Lyrics and translation The Carter Family - Jim Blakes Message




Jim Blakes Message
Le message de Jim Blake
Went over the wires tonight
Ce soir, sur les fils
The message was brought to the depot
Le message est arrivé au dépôt
By a lad all trembling with fright
Par un jeune garçon tremblant de peur
He entered the office crying
Il est entré au bureau en pleurant
His face was terribly white
Son visage était terriblement pâle
And this message to dad and his engine
Et ce message pour papa et son moteur
"Mother is dying tonight"
"Maman est en train de mourir ce soir"
In something less than an hour
En moins d'une heure
Jim's answer back to me flew
La réponse de Jim m'est parvenue
"Tell wife I'll be there at midnight
"Dites à ma femme que je serai à minuit
I'm praying for her, too"
Je prie pour elle aussi"
"I left my son in the office"
"J'ai laissé mon fils au bureau"
Said the message to Jim's wife
Dit le message à la femme de Jim
I found the dying woman
J'ai trouvé la femme mourante
Was scarce of breath and life
Elle avait peu de souffle et de vie
For hill and dale and valley
Sur les collines, les vallées
Thunders a heavy train
Un lourd train gronde
Its engine is sobbing and throbbing
Son moteur sanglote et palpite
And under a terrible strain
Et subit une terrible tension
But Jim hangs on to his throttle
Mais Jim s'accroche à sa manette des gaz
Guiding her crazy flight
Guidant son vol fou
And his voice cries out in the darkness
Et sa voix crie dans l'obscurité
"Godspeed the express tonight"
"Bonne chance à l'express ce soir"
I telephoned the doctor
J'ai téléphoné au docteur
"How is Jim's wife?" I asked
"Comment va la femme de Jim ?" J'ai demandé
"About the hour of midnight
"Vers l'heure de minuit
Is long as she can last"
Elle ne pourra plus durer"
In something less than an hour
En moins d'une heure
The train will be along
Le train sera
But here, I have a message
Mais ici, j'ai un message
Oh God, there is something wrong
Oh mon Dieu, il y a quelque chose qui ne va pas
The message reads "Disaster"
Le message indique "Catastrophe"
The train is in the ditch
Le train est dans le fossé
The engineer is dying
Le conducteur est en train de mourir
Derailed by an open switch
Déraillé par un aiguillage ouvert
And there's another message
Et il y a un autre message
To Jim's wife it is addressed
À la femme de Jim, il est adressé
"I'll meet her at midnight in heaven
"Je la retrouverai à minuit au paradis
Don't wait for the fast express"
N'attendez pas le train express"
