Ma douce vallèe(original) |
Traîné d’un air nonchalant |
Par deux juments paresseuses |
Un chariot va lentement |
Sur la route poussiéreuse |
Le garçon qui tient les rênes |
Fixe d’un il fatigué |
Les grands peupliers piqués |
Le long de l’immense plaine |
Il est triste et il chante |
Qu’elle était verte ma vallée! |
Qu’elle était douce à regarder! |
Il faisait bon y travailler |
Il faisait bon s’y reposer |
Il porte un vieux pantalon |
Une chemise à carreaux |
Sur la tête un grand chapeau |
Aux souliers des éperons |
C’est un cow-boy qui trimballe |
Dans un chariot qui brinqu’balle |
Les restes de sa maison |
Misérable cargaison |
Il est triste et il chante |
Qu’elle était verte ma vallée! |
Qu’elle était douce à regarder! |
Il faisait bon y travailler |
Il faisait bon s’y reposer |
Pour faire passer sur sa terre |
Les rails du chemin de fer |
Des messieurs bien habillés |
Lui ont dit «Faut t’en aller» |
Fuyant le bruit des machines |
Et la fumée des usines |
Dans un chariot délabré |
Il va vers sa liberté |
En chantant simplement |
Qu’elle était verte ma vallée! |
Qu’elle était douce à regarder! |
Il faisait bon y travailler |
Il faisait bon s’y reposer |
Sur la route poussiéreuse |
Un chariot va lentement |
(translation) |
Dragged nonchalantly |
By two lazy mares |
A cart goes slowly |
On the dusty road |
The boy who holds the reins |
Fixed with a tired eye |
The tall poplars |
Along the vast plain |
He is sad and he sings |
How green was my valley! |
She was sweet to look at! |
It was good to work there |
It was good to rest there |
He wears old pants |
A checked shirt |
On the head a big hat |
In the shoes of the spurs |
He's a cowboy who lugs around |
In a rickety wagon |
The remains of his house |
Miserable cargo |
He is sad and he sings |
How green was my valley! |
She was sweet to look at! |
It was good to work there |
It was good to rest there |
To bring across his land |
The Railroad Tracks |
Well-dressed gentlemen |
They told him "You have to go" |
Running away from the noise of the machines |
And the smoke from the factories |
In a dilapidated cart |
He goes to his freedom |
By just singing |
How green was my valley! |
She was sweet to look at! |
It was good to work there |
It was good to rest there |
On the dusty road |
A cart goes slowly |
