Prince En Avignon (original)Prince En Avignon (translation)
Il était un prince en Avignon He was a prince in Avignon
Sans royaume, sans château, ni donjon Without a kingdom, without a castle, or a dungeon
Là-bas tout au fond de la province Down there deep in the province
Il était un prince He was a prince
Et l’enfant que j'étais And the child that I was
Cueillait pour lui bien des roses Picked many roses for him
En ce temps le bonheur était peu de choses In those days happiness was a small thing
Il était un prince en Avignon He was a prince in Avignon
Sans royaume, sans château, ni donjon Without a kingdom, without a castle, or a dungeon
Mais ces mots nous chantaient les campagnes But these words sang to us of the countryside
Des grands rois d’Espagne great kings of Spain
Quand le soir descendait When the evening fell
On devenait spectateurs We became spectators
Et la ville avec lui n'était plus qu’un coeur And the city with him was but a heart
Il nous emportait dans son empire He took us into his empire
Nous attendrissait avec un sourire Tenderized us with a smile
Combien je l’aimais, combien je rêvais How much I loved him, how much I dreamed
Et puis vers ma ville je m’en retournais And then to my city I was going back
Il était un prince en Avignon He was a prince in Avignon
Sans royaume, sans château ni donjon Without a kingdom, without a castle or a dungeon
Là-bas tout au fond de la province Down there deep in the province
Il était un prince He was a prince
Un princeA prince
