Il y longtemps au temps des rois
Long ago in the time of kings
C'était à Londres par un froid matin
It was in London on a cold morning
Sur un vieux pont, une vieille femme pleurait
On an old bridge, an old woman was crying
Sur le sort de son fils Geordie
On the fate of his son Geordie
Ô mon Geordie sera pendu demain à l'aube
Oh my Geordie will be hanged tomorrow at dawn
Sera pendu par une chaine en or
Will be hanged by a gold chain
Il va mourir pour avoir aimé
He will die for having loved
Aimé la fille du roi
Loved the king's daughter
Des nuits, des jours, longtemps j'ai marché
Nights, days, long I walked
Combien de jours, je ne m'en souviens plus
How many days, I don't remember
Pour arriver à la cour de Londres
To reach the court of London
Plaider la cause de mon Geordie
Pleading my Geordie's case
Ô mon Geordie n'a jamais volé ou tué
O my Geordie never stole or killed
Il est si jeune, c'est un enfant
He's so young, he's a child
Prenez ma vie, je suis une vieille femme
Take my life, I'm an old woman
Mais épargnez celle de mon Geordie
But spare my Geordie's
Le juge regarda par dessus son épaule
The judge looked over his shoulder
Il dit Brave dame, je regrette
He says Good lady, I'm sorry
Il dit Brave dame, vous devriez partir
He says Good lady, you should leave
Car je ne peux rien pour votre Geordie
Cause I can't do anything for your Geordie
Ô mon Geordie sera pendu demain à l'aube
Oh my Geordie will be hanged tomorrow at dawn
Sera pendu par une chaine en or
Will be hanged by a gold chain
Il va mourir pour avoir aimé
He will die for having loved
Aimé la fille du roi
Loved the king's daughter
