Translation of the song lyrics C'est long long long - Dick Rivers

C'est long long long (original)

Chacun de nous dans sa vie
A presque toujours un dur moment
Qui paraît ne jamais finir
Alors ce jour-là
Oh, nous semble long, long, long, long
Oh, nous semble long, long, long, long
Le vieux Jim qui est mon ami
M’a dit avoir souffert de mille maux
Lui qui ne buvait que du whisky
Tout un jour a dû boire de l’eau
Oh, c'était long, long, long, long
Oh, c'était long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long
Je connais certains gars
Qui depuis plus de vingt ans n’oublient pas
Le jour d’un fameux débarquement
Pour eux c'était ce jour-là le plus long
Oh, c'était long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long
Oh, et c'était long, long, long, long
Ce soir c’est moi qui grâce à toi
Connais de ce fameux jour les tourments
En robe blanche tu n’en finis pas
De dire au revoir à papa et à maman
Tout ça c’est long, long, long, long
Oh oui !
Oh, tout ça c’est long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long
Oh, tout ça c’est long, long, long, long
Oh, tout ça c’est long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long
Oh, tout ça c’est long, long, long, long

(translation)

Each of us in his life
Almost always a hard time
that never seems to end
So that day
Oh, we seem long, long, long, long
Oh, we seem long, long, long, long
Old Jim who is my friend
Told me he suffered from a thousand ailments
He who only drank whiskey
A whole day had to drink water
Oh, it was long, long, long, long
Oh, it was long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long
I know some guys
Who for more than twenty years do not forget
The day of a famous landing
For them that was the longest day
Oh, it was long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long
Oh, and it was long, long, long, long
Tonight it's me who thanks to you
Know of this famous day the torments
In a white dress you never end
To say goodbye to mom and dad
It's all long, long, long, long
Oh yes !
Oh, it's all long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long
Oh, it's all long, long, long, long
Oh, it's all long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long
Oh, it's all long, long, long, long
