Song of the french partisan

When they poured across the border
I was cautioned to surrender,
this I could not do
I took my gun and vanished.

An old woman gave us shelter,
kept us hidden in the garret,
then the soldiers came
she died without a whisper.

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.

There were three of us this morning
I'm the only one this evening
still I must go on
the frontiers are my prison.

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.

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.

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
