These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Dans la plaine les baladins
In the plain the wanderers
S'éloignent au long des jardins
Walk away through the gardens
Devant l'huis des auberges grises
In front of the doors of gray inns
Par les villages sans églises
Through villages without churches
Et les enfants s'en vont devant
And the children go ahead
Les autres suivent en rêvant
The others follow while dreaming
Chaque arbre fruitier se résigne
Each fruit tree resigns itself
Quand de très loin ils lui font signe
When from far away they beckon to him
Ils ont des poids ronds ou carrés
They have round or square weights
Des tambours des cerceaux dorés
Drums of golden hoops
L'ours et le singe animaux sages
The bear and the monkey wise animals
Quêtent des sous sur leur passage
Looking for money on their way
