToi qui murmures "Paix sur la Terre"Que les oiseaux cachent de leurs ailesCes lettres de feu : "Danger : frontière" ?

Le chemin mène à la fontaineTu voudrais bien remplir ton seauArrête-toi, Marie-MadeleinePour eux, ton corps ne vaut pas l'eau

Inch'Allah, Inch'Allah, Inch'Allah, Inch'Allah

Et l'olivier pleure son ombreSa tendre épouse, son amieQui reposent sous les décombresPrisonnières en terre ennemie

Sur une épine de barbelésLe papillon guette la roseLes gens sont si écervelésQu'ils me répudieront, si j'ose

Dieu de l'enfer ou Dieu du cielToi qui te trouves ou bon te sembleSur cette terre d'IsraëlIl y a des enfants qui tremblent

Inch'Allah, Inch'Allah, Inch'Allah, Inch'Allah

Les femmes tombent sous l'orageDemain, le sang sera lavéLa route est faite de courageUne femme pour un pavé

Mais oui, j'ai vu JérusalemCoquelicot sur un rocherJ'entends toujours ce requiemLorsque, sur lui, je suis penché

Requiem pour six millions d'âmesQui n'ont pas leur mausolée de marbreEt qui, malgré le sable infâmeOnt fait pousser six millions d'arbres

Inch'Allah, Inch'Allah, Inch'Allah, Inch'Allah

Insh'Allah

I saw the East in its jewel caseThe moon was its bannerAnd in four lines, I wantedTo sing its light to the whole world

But when I saw JerusalemSuch as a poppy on a boulderI heard a requiemAs I bent over it

Can't you see, o modest chapelWhich whispers, "Peace on Earth"That birds are hiding behind their wingsThose fiery letters saying, "Caution: borderlines"?

That path leads to the fountainYou wish you could fill up your bucketBut stop, Mary MagdaleneTo them, your body isn't worth water

Insh'Allah, Insh'Allah, Insh'Allah, Insh'Allah

The olive tree is grieving his shadowHis dear spouse, his friendWho are resting under the ruinsAs prisoners behind enemy lines

Perching on a barbed wire's thornThe butterfly is seeing the rosePeople are so brainlessThat they'll reject me, if I dare...

God of Hell or god of HeavenYou who are wherever you likeOn this land of IsraelChildren are shivering

Insh'Allah, Insh'Allah, Insh'Allah, Insh'Allah

Women are falling under the hurricaneTomorrow, the blood will already be washed awayThat road is made of courageWhose every single slab is a woman*

Yes, I did see JerusalemSuch as a poppy on a boulderI still hear this requiemWhen I bend over it

Requiem for six million soulsWho don't have their own marble mausoleumAnd who in spite of the unwelcoming sandHave grown six million trees

Insh'Allah, Insh'Allah, Insh'Allah, Insh'Allah
