Lyrics and translation Burl Ives - On Springfield Mountain
On
Springfield
mountain
there
did
dwell
Sur
la
montagne
de
Springfield,
vivait
A
handsome
youth
I
knew
him
well
Un
beau
jeune
homme,
que
je
connaissais
bien
This
handsome
youth
one
day
did
go
Ce
beau
jeune
homme
est
allé
un
jour
Down
to
the
meadow
for
to
mow
Au
pré
pour
faire
la
fenaison
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
He
had
not
mowed
quite
'round
the
field
Il
n'avait
pas
encore
fait
le
tour
du
champ
When
a
poison
serpent
bit
his
heel
Qu'un
serpent
venimeux
lui
a
mordu
le
talon
They
took
him
home
to
Molly
dear
Ils
l'ont
ramené
à
la
maison,
chez
Molly
Which
made
him
feel
so
very
queer
Ce
qui
le
fit
se
sentir
si
mal
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
Now
Molly
had
two
ruby
lips
Maintenant,
Molly
avait
deux
lèvres
de
rubis
With
which
the
poison
she
did
sip
Avec
lesquelles
elle
a
sucé
le
poison
But
Molly
had
a
rotten
tooth
Mais
Molly
avait
une
dent
cariée
And
so
the
poison
killed
them
both
Et
ainsi
le
poison
les
a
tués
tous
les
deux
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
Tu-rudy-nay,
tu-rudy-new,
tu-rudy-nay-tu-rudy-new
