Tyger

I am the mountain tigerJe suis le tigre de la montagne
Listen to me!Écoute-moi!
I will be strong in the battleJe serai fort dans la bataille
I will not cryJe n' pleurerai pas

Tyger tyger, burning brightTyger Tyger, burning bright
In the forests of the nightIn the forests of the night

I am the mountain tigerJe suis le tigre de la montagne
The prince of the woodsLe prince des bois
I feel my soul drifting awayJe sens mon âme qui s'éloigne
Shivering with coldQui tremble de froid

You, the pale one, the pale faceToi la Blafarde, la Visage Pâle
Color meColore-moi
With red paint, with walnut stainDe peinture rouge, de brou de noix
For this fightPour ce combat

In the forests of the nightIn the forests of the night
Tyger tyger, burning brightTyger Tyger, burning bright
In the forests of the nightIn the forests of the night

I am the mountain tigerJe suis le tigre de la montagne
I dance for youJe danse pour toi
I howl at the wind, I leave the prisonJe hurle au vent, je quitte le bagne
Look at me!Regarde-moi!

I take the road to the plainJe prends la route vers la plaine
I advance straight aheadJ'avance droit
In the distance the hurricane ragesAu loin l'ouragan se déchaîne
Autumn is hereL'automne est là
