Текст и перевод песни The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem - The Real Old Mountain Dew

The Real Old Mountain Dew

Let grasses grow and waters flow
in a free and easy way.
Just give me enough of that fine old stuff
that's made near Galway Bay.
And peelers all from Donegal,
Sligo and Leitrum, too.
We'll give them the slip and we'll have a sip
of that real old mountain dew.
Hi the diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day
Hi the diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day

At the foot of the hill there's a neat little still
where the smoke curls up to the sky.
From the smoke and the smell you can plainly tell
there' s poteen brewin' nearby.
For it fills the air with a perfume rare.
Betwixt both you and me,
When home you roll you can take a bowl
or a bucket of the mountain dew.
Hi the diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day
Hi the diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day

And learned men as use the pen
have wrote your praises high.
That sweet poteen from Ireland green,
distilled from wheat and rye.
Throw away your pills, it'll cure all ills,
be you pagan or christian or jew.
Take off your coat and grease your throat
with that real old mountain dew.
Hi the diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day
Hi the diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day

La vraie vieille Mountain Dew

Laisse les herbes pousser et les eaux couler
D'une manière libre et facile.
Donne-moi juste assez de cette bonne vieille boisson
Qui est faite près de la baie de Galway.
Et des peelers de Donegal,
Sligo et Leitrum aussi.
On va leur filer le slip et on va prendre une gorgée
De cette vraie vieille Mountain Dew.
Hi le diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day
Hi le diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day

Au pied de la colline, il y a une petite distillerie bien rangée
Où la fumée monte jusqu'au ciel.
De la fumée et de l'odeur, tu peux facilement dire
Qu'il y a du poteen qui mijote dans les parages.
Car elle remplit l'air d'un parfum rare.
Entre toi et moi,
Quand tu rentres chez toi, tu peux prendre un bol
Ou un seau de Mountain Dew.
Hi le diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day
Hi le diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day

Et les érudits qui utilisent la plume
Ont écrit tes éloges en hauteur.
Ce poteen doux de l'Irlande verte,
Distillé du blé et du seigle.
Jette tes pilules, il guérira tous les maux,
Que tu sois païen, chrétien ou juif.
Enlève ton manteau et graisse ta gorge
Avec cette vraie vieille Mountain Dew.
Hi le diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day
Hi le diddly idle um diddly doo idle um, diddly doo rah diddly-i-day
