Lyrics " Yerushalaim "

Original text with translation

Yerushalaim

Charles Aznavour

Original text

De temps en temps, comme un enfant

Ma pensée te dessine, Yerushalaïm.

De loin en loin, tu n’es plus qu’un

Rêve qui tombe en ruine, Yerushalaïm.

Tels ces émigrants dont les yeux brûlants

S’ouvrent à l'écho de ton nom.

D’au-delà des mers souvent à travers d’hostiles et dures régions.

J'étais venu, mains vides et pieds nus, à toi Yerushalaïm

Pour me garder, tu as cloué l’amour dans ma poitrine, Yerushalaïm.

Où sont mes joies, n’y a-t-il pas de bonheur sans épines?

Yerushalaïm, tout s’est acharné pour nous déchirer

Et le brouillard de nos pleurs a troublé l’azur élevant un mur

Entre son coeur et mon coeur.

Mais j’ai en moi l’espoir toutefois que l’amour encore renaisse

Et vive encore pour toi, Yerushalaïm.

Song translation

Once in a while, like a child

My thought draws you, Yerushalaim.

From time to time you are one

Dream falling apart, Yerushalaim.

Like those emigrants whose burning eyes

Open to the echo of your name.

From across the seas often through hostile and harsh lands.

I came empty handed and barefoot to you Yerushalaim

To keep me, you nailed love to my chest, Yerushalaim.

Where are my joys, is there no happiness without thorns?

Yerushalaim, everything worked hard to tear us apart

And the mist of our tears clouded the azure raising a wall

Between his heart and my heart.

But I have in me the hope however that love will be reborn again

And live for you again, Yerushalaim.
