Lyrics and translation Johnny Cash - The Old Rugged Cross (with Jessi Colter)




The Old Rugged Cross (with Jessi Colter)
La Vieille Croix Rugueuse (avec Jessi Colter)
On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
Sur une colline lointaine se dressait une vieille croix rugueuse,
The emblem of suff'ring and shame;
L'emblème de la souffrance et de la honte ;
And I love that old cross where the Dearest and Best
Et j'aime cette vieille croix le Plus Cher et le Meilleur
For a world of lost sinners was slain.
Pour un monde de pécheurs perdus a été tué.
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
Alors je chérirai la vieille croix rugueuse,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
Jusqu'à ce que mes trophées soient enfin déposés ;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
Je m'accrocherai à la vieille croix rugueuse,
And exchange it someday for a crown.
Et l'échangerai un jour contre une couronne.
Oh, that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
Oh, cette vieille croix rugueuse, si méprisée par le monde,
Has a wondrous attraction for me;
A une attraction merveilleuse pour moi ;
For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above
Car l'Agneau bien-aimé de Dieu a quitté sa gloire d'en haut
To bear it to dark Calvary.
Pour la porter jusqu'au sombre Golgotha.
In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
Dans cette vieille croix rugueuse, tachée de sang si divin,
A wondrous beauty I see,
Une merveilleuse beauté que je vois,
For 'twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
Car c'est sur cette vieille croix que Jésus a souffert et est mort,
To pardon and sanctify me.
Pour me pardonner et me sanctifier.
To the old rugged cross I will ever be true;
A la vieille croix rugueuse je serai toujours fidèle ;
Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
Sa honte et son opprobre je porterai avec joie ;
Then He'll call me someday to my home far away,
Alors il m'appellera un jour à mon foyer lointain,
Where His glory forever I'll share.
sa gloire je partagerai pour toujours.
