Grand Coulee Dam - Original Recording Remastered
Grand Coulee Dam - Enregistrement original remasterisé
Now the world holds seven wonders
Maintenant, le monde compte sept merveilles
That the travellers always tell
Que les voyageurs racontent toujours
Some gardens and some towers,
Quelques jardins et quelques tours,
I guess you know them well
Je suppose que tu les connais bien
But now the greatest wonder
Mais maintenant, la plus grande merveille
Is in Uncle Sam's fair land
Se trouve dans le beau pays d'Oncle Sam
It's the big Columbia River
C'est la grande rivière Columbia
And the big Grand Coulee Dam
Et le grand barrage de Grand Coulee
She heads up the Canadian Rockies
Elle prend sa source dans les Rocheuses canadiennes
Where the rippling waters glide
les eaux ondoyantes glissent
Comes a-roaring down the canyon
Elle rugit en descendant le canyon
For to meet that salty tide
Pour rejoindre la marée salée
Of the big Pacific Ocean
Du grand océan Pacifique
Where the sun sinks in the west
le soleil se couche à l'ouest
In the big Grand Coulee country
Dans le grand pays de Grand Coulee
In the land I love the best
Dans le pays que j'aime le plus
In the misty crystal glitter
Dans la brillance cristalline et brumeuse
Of the wild and windward spray
Des embruns sauvages et exposés au vent
Men have fought the pounding waters
Les hommes ont combattu les eaux déchaînées
And met a watery grave
Et ont trouvé une mort aquatique
Why, she tore their boats to splinters
Eh bien, elle a déchiré leurs bateaux en éclats
But she gave men dreams to dream
Mais elle a donné aux hommes des rêves à rêver
Of the day the Coulee Dam
Du jour le barrage de Coulee
Would cross that wild and wasted stream
Traverserait ce cours d'eau sauvage et gaspillé
Now Uncle Sam took up the challenge
Maintenant, Oncle Sam a relevé le défi
In the year of thirty three
En l'an de mille neuf cent trente-trois
For the farmer and the factory
Pour l'agriculteur et l'usine
And all of you and me
Et pour toi et moi
He said, "Roll along Columbia,
Il a dit : "Roule, Columbia,
You can roll down to the sea
Tu peux rouler jusqu'à la mer
But river, while you're rambling
Mais rivière, pendant que tu déambules
You can do some work for me."
Tu peux faire un peu de travail pour moi."
In the misty crystal glitter
Dans la brillance cristalline et brumeuse
Of the wild and windward spray
Des embruns sauvages et exposés au vent
Men have fought the pounding waters
Les hommes ont combattu les eaux déchaînées
And met a watery grave
Et ont trouvé une mort aquatique
Why, she tore their boats to splinters
Eh bien, elle a déchiré leurs bateaux en éclats
But she gave men dreams to dream
Mais elle a donné aux hommes des rêves à rêver
Of the day the Coulee Dam
Du jour le barrage de Coulee
Would cross that wild and wasted stream
Traverserait ce cours d'eau sauvage et gaspillé
Now from Washington and Oregon
Maintenant, depuis Washington et l'Oregon
You can hear the factories hum
On peut entendre les usines bourdonner
Making chrome and making manganese
Fabriquant du chrome, du manganèse
And white aluminum
Et de l'aluminium blanc
Now the roar of the Flying Fortress
Maintenant, le rugissement de la forteresse volante
For to fight for Uncle Sam
Pour se battre pour Oncle Sam
On the howling King Columbia
Sur le rugissant roi Columbia
By the big Grand Coulee Dam
Près du grand barrage de Grand Coulee
In the misty crystal glitter
Dans la brillance cristalline et brumeuse
Of the wild and windward spray
Des embruns sauvages et exposés au vent
Men have fought the pounding waters
Les hommes ont combattu les eaux déchaînées
And met a watery grave
Et ont trouvé une mort aquatique
Why, she tore their boats to splinters
Eh bien, elle a déchiré leurs bateaux en éclats
But she gave men dreams to dream
Mais elle a donné aux hommes des rêves à rêver
Of the day the Coulee Dam
Du jour le barrage de Coulee
Would cross that wild and wasted stream
Traverserait ce cours d'eau sauvage et gaspillé
Now the world holds seven wonders
Maintenant, le monde compte sept merveilles
That the travellers always tell
Que les voyageurs racontent toujours
Some gardens and some towers,
Quelques jardins et quelques tours,
Why, I guess you know them well
Eh bien, je suppose que tu les connais bien
But now the greatest wonder
Mais maintenant, la plus grande merveille
Is in Uncle Sam's fair land
Se trouve dans le beau pays d'Oncle Sam
It's the big Columbia River
C'est la grande rivière Columbia
And the big Grand Coulee Dam.
Et le grand barrage de Grand Coulee.
