Tom Jones - Green, Green Grass Of Home French translation lyrics

Your rating:

L'herbe verte, verte de chez soi

Ma vieille ville natale est toujours la même,
Alors que je descends du train
Et ma mère et mon père sont là pour m'accueillir
Je regarde la route, et je vois Mary qui arrive en courant
Ses cheveux d'or et ses lèvres semblables à des cerises,
Comme il est bon de toucher l'herbe verte, verte de chez soi
Oui, ils sont tous venus me voir,
Tendant les bras, souriant gentiment
Comme il est bon de toucher l'herbe verte, verte de chez soi
La vieillie maison tient toujours debout,
Bien que la peinture soit craquelée et sèche
Et il y a toujours ce vieux chêne dans lequel je jouais autrefois
Le long du chemin, je marcherai avec ma douce Marie
Ses cheveux d'or et ses lèvres semblables à des cerises,
Comme il est bon de toucher l'herbe verte, verte de chez soi
Puis je me réveille et je regarde tout autour de moi,
Ces quatre murs gris qui m'entourent
Et je me rends compte que, oui, ce n'était qu'un rêve
Il y a un gardien et il y a un vieux prêtre triste
Bras dessus bras dessous, nous irons marcher sous le soleil levant
Une fois de plus, je toucherai l'herbe verte, verte de chez moi
Oui, ils viennent tous me voir
À l'ombre de ce vieux chêne
Tandis qu'ils m'étendent sous l'herbe verte, verte de chez moi

Green, Green Grass Of Home

The old home town looks the same 
as I step down from the train,
and there to meet me is my Mama and Papa.
Down the road I look and there runs Mary 
hair of gold and lips like cherries.
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
Yes, they'll all come to meet me, 
arms reaching, smiling sweetly.
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.

The old house is still standing 
tho' the paint is cracked and dry,
and there's that old oak tree that I used to play on.
Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mary, 
hair of gold and lips like cherries.
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
Yes, they'll all come to meet me, 
arms reaching, smiling sweetly.
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.

Then I awake and look around me, 
at four grey wall surround me 
and I realize, yes, I was only dreaming.
For there's a guard and there's a sad old padre  
arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak.
Again I touch the green, green grass of home.
Yes, they'll all come to see me 
in the shade of that old oak tree
as they lay me neath the green, green grass of home
