Cloches de notre dame à paris
Bells of our lady in paris
Qui sonnez les glas et les carillons
Who sound the death knell and chimes
Qui sonnez la joie et la peine
That sound joy and sorrow
Cloches de notre dame à paris
Bells of our lady in paris
Vous êtes vieilles comme le monde
You're as old as the world
Vous êtes pauvres comme la seine
You're as poor as the seine
Vous êtes tendres comme le bronze
You are tender as bronze
Cloches de notre dame à paris
Bells of our lady in paris
Cessez vos glas et vos carillons
Stop your death knell and chimes
Et penchez-vous un peu du côté
And lean a little on the side
D'aubervilliers ou des lilas
Aubervilliers or lilacs
Et chantez le bonheur
And sing happiness
De ceux qui n'en auront jamais
Of those who will never have one
Cloches de notre dame à paris
Bells of our lady in paris
Qui sonnez chaque mort d'évêque
Who ring every bishop's death
Sonnez un jour, une nuit
Ring one day, one night
Au hasard, comme ça, toutes seules
Randomly, like this, all alone
Ça mettra les gens en bas de leur lit
It'll put people down their beds
De leur lit douillet à paris
From their cozy bed to bets
Et ça fera peut-être peur aux imbéciles
And maybe it'll scare the fools
