Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song Chalouper , by - Gaël Faye. Chalouper(original) |
| Un jour viendra le corps tassé |
| Les parchemins sur nos visages |
| Ceux qui racontent la vie passée |
| Tous les succès et les naufrages |
| Et nos mains qui tremblent au vent |
| Comme des biguines au pas légers |
| Continueront de battre le temps |
| Sous des soleils endimanchés |
| Un jour viendra, on fera vieux os |
| Des bégonias sur le balcon |
| Un petit air de calypso |
| Photos sépias dans le salon |
| Malgré la vie le temps passé |
| Malgré la jeunesse fatiguée |
| Personne ne pourra empêcher |
| Nos corps usés de chalouper |
| Chalouper, chalouper |
| Chalouper, chalouper |
| Chalouper, chalouper |
| Avant qu’le printemps s’fasse automne |
| Que l’on s'éloigne de la rive |
| On scratchera du gramophone |
| Quelques ritournelles caraïbes |
| On s'épuisera sur le dancefloor |
| En de petits pas économes |
| Tant que sera levé le store |
| Nos palpitants s’ront métronomes |
| Elles me reviennent les années folles |
| Quand on mourrait seulement de rire |
| Oh, rappelle-toi du Malecón |
| Le clapotis de nos souvenirs |
| Un jour viendra cette ritournelle |
| Quand ma voix se s’ra envolée |
| Je te supplie en souvenir d’elle |
| De continuer à chalouper |
| Chalouper, chalouper |
| Chalouper, chalouper |
| Chalouper, chalouper |
| Oh fais-moi tourner sous mes pas |
| Glissent les années, toi et moi |
| Jusqu’au bout d’aimer, on pourra |
| Chalouper, chalouper, chalouper |
| (translation) |
| One day will come the packed body |
| The scrolls on our faces |
| Those who tell the past life |
| All successes and shipwrecks |
| And our hands shaking in the wind |
| Like light-stepped beguines |
| Will keep beating time |
| Under sunlit suns |
| One day will come, we will grow old |
| Begonias on the balcony |
| A little tune of calypso |
| Sepia photos in the living room |
| Despite life the time passed |
| Despite the tired youth |
| No one can prevent |
| Our bodies worn out from swaying |
| To sway, to sway |
| To sway, to sway |
| To sway, to sway |
| Before spring becomes autumn |
| Let's get away from the shore |
| We'll be scratching the gramophone |
| A few Caribbean songs |
| We'll wear out on the dancefloor |
| In small, economical steps |
| As long as the blind is up |
| Our thrillers will be metronomes |
| They remind me of the Roaring Twenties |
| When we would only die of laughter |
| Oh, remember the Malecón |
| The lapping of our memories |
| One day will come this refrain |
| When my voice is gone |
| I beg you in remembrance of her |
| To keep swaying |
| To sway, to sway |
| To sway, to sway |
| To sway, to sway |
| Oh turn me around |
| Slip away the years, you and me |
| To the end of loving, we can |
| Sway, sway, sway |
