Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song Veuve De Guerre , by - Barbara. Song from the album La Joconde, in the genre ДжазVeuve De Guerre(original) |
| Mon mari est mort à la guerre. |
| Je venais d’avoir 18 ans. |
| Je fus à lui seul toute entière, |
| De son vivant |
| Mais le jour de la fête, |
| On me conte fleurette. |
| Peut-être qu’on aurait pas pu |
| Si je n’avais pas tant bu. |
| Comme j'étais couchée sur le ciment, |
| On a pu facilement devenir mon amant. |
| Si ça devait arriver, |
| C’est que ça devait arriver. |
| Tout dans la vie arrive à son heure. |
| Il faut bien qu’on vive. |
| Il faut bien qu’on boive. |
| Il faut bien qu’on aime. |
| Il faut bien qu’on meure. |
| Mon amant est mort à la guerre. |
| Je venais d’avoir 19 ans. |
| Je fus à lui seul toute entière |
| De son vivant, |
| Mais quand j’ai appris ça, |
| Je ne sais ce qui se passe, |
| Je ne sais quelle folie, |
| Je ne sais quelle furie: |
| En un jour, je pris 3 amants |
| Et puis encore autant |
| Dans le même laps du temps. |
| Si ça devait arriver, |
| C’est que ça devait arriver. |
| Tout dans la vie arrive à son heure. |
| Il faut bien qu’on vive. |
| Il faut bien qu’on boive. |
| Il faut bien qu’on aime. |
| Il faut bien qu’on meure. |
| Tous les six sont morts à la guerre, |
| A la guerre que font mes amants. |
| Bientôt, chez nous, y aura plus guère |
| D’hommes vivants |
| Mais quand un seul restera, |
| J'épouserai celui-là. |
| On sera enfin tranquille |
| Jusqu’au jour où nos filles |
| En seront aussi au moment |
| De prendre des amants |
| Comme leur pauvre maman. |
| Si ça doit arriver, |
| C’est que ça doit arriver. |
| Tout dans la vie arrive à son heure. |
| Il faut bien qu’on vive. |
| Il faut bien qu’on boive. |
| Il faut bien qu’on aime. |
| Il faut bien qu’on meure. |
| Il faut bien qu’on vive. |
| Il faut bien qu’on boive. |
| Il faut bien qu’on aime. |
| Il faut bien qu’on meure |
| (translation) |
| My husband died in the war. |
| I had just turned 18. |
| I was all his alone, |
| In his lifetime |
| But on the feast day, |
| They flirt with me. |
| Maybe we couldn't |
| If I hadn't had so much to drink. |
| As I lay on the cement, |
| We could easily become my lover. |
| If it should happen, |
| That had to happen. |
| Everything in life happens in its time. |
| We have to live. |
| We gotta drink. |
| We gotta love it. |
| We have to die. |
| My lover died in the war. |
| I had just turned 19. |
| I was all his alone |
| In his lifetime, |
| But when I learned that, |
| I don't know what's going on, |
| I don't know what madness, |
| I don't know what fury: |
| In one day I took 3 lovers |
| And then so many more |
| In the same time frame. |
| If it should happen, |
| That had to happen. |
| Everything in life happens in its time. |
| We have to live. |
| We gotta drink. |
| We gotta love it. |
| We have to die. |
| All six died in the war, |
| To the war my lovers are waging. |
| Soon, with us, there will be little |
| Of living men |
| But when only one remains, |
| I will marry that one. |
| We'll finally be at peace |
| Until the day when our daughters |
| Will also be at the time |
| To take lovers |
| Like their poor mother. |
| If it should happen, |
| That's got to happen. |
| Everything in life happens in its time. |
| We have to live. |
| We gotta drink. |
| We gotta love it. |
| We have to die. |
| We have to live. |
| We gotta drink. |
| We gotta love it. |
| We have to die |
