The Winding Stream

Johnny Cash

Transposer:

Verse Oh give to me a winding stream It must not be too wide Where waving leaves from maple trees Do meet from either side. The water must be deep enough To float a small canoe With no one else but you. Oh do not disturb my waking dream And the splendor of my winding stream Flower in my canoe her eyes they looked me through. My maiden fair with golden hair is very much like you. Verse The sparkling trout beneath the bank Does leave his hiding place. Kingfisher from the bough above So eager to give chase. The spreading branches overhead The sunrise peeking through When looking dear at you. Oh do not disturb my waking dream And the splendor of my winding stream Flower in my canoe her eyes they looked me through. My maiden fair with golden hair is very much like you.

La chanson évoque le désir d'une paisible promenade sur un cours d'eau sinueux, un véritable havre de tranquillité où la nature est en harmonie. Le narrateur rêve d'une expérience romantique, entouré de beauté, où il partage un moment intime avec une personne lui ressemblant, dans une petite barque. Les images de la faune, comme la truite et le martinet, ajoutent à l'atmosphère douce et mélodieuse de ce tableau idéal, tout en soulignant l'importance de cette connexion avec la nature et l'amour. Dans ce contexte, on ressent un profond besoin d'évasion et de sérénité, loin des tracas du quotidien, cherchant refuge et enchantement dans cette relation simple mais magique.
