Mountain Song

John Denver

Transposer:

I came here from the city a thousand miles away. I came just for a little while you know I never meant to stay. I meant to take my pleasure have a good time and be gone. But I fell in love with a lady now I sing a mountain song. I listened to the music of the night wind in the pines. I've seen the quiet splendor of a field of columbine. I skied on crystal pathways to a mountain peak so tall and I walked the mighty summits with the one who made it all. And I fell in love with a lady 'cause I've seen her at her best. And I've walked her wild and rugged paths through her open wilderness. And now I never can betray her steal her riches and be gone 'Cause when you fall in love with a lady you gotta sing a mountain song. Now people come from everywhere to see what they can find. And some take lots of pictures and some just take their time. But there are some who take her beauty that can't be bought or sold And they think of only money while destroying wealth untold. But you fall in love with a lady when you've slept upon her breast and you've walked her wild and rugged paths through her open wilderness And you never can betray her steal her riches and be gone. 'Cause when you fall in love with a lady you gotta sing a mountain song. ...

Cette chanson raconte l'histoire d'un homme qui, en venant d'une grande ville, ne s'attendait pas à tomber amoureux de la nature et d'une belle région montagneuse. Au départ, son intention était de profiter d'un séjour bref, mais il se laisse emporter par la beauté des paysages et la sérénité des lieux, tout en partageant ces moments avec une femme qu'il aime profondément. Il évoque la magie des nuits bercées par le vent et la splendeur des champs fleuris, ainsi que les aventures vécues ensemble sur des sommets majestueux. Cette connexion avec la nature devient indissociable de son amour pour cette belle région. Il souligne également l'importance de préserver cette beauté et la nature elle-même face à ceux qui ne voient en elle qu'une source de profit. Finalement, la chanson devient un hommage à l'amour véritable pour la terre et ses merveilles, célébré par un chant inspiré.
