These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Connais-tu l'histoire que me racontait ma nounou?
Do you know the story my nanny told me?
C'est une belle histoire que j'écoutais sur ses genoux
It's a beautiful story that I listened to on his knees
Si le cœur t'en dit, ma jolie écoute-moi
If the heart tells you, my pretty listen to me
Je vais te la dire à mi-voix
I'll tell you in a low voice
L'était une fille douce et tendre comme toi
Was a sweet and tender girl like you
Tout aussi gentille se promenait dans les bois
Just as nice was walking in the woods
Et voilà soudain qu'en chemin elle aperçoit
And suddenly on the way she sees
Le grand méchant loup aux abois
The big bad wolf at bay
Hou, hou, hou, hou
Boo, hoo, hoo, hoo
Cha cha cha du loup
Cha cha cha of the wolf
Hou, hou, hou, hou
Boo, hoo, hoo, hoo
Cha cha cha du loup
Cha cha cha of the wolf
Hou, hou, hou, hou
Boo, hoo, hoo, hoo
Cha cha cha du loup
Cha cha cha of the wolf
Tu es encore à l'âge où les filles ont peur de nous
You're still at the age where girls are afraid of us
Tu es bien trop sage pour venir sur mes genoux
You are far too wise to come on my knees
Mais je t'aime bien, ne crains rien, approche-toi
But I like you, don't be afraid, come closer
Je ne te mangerai pas
I won't eat you
Ne sois pas cruelle, viens dans mes bras ma jolie
Don't be cruel, come into my arms my pretty
Viens plus près ma belle et ne tremble pas ainsi
Come closer my dear and don't tremble like this
Je ne te ferai aucun mal, je ne suis pas
I won't hurt you, I'm not
Le grand méchant loup aux abois
The big bad wolf at bay
Hou, hou, hou, hou
Boo, hoo, hoo, hoo
Cha cha cha du loup
Cha cha cha of the wolf
Hou, hou, hou, hou
Boo, hoo, hoo, hoo
Cha cha cha du loup
Cha cha cha of the wolf
Hou, hou, hou, hou
Boo, hoo, hoo, hoo
Cha cha cha du loup
Cha cha cha of the wolf
