Tekst piosenki
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 have lost my wife and childrenbut 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 eveningbut 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 the shadow.Les Allemands taient chez moi, Ils me dirent, "Resigne-toi",Mais je n'ai pas peur;J'ai repris mon arme. J'ai chang cent fois de nom,J'ai perdu femme et enfants Mais j'ai tant d'amis,J'ai la France entire. Un vieil homme dans un grenier Pour la nuit nous a cach,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.
