Translation of the song lyrics Satin Doll - The Duke Ellington Orchestra, Johnny Hodges, Benny Carter

Satin Doll (original)

-INTRO-
Se pa sak fèt la
Se ak kiyès li fèt la
Se trayizon
Kou a du, li reponn mwen anba kè m
Si moral mwen pat wo, jodi a m te ka anba tè
Ou te yon zanmi, ti kolòn pam ou mèt kwèm
Wap kouche ak fanm mwen, epi lèw wèm wap relem frèm
Wap bwè byèm, wap plede trip avèm
Lavim te piblik man, ou te konn tout afèm
Pouki se ou?
m pat gen anyen m te konn serew
So m ekri mizik sa poum konseyew
-REF-
Pran swenl li, jere li
Paske li se yon bèl fanm ak yon bèl pitit fi
Pran swen li, jere li
Petèt li te merite yon moun miyò ke mwen
Sak fèm mal la se paske m konnen w pap ret avèl
Wap just bali 2 kou epitou wap brize kèl
Pale de li nan baz ou pou di jan kew trip avèl
San ou pa rann ou kont kew ap mete fen nan karyèl
Kotel pase yo pral di gade vwazin lan
M te fè ou konfyans epi’w al jwe nan ti pati m lan
M santim preske fou genlè m’ap fout pati patim lan — REF-
Pran swenl li, jere li
Paske li se yon bèl fanm ak yon bèl pitit fi
Pran swen li, jere li
Petèt li te merite yon moun miyò ke mwen.

Satin Doll (translation)

-INTRO-
That's not the point
Who he was born with
It is betrayal
Suddenly, he answered me from the bottom of my heart
If my morale was not high, today I could be underground
You were a friend, my little column you believe me
You're sleeping with my wife, and when you see me you're framing
You drink well, you struggle with it
Lavim was public man, you knew all afèm
Why are you?
I didn't have anything I used to keep
So I wrote this music to advise you
-REF-
Take care of it, manage it
Because she is a beautiful woman and a beautiful daughter
Take care of it, manage it
Maybe he deserved someone better than me
The bad thing is because I know you won't stay with me
You just have to be more discriminating with the help you render toward other people
Talk about rubbing salt in my wounds - d'oh!
Without realizing that you are ending your career
Kotel than they will say look at the neighbor
I trusted you and went to play in my little part
I'm almost mad, I'm sorry to blame the party - REF-
Take care of it, manage it
Because she is a beautiful woman and a beautiful daughter
Take care of it, manage it
Maybe he deserved someone better than me.
