Lyrics and translation Pete Seeger - On Top of Old Smokey (Remastered)
On
top
of
old
smokey
all
covered
with
snow
Sur
le
sommet
du
vieux
Smokey,
tout
couvert
de
neige
I
lost
my
true
lover
for
courting
too
slow
J'ai
perdu
ma
vraie
amoureuse
pour
avoir
courtisé
trop
lentement
For
courting's
a
pleasure
and
parting's
a
grief
Car
la
cour
est
un
plaisir
et
la
séparation
un
chagrin
And
a
false
hearted
lover
is
worse
than
a
thief
Et
un
amant
au
cœur
faux
est
pire
qu'un
voleur
For
a
thief
will
just
rob
you
and
take
all
you
save
Car
un
voleur
ne
te
volera
que
ce
que
tu
as
économisé
But
a
false
hearted
lover
will
lead
you
to
the
grave
Mais
un
amant
au
cœur
faux
te
conduira
à
la
tombe
And
the
grave
will
decay
you
and
turn
you
to
dust
Et
la
tombe
te
décomposera
et
te
transformera
en
poussière
Not
one
girl
in
a
hundred
a
poor
boy
can
trust
Pas
une
fille
sur
cent
qu'un
pauvre
garçon
peut
se
permettre
de
croire
They'll
hug
you
and
kiss
you
and
tell
you
more
lies
Elles
te
serreront
dans
leurs
bras,
t'embrasseront
et
te
diront
plus
de
mensonges
Than
cross
lines
on
a
railroad
or
stars
in
the
skies
Que
les
lignes
de
chemin
de
fer
ou
les
étoiles
dans
le
ciel
So
come
all
your
maidens
and
listen
to
me
Alors,
venez
toutes,
mes
demoiselles,
et
écoutez-moi
Never
place
your
affections
on
a
green
willow
tree
Ne
placez
jamais
vos
affections
sur
un
saule
pleureur
For
the
leaves
they
will
wither
and
the
roots
they
will
die
Car
les
feuilles
vont
se
flétrir
et
les
racines
vont
mourir
You'll
all
be
forsaken
and
never
know
why.
Vous
serez
toutes
abandonnées
et
vous
ne
saurez
jamais
pourquoi.
