Trobarem a faltar el teu somriure.
Dius que ens deixes, t'en vas lluny d'ací.
Però el record de la vall on vas viure
no l'esborra la pols del camí.
El teu front duu la llum de l'albada.
Ja no et solquen dolors ni treballs.
I el vestit amarat de rossada
és vermell com el riu de la vall.
Quan arribis a dalt la carena,
mira el riu i la vall que has deixat
i aquest cor que ara guarda la pena
tan amarga del teu comiat.
From this valley they say you are going
We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
for they say you are taking the sunshine
That has brightened our pathways a while.
Come and sit by my side if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me a -dieu
Just remember the red river valley
And the one who has loved you so true.
For a long time, my darling, I've waited
For the sweet words you never would say
Now at last all my fond hopes have vanished
For they say that you're going away
Then come and sit by my side if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me a -dieu
Just remember the red river valley
And the one who has loved you so true.
