Lyrics and translation Lead Belly - House of the Rising Sun
There
is
a
house
in
New
Orleans
Il
y
a
une
maison
à
la
Nouvelle-Orléans
They
call
the
rising
sun
Qu'on
appelle
le
soleil
levant
And
its
been
the
ruin
of
many
a
poor
boy
Et
qui
a
été
la
ruine
de
bien
des
pauvres
garçons
And
me
oh
god
im
one.
Et
moi,
mon
Dieu,
j'en
suis
un.
Im
going
to
tell
my
baby
sister
Je
vais
dire
à
ma
petite
sœur
Please
dont
do
like
i
have
done
S'il
te
plaît,
ne
fais
pas
comme
moi
Please
shun
that
house
in
New
Orleans
S'il
te
plaît,
évite
cette
maison
à
la
Nouvelle-Orléans
They
call
the
Rising
sun.
Qu'on
appelle
le
soleil
levant.
If
I
had
Listened
to
what
my
Mama
said
Si
j'avais
écouté
ce
que
ma
mère
m'avait
dit
I
would
not
be
here
today
Je
ne
serais
pas
ici
aujourd'hui
You'd
have
been
so
young
and
foolish
wild
Tu
aurais
été
si
jeune
et
si
folle
I
let
her
ramble
Orleans
this
way.
Je
l'ai
laissée
errer
dans
la
Nouvelle-Orléans
de
cette
façon.
Im
going
back
to
New
Orleans
Je
retourne
à
la
Nouvelle-Orléans
My
race
is
almost
won
Ma
course
est
presque
terminée
Im
going
back
to
spend
the
rest
of
my
life
Je
retourne
pour
passer
le
reste
de
ma
vie
Benieth
the
rising
sun.
Sous
le
soleil
levant.
