Lyrics and translation Bill Monroe - On The Old Kentucky Shore
I
walked
out
to
the
graveyard
Je
suis
allé
au
cimetière
Down
by
the
Church
of
God
Près
de
l'église
de
Dieu
I
looked
upon
the
one
I
love
J'ai
regardé
celle
que
j'aime
That
would
soon
be
covered
with
soil
Qui
allait
bientôt
être
recouverte
de
terre
Up
along
the
Ohio
River
Le
long
de
l'Ohio
Over
on
the
old
Kentucky
shore
Sur
la
rive
du
vieux
Kentucky
Once
dwelled
a
fair
young
maiden
Vivant
une
jeune
fille
Now
there's
a
crepe
upon
her
door
Maintenant,
il
y
a
un
crêpe
sur
sa
porte
The
angels
took
my
darling
Les
anges
ont
pris
ma
chérie
God
needed
the
one
I
loved
Dieu
avait
besoin
de
celle
que
j'aimais
I
reached
the
old
Kentucky
shore
today
J'ai
atteint
la
rive
du

Kentucky
aujourd'hui
I'll
make
my
plans
and
meet
her
up
above
Je
ferai
mes
projets
et
je
la
rejoindrai
là-haut
Up
along
the
Ohio
River

The

words
that
my

mots
que
ma
