La Jonque (original)La Jonque (translation)
Elle se fend plus d’une robe longue She splits more than one long dress
Sur le côté On the side
La petite fille de Susie Wong Susie Wong's Granddaughter
Voit sa vie débridée Sees his life unbridled
Des Docs à la place des tongs Docs instead of flip flops
Brûlent les dragons de papier Burn the paper dragons
Qu’elle glisse sous sa jonque Let her slip under her junk
Fond de cour escalier B Backyard Staircase B
J’aimerais dormir sur ses nattes I would like to sleep on his mats
A l’abri des paravents Sheltered by screens
Lire mon avenir dans ses cartes Read my future in his cards
Tant qu’il est encore temps While there is still time
Le soir au fond de sa jonque The evening at the bottom of his junk
J’oublierai ma honte I will forget my shame
J’ai le coeur délicat I have a delicate heart
Je sais comment il bat I know how it beats
J’aimerais la mettre sur la paille I would like to put her on the straw
Ca nous changerait des trottoirs It would change us from sidewalks
Où je la vois qui s'éloigne Where I see her walking away
Le soir au fond des dortoirs Evening at the back of the dormitories
J’irais dans sa jonque I would go in his junk
J’oublierai ma honte I will forget my shame
J’ai le coeur délicat I have a delicate heart
Je sais comment il bat I know how it beats
Je voudrais l’oublier sa jonque I would like to forget his junk
Et ses nouveaux habitués And its new regulars
Ceux qu’elle remonte Those she goes up
Fond de cour escalier B Backyard Staircase B
Les après-midi de manque Lack of afternoons
De tonkinoise à plein temps Full-Time Tonkinese
Elle se fend plus d’une robe longue She splits more than one long dress
Sur le côté On the side
La petite fille de Susie Wong Susie Wong's Granddaughter
Voit sa vie débridée.Sees his life unbridled.
