Way
back
in
the
hills,
when
a
boy,
I
once
wandered
Là-haut
dans
les
collines,
quand
j'étais
un
garçon,
je
me
promenais
Buried
deep
in
her
grave
lies
a
girl
that
I
love
Enterrée
au
fond
de
sa
tombe
repose
la
fille
que
j'aime
She
was
called
from
this
earth,
a
jewel
for
heaven
Elle
a
été
appelée
de
cette
terre,
un
joyau
pour
le
ciel
More
precious
than
diamonds
more
precious
than
gold.
Plus
précieux
que
les
diamants,
plus
précieux
que
l'or.
A
jewel
here
on
earth,
a
jewel
in
heaven
Un
joyau
ici
sur
terre,
un
joyau
au
ciel
She'll
brighten
the
kingdom
around
God's
great
throne
Elle
illuminera
le
royaume
autour
du
grand
trône
de
Dieu
May
the
angels
have
peace,
God
bless
her
in
heaven
Que
les
anges
aient
la
paix,
que
Dieu
la
bénisse
au
ciel
They've
broken
my
heart
and
they
left
me
to
roam.
Ils
ont
brisé
mon
cœur
et
ils
m'ont
laissé
errer.

When
a
girl
of
sixteen,
we
courted
each
other
Quand
j'avais
seize
ans,
nous
nous
courtions
l'un
l'autre
She
promised
someday
to
become
my
sweet
wife
Elle
a
promis
un
jour
de
devenir
ma
douce
épouse
I
bought
her
the
ring
to
wear
on
her
finger
Je
lui
ai
acheté
la
bague
à
porter
à
son
doigt
But
the
angels
they
called
her
to
heaven
one
night.
Mais
les
anges
l'ont
appelée
au
ciel
une
nuit.
A
jewel
here
on
earth,
a
jewel
in

Un
joyau
ici
sur

un

She'll
brighten
the
kingdom
around
God's
great
throne
Elle
illuminera
le
royaume
autour
du
grand
trône
de
Dieu
May
the
angels
have
peace,
God
bless
her
in
heaven
Que
les
anges
aient
la
paix,
que
Dieu
la
bénisse
au
ciel
They've
broken
my
heart
and
they
left
me
to
roam...
Ils
ont
brisé
mon
cœur
et
ils
m'ont
laissé
errer...
