Cumberland Mountain Bear Chase
Cumberland Mountain Bear Chase
Away,
away,
we're
bound
for
the
mountain,
Viens,
viens,
on
va
à
la
montagne,
Bound
for
the
mountain,
bound
for
the
mountain
À
la
montagne,
à
la
montagne
Over
the
hills,
the
fields,
Par-dessus
les
collines,
les
champs,
And
the
fountain,
away
to
the
chase,
away,
away!
Et
la
fontaine,
à
la
chasse,
viens,
viens !
Rover,
Rover,
see
him,
see
him;
Rover,
Rover,
catch
him,
catch
him
Rover,
Rover,
regarde-le,
regarde-le ;
Rover,
Rover,
attrape-le,
attrape-le
Over
the
mountain,
the
hills,
Par-dessus
la
montagne,
les
collines,
And
the
fountain,
away
to
the
chase,
away!
Et
la
fontaine,
à
la
chasse,
viens !
Now
all
was
set
just
right
for
the
race;
Maintenant,
tout
est
prêt
pour
la
course ;
The
old
hound
dogs
are
ready
for
the
chase
Les
vieux
chiens
de
chasse
sont
prêts
pour
la
chasse
The
bears
are
a-bounding;
Les
ours
bondissent ;
The
horns
are
a-sounding;
over
the
trail
that
leads
to
the
mountain
Les
cors
sonnent ;
sur
le
sentier
qui
mène
à
la
montagne
Over
the
mountain,
the
hills,
Par-dessus
la
montagne,
les
collines,
And
the
fountain,
away
to
the
chase,
away,
away!
Et
la
fontaine,
à
la
chasse,
viens,
viens !
Listen
to
the
hound
dogs'
heavy
bay
sounding
high
over
the
way
Écoute
la
lourde
baie
des
chiens
de
chasse
qui
résonne
très
haut
All
night
long
till
the
break
of
dawn,
merrily,
the
chase
goes
on
Toute
la
nuit
jusqu’à
l’aube,
la
chasse
continue
joyeusement
Over
the
mountain,
the
hills,
Par-dessus
la
montagne,
les
collines,
And
the
fountain,
away
to
the
chase,
away!
Et
la
fontaine,
à
la
chasse,
viens !
Away,
away,
we're
bound
for
the
mountain,
Viens,
viens,
on
va
à
la
montagne,
Bound
for
the
mountain,
bound
for
the
mountain
À
la
montagne,
à
la
montagne
Over
the
hills,
the
fields,
Par-dessus
les
collines,
les
champs,
And
the
fountain,
away
to
the
chase,
away,
away!
Et
la
fontaine,
à
la
chasse,
viens,
viens !
