Our Chalet Song

 






treefoil

French words by Mme. E Droin de Morsier
English version by Betty Askwith
Music by Joseph Bovet

1. High up, high on the mountain,
We've founded our Chalet,
Its sloping roof and wide Shall
shelter us without a care.
And each Girl Scout and Guide
Shall find a welcome there.

2. High up, high on the mountain,
We'll go to our Chalet;
Our simple life is free,
Our hearts are light, our songs are gay,
We ever shall remember
The joys of our Chalet.

3. High up. high on the mountain,
We've founded our Chalet;
And this its dedication
Shall never fail nor be undone:
Each race, each creed, each nation,
Beneath its roof are one.

 

1. Lahaut, sur la montagne,
Il est un grand Chalet;
Son large toit penche
Abritera notre arnitie;
Pour toutes le Eclaireuses,
Il sera le foyer

2. Lahaut, sur la montagne,
Allons au grand Chalet
Gouter la joie du camp
Et du travail fait en chantant,
La vie simple et sereine
Et le recueillement.

3. Lahaut, sur la montagne,
Dans notre grand Chalet,
Autour de l'atre gris
Ou le feu clair petille et rit,
Nous nous sentons unies
Et fortes par l'esprit.
