The Partisan (Live Oct 10, 2008; Hartwall Arena, Helsinki, Finland)

Artist：leonard cohen

Songs Title：the partisan

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 have 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 e'taient chez moi （The Germans were at my home）

Ils me dirent ＂Signe toi ＂ （They said ＂Sign yourself ＂）

Mais je n'ai pas peur; （But I am not afraid）

J'ai repris mon arme （I have retaken my weapon ）

J'ai change' cent fois de nom （I have changed names a hundred times）

J'ai perdu femme et enfants （I have lost wife and children）

Mais j'ai tant d'amis; （But I have so many friends）

J'ai la France entie're （I have all of France）

Un vieil homme dans un grenier （An old man in an attic）

Pour la nuit nous a cache' （Hid us for the night）

Les Allemands l'ont pris; （The Germans captured him）

Il est mort sans surprise （He died without 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
