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,
Ive 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
Im 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 well come from the shadows.

Les allemands étaient chez moi,
Ils me dirent, signe toi,
Mais je n'ai pas peur;
J'ai repris mon arme.
J'ai changé 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 caché,
Les allemands l'ont pris;
Il est mort sans surprise.

[ITALIANO: I tedeschi sono stati da me,
mi hanno detto di farmi il segno della croce,
ma non ho paura;
ho preso le armi di nuovo.
Ho cambiato 100 volte nome,
ho perduto la mia donna e i miei figli,
ma ho così tanti amici;
la Francia intera!
un vecchio in un granaio
ci ha nascosti per la notte
i tedeschi lo hanno preso;
e lui è mosrto senza sopresa.]

[the germans were at my home
They said, sign yourself,
But I am not afraid
I have retaken my weapon.
I have changed names a hundred times
I have lost wife and children
But I have so many friends
I have all of france
An old man, in an attic
Hid us for the night
The germans captured him
He died without surprise.]

Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,
Through the graves the wind is blowing,
Freedom soon will come;
Then well come from the shadows.
