Lyrics and translation Ethel Waters - Dinah
Carolina
La
Caroline
Gave
me
Dinah;
M'a
donné
Dinah
;
I'm
the
proudest
one
Je
suis
la
plus
fière
Beneath
the
Dixie
sun.
Sous
le
soleil
du
Dixie.
News
is
spreadin'
La
nouvelle
se
répand
'Bout
our
weddin';
À
propos
de
notre
mariage
;
I
hear
church
bells
ringin',
J'entends
les
cloches
de
l'église
sonner,
Here's
the
song
my
heart
keeps
singin':
Voici
la
chanson
que
mon
cœur
continue
de
chanter :
Dinah,
Dinah,
Is
there
anyone
finer
Y
a-t-il
quelqu'un
de
plus
beau
In
the
state
of
Carolina?
Dans
l'état
de
Caroline ?
If
there
is
and
you
know
her,
S'il
y
en
a
et
que
tu
la
connais,
Show
her!
Montre-la !
Dinah,
Dinah,
With
her
Dixie
eyes
blazin',
Avec
ses
yeux
du
Dixie
qui
flambent,
How
I
love
to
sit
and
gaze
in
Comme
j'aime
m'asseoir
et
contempler
To
the
eyes
of
Dinah
Lee!
Les
yeux
de
Dinah
Lee !
Yet,
every
night,
Pourtant,
chaque
nuit,
My,
how
I
shake
with
fright,
Comme
je
tremble
de
peur,
Because
my
Dinah
might,
Parce
que
ma
Dinah
pourrait,
Change
her
mind
about
me!
Changer
d'avis
sur
moi !
But
if
Dinah,
Mais
si
Dinah,
Ever
wandered
to
China,
S'aventurait
jamais
en
Chine,
I
would
hop
an
ocean
liner,
Je
prendrais
un
paquebot,
Just
to
be
with
Dinah
Lee!
Juste
pour
être
avec
Dinah
Lee !
