Le ros lulu (original)Le ros lulu (translation)
Dans Paris tout bleu, sous la lune, un soir de juin In Paris all blue, under the moon, one evening in June
Elle marchait en somnambule, les yeux lointains She was sleepwalking, eyes far away
Mais ni Paris bleu ni la lune n’existaient pour elle, ce soir-là But neither blue Paris nor the moon existed for her that night
Chagrin d’amour ou peur de vivre?Heartache or scared to live?
Elle avait seize ans She was sixteen
Lui, il flânait en solitaire, le gros Lulu Him, he strolled alone, the fat Lulu
Un peu rond et la cinquantaine peut-être plus A little plump and 50s maybe older
Il serait passé sans rien dire mais quelque chose l’arrêta He would have passed without saying anything but something stopped him
Ce désespoir à la dérive, il l’aborda This drifting despair he approached
Devant son air triste, il parla, des mots gentils At her sad look, he spoke, kind words
Elle ne l'écouta même pas mais le suivit She didn't even listen to him but followed him
Elle aurait bien suivi le diable, alors pourquoi pas celui-là She would have followed the devil, so why not this one
Elle lui trouva l’air d’un bon diable, il l’amena She thought he looked like a good devil, he brought her
L’avait une maison de riche, le gros Lulu Had him a rich house, fat Lulu
Il y amena cette biche aux yeux perdus He brought that doe with lost eyes
Elle ne raconta pas sa vie, il ne la lui demanda pas She didn't tell her life story, he didn't ask her
Mais comme on fait pour une reine, il l’installa But like a queen, he installed her
Pour la guérir, il l’entoura de mille soins To heal her, he surrounded her with a thousand cares
Il cueillit les plus belles roses de son jardin He picked the most beautiful roses from his garden
Pour lui redonner des sourires, il devint poète et ami To give her smiles, he became a poet and a friend
Il inventa des tours de pitre, elle sourit He invented clown tricks, she smiled
Mais les bourgeois et les duchesses, les relations But the bourgeois and the duchesses, the relations
À leur façon chuchotèrent dans les salons In their own way whispered in the salons
Elles avaient beau dire et médire, le gros Lulu, il savait bien No matter how much they said and slandered, fat Lulu, he knew well
Que même en rêve il ne posa jamais la main That even in dreams he never put his hand down
Jamais la main sur sa princesse qu’avait seize ans Never laying hands on his sixteen-year-old princess
Et ceux qui étaient un peu plus sages ou moins méchants And those who were a little wiser or less wicked
Se demandaient «Qu'est-ce qui brille chez le gros Lulu transformé Were wondering "What's shining about fat Lulu transformed
Et qu’est-ce qui lie donc cette biche à ce sanglier ?» And what binds this doe to this boar?"
À seize ans, les désespoirs passent et simplement At sixteen, the despair passes and just
Elle le quitta sans un mot de remerciement She left him without a word of thanks
Lui, il ne la crut pas ingrate, les mots ça sert peu, voyez-vous He didn't think she was ungrateful, words are of little use, you see
Dans un sourire ils se quittèrent et voilà tout With a smile they parted and that was it
Il y perdait comme sa vie, le gros Lulu He was losing his life, big Lulu
Mais c’est après son départ qu’il s’en aperçut But it was after his departure that he noticed it
Elle, elle y gagna une chose comme un talisman et bien plus She, she won such a thing as a talisman and more
Pouvoir penser, quand tout est moche, au gros LuluTo be able to think, when everything is ugly, of fat Lulu
