Les duex copains (original)Les duex copains (translation)
Y avait une fois deux bons copains There were once two good friends
Poil dans la main, rien dans la poche Hair in the hand, nothing in the pocket
Mais des tas d’choses dans la caboche But lots of things in the noggin
Qui s’en allaient par les chemins Who went by the roads
Y avait un p’tit et puis un grand There was a little one and then a big one
Le p’tit avait l’intelligence The little one had the intelligence
Le grand il avait la puissance The great he had the power
Dans les coups durs, y s’mettait d’vant In the hard knocks, he put himself forward
Et tous les deux And both
Le p’tit et l’grand The small and the big
Le coeur joyeux allaient chantant Joyful hearts went singing
Bras d’ssus bras d’ssous comme des fous Arms above arms below like crazy
Tralalala, on s’en va Tralalala, we're leaving
Mais un jour on reviendra But one day we'll be back
On aura beaucoup bu We will have drunk a lot
Et beaucoup retenu And held back a lot
Rien qu’avec nos souv’nirs Just with our memories
On pourra s’enrichir We can get rich
Tralalala, on s’en va Tralalala, we're leaving
Mais un jour on reviendra But one day we'll be back
Ils eurent soif, ils eurent faim They were thirsty, they were hungry
Crev?Burst?
rent de froid, firent naufrage cold, shipwrecked
S’remplirent la t?They filled the t?
te d’un tas d’mirages you of a heap of mirages
S’coll?rent des ampoules plein les mains Hands full of blisters stick together
Ils s’en allaient tout droit d’vant eux They were going straight ahead
Passant de l’Europe en Afrique Passing from Europe to Africa
Et puis de l?And then from there
en Am?at Am?
rique risk
Les v’la un jour rev’nus chez eux Here they come back home one day
Et tous les deux And both
Le p’tit et l’grand The small and the big
Le coeur joyeux allaient chantant Joyful hearts went singing
Bras d’ssus bras d’ssous comme des fous Arms above arms below like crazy
Tralalala, nous voila Tralalala, here we come
C’est assez roul?Is it bad enough?
comme?as?

Approchez, les amis Come closer, friends
On a vu du pays We've seen the country
Rien qu’avec nos souv’nirs Just with our memories
On va vous enrichir We will make you rich
Tralalala, nous voila Tralalala, here we come
C’est assez roul?Is it bad enough?

Ils s’croyaient des types merveilleux They thought they were marvelous types
Parce qu’ils savaient des tas d’histoires Because they knew lots of stories
Mais personne ne voulait les croire But no one would believe them
On n’les prenait pas au s?We didn't take them at face value?
rieux laughing
Et, d?And D?
go?t?s, les deux copains tastes, the two friends
Froid dans le coeur, rien dans la poche Cold in the heart, nothing in the pocket
Mais des tas d’choses dans la caboche But lots of things in the noggin
Sont repartis par les chemins Have left by the paths
Et tous les deux And both
Le p’tit et l’grand The small and the big
Pleurs dans les yeux, s’en vont gueulant Tears in the eyes, go away yelling
Bras d’ssus bras d’ssous «bah, on s’en fout !» Arm in arm arm in arm “bah, who cares!”
Tralalala, on s’en va Tralalala, we're leaving
Ces gens-l?These people?
n’nous comprennent pas don't understand us
Y travaillent jusqu’au bout Work it to the end
Pour finir dans un trou To end up in a hole
Sans rien?Without anything?
se raconter telling
Quand y s’ront d’l’autre c?When will there be the other c?
t? you
Tralalala, on s’en va Tralalala, we're leaving
V’la notre soleil qui brille l?-bas Here is our sun that shines over there
Tralalala lalalalaTralalala lalalala
