Tu es laide(original) |
Tu es laide, laide, laide |
Bonne qu'à remplir des seaux! |
Tu es laide, laide, laide |
Heureusement qu’il y a de l’eau! |
Tous les garçons du village |
Me jetaient des cailloux |
Quand j’allais au pâturage |
Ou quand je plantais mes choux |
Ils m’appelaient «la vilaine» |
En me montrant du doigt |
Et j’en avais grande peine |
Lorsqu’ils chantaient derrière moi |
Je courus à la rivière |
Car je me désolais |
Et je vis que dans l’eau claire |
Mon visage pleurait |
Mais survint une hirondelle |
Qui me dit «Très bientôt |
Tu seras enviée des belles |
Qui chantent dans ton dos» |
Un beau jour, sur la grand-route |
Quand j’allais au marché |
Deux garçons ivres sans doute |
Vinrent à me quereller |
Mais soudain, le fils du maire |
Qui passait par ici |
Leur fit mordre la poussière |
Et bien tendrement me dit |
Tu es belle, belle, belle |
Laisse-moi porter ton seau |
Tu es belle, belle, belle |
Pourvu qu’il y ait toujours de l’eau |
(translation) |
You're ugly, ugly, ugly |
Good for filling buckets! |
You're ugly, ugly, ugly |
Luckily there is water! |
All the boys in the village |
threw rocks at me |
When I went to the pasture |
Or when I was planting my cabbage |
They called me "the villain" |
Pointing at me |
And I was very sorry |
When they were singing behind me |
I ran to the river |
'Cause I was sorry |
And I only live in clear water |
my face was crying |
But a swallow came |
Who tells me "Very soon |
You will be envied by the beauties |
Who sing behind your back |
One fine day on the highway |
When I went to the market |
Two boys probably drunk |
Came to quarrel with me |
But suddenly the mayor's son |
Who passed by here |
Made them bite the dust |
And very tenderly said to me |
You are beautiful, beautiful, beautiful |
let me carry your bucket |
You are beautiful, beautiful, beautiful |
May there always be water |
