[ti:the partisan] [ar:leonard cohen ] [al:] [offset:500] [00:14]When they poured across the border [00:17]I was cautioned to surrender, [00:20]this I could not do; [00:24]I took my gun and vanished. [00:28] [00:36]I have changed my name so often, [00:38]I've lost my wife and children [00:42]but I have many friends, [00:46]and some of them are with me. [00:50] [00:54]An old woman gave us shelter, [00:57]kept us hidden in the garret, [01:00]then the soldiers came; [01:04]she died without a whisper. [01:08] [01:13]There were three of us this morning [01:16]I'm the only one this evening [01:18]but I must go on; [01:23]the frontiers are my prison. [01:27] [01:34]Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing, [01:38]through the graves the wind is blowing, [01:40]freedom soon will come; [01:45]then we'll come from the shadows. [01:48] [01:56]Les Allemands e'taient chez moi, [01:58]ils me dirent, "Signe toi," [02:01]mais je n'ai pas peur; [02:06]j'ai repris mon arme. [02:13] [02:17]J'ai change' cent fois de nom, [02:20]j'ai perdu femme et enfants [02:23]mais j'ai tant d'amis; [02:28]j'ai la France enti鑢e. [02:34] [02:39]Un vieil homme dans un grenier [02:42]pour la nuit nous a cache', [02:44]les Allemands l'ont pris; [02:49]il est mort sans surprise. [02:57] [03:00]Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing, [03:03]through the graves the wind is blowing, [03:06]freedom soon will come; [03:11]then we'll come from the shadows.
