Lyrics and translation The Carter Family with special guest Johnny Cash - My Clinch Mountain Home
Far
away
on
a
hill
to
sunny
mountain
side
Loin,
sur
une
colline,
au
soleil,
côté
montagne
Many
years
ago
we
parted,
my
little
Ruth
and
I
Il
y
a
bien
des
années
que
nous
nous
sommes
séparés,
ma
petite
Ruth
et
moi
From
the
sunny
mountain
side
Du
côté
ensoleillé
de
la
montagne
She
clung
to
me
and
trembled
when
I
told
her
we
must
part
Elle
s'est
accrochée
à
moi
et
a
tremblé
quand
je
lui
ai
dit
que
nous
devions
nous
séparer
She
said,
"Don't
go
my
darling,
it
almost
breaks
my
heart
Elle
a
dit
: "Ne
pars
pas,
mon
chéri,
ça
me
brise
presque
le
cœur
To
think
of
you,
so
far
apart"
De
penser
à
toi,
si
loin."

Back

vieille
maison
de

I
fold
my
arms
around
her,
leaned
her
head
upon
my
breast
Je
l'ai
prise
dans
mes
bras,
elle
a
posé
sa
tête
sur
ma
poitrine
I
told
her
I
would
wed
her
when
I
came
back
from
the
west
Je
lui
ai
dit
que
je
l'épouserais
quand
je
reviendrais
de
l'Ouest
At
my
old
clinch
mountain
home
À
ma
vieille
maison
sur
la
montagne
Clinch
In
my
hand
I
hold
a
picture
of
the
old
home
far
away
Dans
une
main,
je
tiens
une
photo
de
la
vieille
maison,
loin
In
the
other
one
my
sweetheart
I'm
thinking
of
today
Dans
l'autre,
ma
bien-aimée,
à
qui
je
pense
aujourd'hui
On
