A Boy for One More Day/Sur la Champ de Bataille
by Andrea Menard, socan, June 2001/ by Louis Riel, 1885



What happened to this day?
This day’s been marred by battle.
And battle calls all men.
Are you a man now, my love?
Or will you stay a boy for one more day.

You hear the bugle sound.
You will go and fight with honour.
But if, my love, you shall fall,
Will it all be worthwhile?
Please will you stay a boy for one more day.


This war can’t be avoided.
I know my people must stand.
My loyalty is divided
Between my love and my land.


Whatever you may decide,
I will wait for you.
But a girl I’ll no longer be,
If you are a man now, my love?
Please will you stay a boy for one more day.

_______
Sur le champ de bataille.
Qu’est un champ de duleur
On voit que sait mitrait
Ca fait fremir la coeur

Mourir faux mourir
Chacun aura sont tous
J’aime mieux mourir une brave
Font tous mourir une jour.
