Lyrics and translation Johnny Cash - Apache Tears




Apache Tears
Larmes Apaches
Hoof prints and foot prints
Des empreintes de sabots et de pieds
Deep ruts the wagons made
Des sillons profonds creusés par les chariots
The victor and the loser came by here
Le vainqueur et le vaincu sont passés par ici
No head stones but these bones
Pas de pierres tombales, mais ces ossements
Bring Mascalero death moans
Rappellent les pleurs de mort des Mascalero
See the smooth black nuggets
Vois les pépites noires et lisses
By the thousands laying here
Par milliers, gisant ici
Petrified but justified
Pétrifiées mais justifiées
Are these Apache tears
Sont-ce les larmes apaches?
Dead grass, dry roots
Herbe morte, racines sèches
Hunger crying in the night
La faim crie dans la nuit
Ghost of broken hearts and laws are here
Le fantôme des cœurs brisés et des lois est ici
And who saw the young squaw
Et qui a vu la jeune squaw
They judged by their whiskey law
Jugée par leur loi de whiskey
Tortured till she died of pain and fear
Torturée jusqu'à ce qu'elle meure de douleur et de peur
Where the soldiers lay her back
les soldats l'ont laissée
Are the black Apache tears
Sont les larmes apaches noires
The young men, the old men
Les jeunes hommes, les vieux hommes
The guilty and the innocent
Les coupables et les innocents
Bled red blood and chilled alike with fears
Ont versé du sang rouge et ont eu froid tous ensemble de peur
The red men, the white men
Les hommes rouges, les hommes blancs
No fight ever took this land
Aucun combat n'a jamais pris cette terre
So don't raise the dust when you pass here
Alors ne soulève pas la poussière quand tu passes par ici
They're sleeping and in my keeping
Ils dorment et je les garde
Are these Apache tears
Ce sont les larmes apaches
