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 the shadows
Les Allemands étaient chez-moi; ils me dirent "Résigne-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 entière
Un vieil homme dans un grenier, pour la nuit, nous a cachés
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 shadows
