OriginalVersion française – LA MAISON DU SOLEIL LEVANT – Marco Valdo M.I....
THE HOUSE OF THE RISING SUNLA MAISON DU SOLEIL LEVANT
  
There is a house in New OrleansIl y a une maison à la Nouvelle-Orléans
They call the Rising SunOn l'appelle le Soleil Levant
And it has been the ruin of many a poor girlElle a détruit tant de pauvres enfants
And me, oh God, for oneEt moi, j'en suis une, Maman
  
If I had listened to what my mother saidAh ! Si je t'avais écouté maman
I'd been at home todayJ'aurais été chez nous maintenant
But I was young and foolish, oh GodMais j'étais jeune et folle, oh Maman
Let the rambler lead me astrayDe suivre ce foutu fainéant
  
Go and tell my baby sisterVa dire à ma sœur cadette
Don't do what I have doneDe ne pas comme moi faire la bête
But to shun that house in New OrleansEt d'éviter cette maison de la Nouvelle-Orléans
They call the Rising SunQu'on appelle le Soleil Levant
  
I'm going back to New OrleansMoi, je retourne à la Nouvelle-Orléans
My race is almost runMa course est presque finie
I'm going back to spend my lifeJ'y retourne pour terminer ma vie
Beneath that Rising SunSous ce Soleil Levant
