Lyrics
I’ve heard there was a secret chord
– Mwen te tande te gen yon akò sekrè
That David played and it pleased the Lord
– Ke David te jwe E Li te fè Seyè a plezi
But you don’t really care for music, do ya?
– Men, ou pa vrèman pran swen pou mizik, ou fè?
Well it goes like this: the fourth, the fifth
– Oke li ale tankou sa a: katriyèm lan, senkyèm lan
The minor fall, the major lift
– Ti tonbe a, gwo leve a
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
– Wa a konfonn konpoze Aleluya
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
– Aleluya, Aleluya
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, hmm
– Aleluya, Aleluya, hmm
Well, your faith was strong, but you needed proof
– Oke, lafwa ou te fò, men ou te bezwen prèv
You saw her bathing on the roof
– Ou te wè l ap benyen sou do kay la
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew ya
– Bote li nan limyè lalin lan te ranvèse ou
She tied you to the kitchen chair
– Li mare ou nan chèz la kwizin
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
– Li te kraze fòtèy ou e li te koupe cheve ou
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
– Ak nan bouch ou li te trase Aleluya a
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
– Aleluya, Aleluya
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
– Aleluya, Aleluya
Well baby, I’ve been here before
– Bon ti bebe, mwen te isit la anvan
I’ve seen this room and I’ve walked this floor
– Mwen te wè chanm sa a e mwen te mache etaj sa a
I used to live alone before I knew ya
– Mwen te konn viv pou kont mwen anvan mwen te konnen ou
And I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch
– E mwen te wè drapo ou sou marble arch la
And love is not a victory march
– E lanmou se pa yon mach viktwa
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
– Li se yon frèt e li se Yon Aleluya kase
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
– Aleluya, Aleluya
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
– Aleluya, Aleluya
Well, maybe there’s a God above
– Oke, petèt gen Yon Bondye pi wo a
But all I’ve ever learned from love
– Men tout sa mwen te janm aprann nan renmen
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
– Te kijan pou tire yon moun ki te surpasser ou
And it’s not a cry that you hear at night
– Epi se pa yon kriye ke ou tande nan mitan lannwit
It’s not somebody who has seen the Light
– Se pa yon moun ki te wè Limyè a
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
– Li se yon frèt e li se Yon Aleluya kase
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
– Aleluya, Aleluya
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
– Aleluya, Aleluya
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
– Aleluya, Aleluya
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
– Aleluya, Aleluya
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
– Aleluya, Aleluya
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
– Aleluya, Aleluya
