N’Y VA PAS, MANUEL (original)N’Y VA PAS, MANUEL (translation)
Il n’avait que dix ans mais il était déjà He was only ten years old but he was already
Bagarreur, insolent, plein de violence. Brawling, insolent, full of violence.
Il voulait être un dur tout comme au cinéma He wanted to be tough just like in the movies
Et partout, c’est lui qui menait la danse. And everywhere, he was the one leading the dance.
Il passait ses journées à courir dans les rues He spent his days running the streets
Ne pensant qu'à se battre, qu'à cogner… Thinking only of fighting, only of punching...
Sa mère désespérée et qui n’en pouvait plus Her desperate and exhausted mother
Passait tout son temps à supplier: Spent all his time begging:
«N'y vas pas, Manuel, n’y vas pas. "Don't go, Manuel, don't go.
'y a des choses dans la vie qu’on ne fait pas there are things in life you don't do
Et plus tard, tu le regretteras. And later you will regret it.
N’y vas pas!Do not go!
N’y vas pas! Do not go!
Quand enfin un jour tu comprendras When at last one day you will understand
Que vraiment t’as eu tort de faire ça You were really wrong to do that
Il sera bien trop tard, n’y vas pas. It will be far too late, don't go.
Manuel, n’y vas pas.» Manuel, don't go."
C’est maintenant un monsieur qui n’aime pas les agents. He is now a gentleman who does not like agents.
Il veut pas qu’on se mêle de ses affaires. He doesn't want anyone to meddle in his business.
Pour avoir la belle vie, il faut beaucoup d’argent To have the good life, you need a lot of money
Et pour ça, 'y pas trente-six manières. And for that, there are not thirty-six ways.
Le travail, ça l’ennuie et puis, c’est fatiguant. Work bores him and then it's tiring.
Il se débrouille très bien sans trop d’effort. He does very well without too much effort.
Sa femme qu’il gâte beaucoup mais qui n’en demande pas tant His wife whom he spoils a lot but who does not ask for so much
Lui répète tous les soirs quand il sort: Repeats to him every night when he goes out:
«N'y vas pas, Manuel, n’y vas pas. "Don't go, Manuel, don't go.
'y a des choses dans la vie qu’on ne fait pas there are things in life you don't do
Et plus tard, tu le regretteras And later you will regret it
N’y vas pas!Do not go!
N’y vas pas! Do not go!
Quand enfin un jour tu comprendras When at last one day you will understand
Que vraiment t’as eu tort de faire ça You were really wrong to do that
Il sera bien trop tard, n’y vas pas. It will be far too late, don't go.
Manuel, n’y vas pas.» Manuel, don't go."
Mais de tous leurs sermons, Manuel se fout bien. But of all their sermons, Manuel doesn't give a damn.
Ce soir, il fait un coup magnifique. Tonight he does a great job.
Ce sera le dernier car, dès demain matin It will be the last bus, from tomorrow morning
Il va faire peau neuve en Amérique. It's going to get a makeover in America.
D’un pas souple et léger il s’en va tranquillement With a supple and light step he goes quietly
Vers l’endroit où ils ont rendez-vous. To where they are meeting.
Tout est calme et pourtant, il entend vaguement All is calm and yet he vaguely hears
Une voix qui vient on ne sait d’où: A voice that comes from who knows where:
«N'y vas pas, Manuel, n’y vas pas… "Don't go, Manuel, don't go...
'y des choses dans la vie qu’on ne fait pas… 'There are things in life you don't do...
Et plus tard, tu le regretteras… And later you will regret it...
N’y vas pas!Do not go!
N’y vas pas! Do not go!
Attention, Manuel, sois prudent!Watch out, Manuel, be careful!
Attention Attention
Manuel, n’y vas pas… Manuel, don't go...
Manuel, ATTENTION MA-NU-EL!!! Manual, ATTENTION MA-NU-EL!!!
…ohhh… Manuel…»…ohhh… Manual…”
