Dans le paris de notre-dame
In Our Lady's Bet
De notre-dame de paris
From our-lady of bets
Y a un clochard qu'en a plein le dos
There's a tramp that's full of it
De porter notre-dame sur son dos
To carry our lady on her back
Il se prend pour quasimodo
He thinks he's almost like
Regarde en l'air, la vie qui grouille
Look in the air, the life that is teeming
Au lieu de faire des ronds dans l'eau
Instead of making rounds in the water
Tu peux pas vivre comme une grenouille
You can't live like a frog
Moiti sur terre, moiti sur l'eau
Moisti on earth, half on water
Moi, je prfre rester l-haut
I prefer to stay up there
Dans le jardin de notre-dame
In our lady's garden
O l'on se fait de bons amis
O we make good friends
Y a qu' se promener chaque matin
It's just walking around every morning
Un peu de mas au creux des mains
A little mas in the palms of his hands
Les pigeons, moi, je les aime bien
Pigeons, I like them
Les pniches
The pniches
Se fichent
Don't care
Des pigeons de la cit
Cit pigeons
Golettes
Golettes
Mouettes
Seagulls
Elles n'ont que a dans l'ide
They have only a in the idea
Oui, mais autour de notre-dame
Yes, but around our lady
Y a des voyages bon march
There are cheap trips
Et ces petits coins o le bonheur
And those little corners o happiness
Empche les maisons de pousser
Prevents houses from pushing
On l'appelle 'march aux fleurs'
It is called 'flower market'
Henri quatre
Henry Four
Verdtre
Verdtre
Aime sous son verre de gris
Likes under his glass of gray
La vieille flche
The old arrow
Qui lche
Who's eding
Le plafond gris de paris
The grey betting ceiling
Et toi, sous le pont de notre-dame
And you, under our lady's bridge
Regarde en l'air, tu comprendras
Look up, you'll understand
Que si tout le monde faisait comme toi
That if everyone did what you did
Dans ton pince y aurait de la pluie
In your pliers there would be rain
Mme les ponts, a se construit
Mrs. Bridges, was built
Car pour aller notre-dame
For to go our lady
De notre-dame jusqu' paris
From our lady to bets
Il a bien fallu se mettre au boulot
We had to get to work
Et porter de pierres sur son dos
And carry stones on his back
Pour passer par-dessus l'eau
To go over the water
Voil pourquoi paris s'enroule
That's why betting rolls
S'enroule comme un escargot
Wraps like a snail
Pourquoi la terre s'est mise en boule
Why the earth got into a ball
Autour des cloches du parvis
Around the bells of the forecourt
De notre-dame de paris
From our-lady of bets
