L'Amérique [Yellow River [French Version]] [English translation]

My friends, I have to leave

I only have to throw away my keys

Because she's been waiting for me since I was born

America

I'm abandoning on my way

So many things I used to like

It begins by a bit of sorrow

America

America, America, I want to have it and I will

America, America, if it's a dream I'll know it

All the train's whistles, all the boat's sirens

Sang me a hundred times Eldorado's song

Of America

My friends, I'm telling you farewell

Losing you should make me cry a bit

Excuse me if in my eyes there's only

America

I'll come back, I don't know when

Sewed of gold and embroidered of silver

Or without a penny, but richer than before

Of America

America, America, I want to have it and I will

America, America, if it's a dream I'll know it

All the train's whistles, all the boat's sirens

Sang me a hundred times Eldorado's song

Of America

America, America, if it's a dream, I'll dream

America, America, if it's a dream, I want to dream
