Comment n' ai-je pas pensé à mettre plus tôt sur ma page Facebook cette émouvante et magnifique chanson de Léonard Cohen ?! Voilà, c' est fait !!! Pour mes Oncles entrés en Résistance très jeunes, ainsi que leur Père, dont l' un est revenu à demi fou du camp de Concentration de Buckenwald !

A very haunting, sorrowful song. I heard it on the John Peel Show back in 1981, andit always stayed with me. The sentiments of the track remain regrettably timeless.

cela me rappelle mon enfance, les Boches je les ai en mémoire, demain il faudra des partisans face à l'islam fasciste...(je serai n'y a peut-être pas), les veterans meurent, mais d'autres naissent ....

This day they change their name. Do anyone of you know who they are. Who will help them now.

*Leonard Cohen - The Partisan**all posts today are related to Victory day*"The Partisan"When they poured across the borderI was cautioned to surrender,this I could not do;I took my gun and vanished.I have changed my name so often,I've 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 morningI'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 shadows.Les Allemands étaient chez moi (The Germans were at my home)ils m'ont dit "Résigne-toi" (They said, "Surrender,")mais je n'ai pas pu (this I could not do)j'ai repris mon arme (I took my weapon again)J'ai changé cent fois de nom (I have changed names a hundred times)j'ai perdu femme et enfants (I have lost wife and children)mais j'ai tant d'amis (But I have so many friends)j'ai la France entière (I have all of France)Un vieil homme dans un grenier (An old man, in an attic)pour la nuit nous a cachés (Hid us for the night)les Allemands l'ont pris (The Germans captured him)il est mort sans surprise (He died without 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.

When I hear this song, it speaks of the Spanish Civil war to meI hear Hemmingway, Picasso and GuernicaNot certain whyI don't hear Nazi's, or is it just war in general?Thoughts?
