Coupeurs de cannes

(original)
C’est une mélodie africaine et maure
Métissée d’indien que sais-je encore
Une histoire d’amour qui se finit mal a l'époque du carnaval
Noir chanson du désert sur les voleurs de femmes
Mélodie millénaire de vengeances et de drames
Danse encore, danse encore
Poings rapides et souffle court
Danse encore, danse encore
Danse au milieu des vautours
La guitare chantait le couteau brillait
Le ciel était sombre aux alentours
La chanson d’amour
La chanson de guerre se mélangeaient tour à tour
Ces deux ombres dansaient dans la nuit de velours
Ces deux lames tournaient on voyait les contours
Danse encore, danse encore
Poings rapides et souffle court
Danse encore, danse encore
Ce sont des histoires d’amour
Guitares dépouillées
Belle voix cassées
Sombre vendetta faits-divers
Des histoires d’amour qui finissent mal au milieu du carnaval
Des légendes indiennes des christs sans visage
Des refrains se promènent de village en village
Ces deux ombres qui dansent sous la nuit de velours
Ont toujours la cadence au milieu des vautours
Danse encore, danse encore
Poings rapides et souffle court
Danse encore, danse encore
Ce sont des histoires d’amour
Danse encore, danse encore
Poings rapides et souffle court
Danse encore, danse encore
Danse au milieu des vautours
Danse encore, danse encore
Poings rapides et souffle court
Danse encore, danse encore
Ce sont des histoires d’amour
Danse encore, danse encore
Poings rapides et souffle court
(translation)
It's an African and Moorish melody
Mixed Indian what do I know
A love story that ends badly at carnival time
Black desert song about thieves of women
Age-old melody of revenge and drama
Dance again, dance again
Quick Fists and Short Breath
Dance again, dance again
Dance among the vultures
The guitar sang the knife shone
The sky was dark around
The love song
The war song was blending in turn
These two shadows were dancing in the velvet night
These two blades were spinning you could see the outlines
Dance again, dance again
Quick Fists and Short Breath
Dance again, dance again
These are love stories
Stripped guitars
beautiful broken voice
Dark vendetta miscellaneous
Love stories that end badly in the middle of carnival
Indian legends of faceless christs
Choruses wander from village to village
These two shadows that dance under the velvet night
Always have the cadence in the middle of the vultures
Dance again, dance again
Quick Fists and Short Breath
Dance again, dance again
These are love stories
Dance again, dance again
Quick Fists and Short Breath
Dance again, dance again
Dance among the vultures
Dance again, dance again
Quick Fists and Short Breath
Dance again, dance again
These are love stories
Dance again, dance again
Quick Fists and Short Breath
