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've 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 shadow

Les allemands e'taient chez moi

Ils me dirent,"signe toi"

Mais je n'ai pas peur

J'ai repris mon 芒me

J'ai change' cent fois de nom

J'ai perdu femme et enfants

Mais j'ai tant d'amis

J'ai la france entie`re

Un vieil homme dans un grenier

Pour la nuit nous a cache'

Les allemands l'ont pris

Il est mort sans 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 shadow
