I Cover the Water Front

(original)
J’ai chanté l’amour j’ai chanté why a d’la joie
Sans grand' joie pourtant
J’entonnais donc un p’tit air à pleine voix
L’air fut étouffant
Désormais quels seront donc les pauvres mots
Sur les chansons gaies qu’pour vous on invente
On os’ra placer et sans hésiter trop
Pour ne pas m’tromper moi voilà see’que j’chante
Tra la la la la-la
Tra la la la la-la
Dzim pa poum pa la
Dzim pa poum pa la
Avec un ou deux p’tits hop-là hop-là
Si vous voulez savoir
See’que mon c?
ur pense ce soir
En chantant comme ça
Dzim pa poum pa la
See’est notre espoir
En somme l’important see'était d’recommencer
Qu’importe l’expression
L’essentiel était de pouvoir dispenser
Do rêve en chansons
Un poète aurait trouvé les mots qu’il faut
Qui aurait rimé ses v?
ux l’espérance
Moi mon espoir see’est qu’le ciel redevienne beau
Et qu’on chante en paix dans notre vieille France
Mmmmm… Mmmmm…
Dzi la dzi la dza
Dzi la dzi la dza
Ri ri are
IC’est moi qui fait ça
Ri ri ri ri ri rir
Pa-la-pa pa-la-pa pa-la-pa
Pa pa pa pa-pa-pa
Oooh palapala pa la
Ah-ah
Ce que joue comme ça cet orchestre là
See’est notre espoir
(translation)
I sang love, I sang why a d'la joie
Without much joy, however
So I was singing a little tune at the top of my voice
The air was suffocating
From now on what will be the poor words
On the happy songs that we invent for you
We dare to place and without hesitating too much
So as not to deceive me, here is what I sing
Tra la la la la la la
Tra la la la la la la
Dzim pa poum pa la
Dzim pa poum pa la
With one or two little hop-there hop-there
If you want to know
See'that my c?
ur think tonight
Singing like this
Dzim pa poum pa la
See's our hope
In short, the important thing was to start over
whatever the expression
The main thing was to be able to dispense
Do dream in songs
A poet would have found the right words
Who would have rhymed his v's?
see hope
Me, my hope is that the sky becomes beautiful again
And let us sing in peace in our old France
Mmmmm... Mmmmm...
Dzi la dzi la dza
Dzi la dzi la dza
Laugh laugh are
I'm the one doing that
ri ri ri ri ri ri
Pa-la-pa pa-la-pa pa-la-pa
Dad dad dad dad dad
Oooh palapala pa la
Ah-ah
What that orchestra plays like that
See's our hope
