Lyrics
Le prisonnier de la Tour
S’est tu? Ce matin,
Grand-m? Re.
Nous n’irons pas? La messe demain.
Il s’est jet? De la Tour
En me tendant les mains,
Grand-m? Re.
Il m’a sembl? Que j’avais du chagrin.
Si le roi savait? A, Isabelle,
Isabelle, si le roi savait? A,
A la robe de dentelle,
Vous n’auriez plus jamais droit,
Isabelle, si le roi savait? A.
Le prisonnier de la Tour
? Tait mon seul ami,
Grand-m? Re.
Nous n’irons pas? La messe aujourd’hui.
Il? Tait mon seul amour,
La raison de ma vie,
Grand-m? Re Et ma jeunesse est? Teinte avec lui.
Si le roi savait? A, Isabelle,
Isabelle, si le roi savait? A,
A la robe de dentelle,
Vous n’auriez plus jamais droit,
Isabelle, si le roi savait? A.
Le prisonnier de la Tour,
Chaque jour, m’attendait,
Grand-m? Re.
Nous n’irons plus? La messe, jamais.
C’est un p? Ch? Que l’amour
Et le monde est mal fait,
Grand-m? Re.
On a tu? Mon amant que j’aimais.
Si le roi savait? A, Isabelle,
Isabelle, si le roi savait? A,
A la robe de dentelle,
Vous n’auriez plus jamais droit,
Isabelle, si le roi savait? A.
Le prisonnier de la Tour
N’aura pas de linceul
Et rien
Rien qu’un trou noir o? S’engouffrent les feuilles,
Mais moi, j’irai chaque jour
Pleurer sous les tilleuls
Et rien,
Pas m? Me le roi, n’emp? Chera mon deuil.
Si le roi savait? A, Isabelle,
Il ne pourrait que pleurer avec toi
Car il aimait une belle
Qui n'? Tait pas pour un roi
Et la belle, Isabelle, c'? Tait moi…
Lyrics translation
The Prisoner Of The Tower
Did you? This morning,
Grand-m? Re.
We're not going? Mass tomorrow.
Did he jump? tour
Holding out my hands,
Grand-m? Re.
Did it look like it? That I was in grief.
What if the King knew? A, Isabelle,
Isabelle, what if the King knew? To,
A lace dress,
You would never be entitled again,
Isabelle, what if the King knew? A.
The Prisoner Of The Tower
? Shut up my only friend,
Grand-m? Re.
We're not going? Mass today.
He? Shut up my only love,
The reason for my life,
Grand-m? Re and my youth is? Tint with him.
What if the King knew? A, Isabelle,
Isabelle, what if the King knew? To,
A lace dress,
You would never be entitled again,
Isabelle, what if the King knew? A.
The Prisoner Of The Tower,
Every day was waiting for me,
Grand-m? Re.
We're not going? Mass, never.
Is that a p? Ch? That love
And the world is wrong,
Grand-m? Re.
We got you? My lover whom I loved.
What if the King knew? A, Isabelle,
Isabelle, what if the King knew? To,
A lace dress,
You would never be entitled again,
Isabelle, what if the King knew? A.
The Prisoner Of The Tower
Will not have a shroud
And nothing
Nothing but a black hole o? The leaves are engulfing,
But I will go every day
Crying under the linden trees
And nothing,
Not m? Me the king, no emp? Dear my grief.
What if the King knew? A, Isabelle,
He could only cry with you
Because he loved a beautiful
Here? Not for a king
What about the beautiful Isabelle? Shut up.…
