Original lyrics
La complainte du partisan
Les Allemands étaient chez moi
On m'a dit "Résigne-toi"
Mais je n'ai pas pu
Et j'ai repris mon arme
Personne ne m'a demandé
D'où je viens et où je vais
Vous qui le savez
Effacez mon passage
~ ~
J'ai changé cent fois de nom
J'ai perdu femme et enfants
Mais j'ai tant d'amis
Et j'ai la France entière
Hier encore, nous étions trois
Il ne reste plus que moi
Et je tourne en rond
Dans la prison des frontières
~ ~
Un vieil homme dans un grenier
Pour la nuit nous a cachés
L'ennemi l'a pris
Il est mort sans surprise
Le vent souffle sur les tombes
La liberté reviendra
On nous oubliera
Nous rentrerons dans l'ombre

Translation
The Partisan
The Germans were at my home
They said, "Give up"
But I could not
And I took up my weapon
Nobody asked me
From where I came and where I go
You who know
Erase my tracks
I have changed my name a hundred times
I've lost wife and children
But I have such friends
And I have the whole of France
An old man, in an attic
Hid us for a night
The Germans took him
He died without surprise
Yesterday we were three
Now there is just me
And I turn in circles
In the prison of the borders
The wind blows on the tombs
Freedom will return
They will forget us
We will return the shadows.

It's the original song for The Partisans (Leonard Cohen) but the lyrics are not exactly the sames.
