Lyrics of Pierrot gourmand - Chantal Goya

Pierrot gourmand (original)

Lorsque j'étais petite, ma Grand-Maman à la fête, m’emmenait souvent
Voir les grands manèges qui tournaient contents
Devant les enfants qui couraient en riant.
J'étais fascinée par les confiseries d’un Pierrot au visage ébloui.
Assis au milieu des nougats, des sucettes
Il me regardait et j’en perdais la tête.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, c'était vous, mon prince charmant.
Quand j'étais sage, votre visage
Me souriait souvent, mon Pierrot Gourmand.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, vous êtes toujours un enfant.
Petite fille, vos friandises, je les aimais, Pierrot Gourmand.
Quand il m’arrive de croiser sur mon chemin
Un enfant qui a bien du chagrin
Je lui parle et quand je le prends par la main.
Nous allons ensemble voir mon grand copain.
Dans sa confiserie, il nous tend les bras
Fait jongler sucettes et chocolats
Adieu les chagrins aussitôt qu’on le voit
Il rend le sourire et fait goûter sa joie.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, c'était vous, mon prince charmant.
Quand j'étais sage, votre visage
Me souriait souvent, mon Pierrot Gourmand.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, vous êtes toujours un enfant.
Petite fille, vos friandises, je les aimais, Pierrot Gourmand.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, c'était vous, mon prince charmant
Quand j'étais sage, votre visage
Me souriait souvent, mon Pierrot Gourmand.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, nous sommes toujours des enfants.
Bien qu’on grandisse, tous nos délices
Sont chez vous;
mon Pierrot Gourmand.

(translation)

When I was little, my Grandma at the party, often took me
See the big rides spinning happy
In front of the kids running around laughing.
I was fascinated by the sweets of a Pierrot with a dazzled face.
Sitting among the nougats, lollipops
He looked at me and I lost my mind.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, it was you, my prince charming.
When I was good, your face
Often smiled at me, my Pierrot Gourmand.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, you are still a child.
Little girl, your treats, I loved them, Pierrot Gourmand.
When I happen to cross my path
A child who is very sad
I talk to him and when I take him by the hand.
We are going together to see my big friend.
In his confectionery, he reaches out to us
Juggle lollipops and chocolates
Goodbye sorrows as soon as we see it
He returns the smile and makes taste his joy.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, it was you, my prince charming.
When I was good, your face
Often smiled at me, my Pierrot Gourmand.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, you are still a child.
Little girl, your treats, I loved them, Pierrot Gourmand.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, it was you, my prince charming
When I was good, your face
Often smiled at me, my Pierrot Gourmand.
Pierrot, Pierrot, Pierrot Gourmand, we are still children.
Although we grow, all our delights
Are at home;
my Pierrot Gourmand.
