Lyrics and translation Roger McGuinn - Shenandoah




Shenandoah
Shenandoah
Oh Shenandoah I love your daughter,
Oh Shenandoah, j'aime ta fille,
Way hey you rolling river
Hé ho, fleuve roulant,
I'll take her cross yon rolling water
Je l'emmènerai sur cette eau qui se déverse,
Away, we're bound away
Partons, nous partons,
Cross the wide Missouri
Traversons le large Missouri.
The chief disdained the trader's dollar
Le chef méprisait les dollars du commerçant,
Way hey you rolling river
Hé ho, fleuve roulant,
My daughter you shall never follow
Ma fille ne te suivra jamais,
Away, we're bound away
Partons, nous partons,
Cross the wide Missouri
Traversons le large Missouri.
For seven years I courted Sally
Pendant sept ans, j'ai courtisé Sally,
Way hey you rolling river
Hé ho, fleuve roulant,
For seven more, I longed to have her
Pendant sept autres, j'ai aspiré à l'avoir,
Away, we're bound away
Partons, nous partons,
Cross the wide Missouri
Traversons le large Missouri.
She said she would not be my lover
Elle a dit qu'elle ne serait pas ma maîtresse,
Way hey you rolling river
Hé ho, fleuve roulant,
Because I was a tarry sailor
Parce que j'étais un marin paresseux,
Away, we're bound away
Partons, nous partons,
Cross the wide Missouri
Traversons le large Missouri.
At last there came a Yankee skipper
Finalement, un skipper yankee est arrivé,
Way hey you rolling river
Hé ho, fleuve roulant,
He winked his eye and tipped his flipper
Il a fait un clin d'œil et a incliné sa nageoire,
Away, we're bound away
Partons, nous partons,
Cross the wide Missouri
Traversons le large Missouri.
He sold the chief that firewater
Il a vendu au chef cette eau-de-vie,
Way hey you rolling river
Hé ho, fleuve roulant,
And cross the river he stole his daughter
Et il a volé sa fille en traversant le fleuve,
Away, we're bound away
Partons, nous partons,
Cross the wide Missouri
Traversons le large Missouri.
Oh Shenandoah I love your daughter,
Oh Shenandoah, j'aime ta fille,
Way hey you rolling river
Hé ho, fleuve roulant,
I'll take her cross yon rolling water
Je l'emmènerai sur cette eau qui se déverse,
Away, we're bound away
Partons, nous partons,
Cross the wide Missouri
Traversons le large Missouri.
