Translation
Bilingual
Now what can he want
With a woman like her?
Blacker than coal and low as dirt
He could have the world
But takes a peasant!
Perhaps his brain was hurt!
Look how she holds him
And touches and attends him
The believes
She can make him well
And she has him in a spell.
You are my charm. Without you, I could never
be whole again.
I will never leave you, Daniel.
ย
Now, what do you make
Of a peasant like her?
Putting on airs without a doubt
When the boy is well
And does not need her
How soon he'll throw her out.
Soon, I'll be dancing!
But for now, walk slowly, Daniel.
The you must wlak even more slowly,
Ti Moune.
TWhy?
So that I can catch you!
Daniel!
Papa.
How long do you think
You'll be playing this game?
This is no game.
Surely you can't believe it's real?
I'm in love with Ti Moune!
You are not the first
To want a peasant
I, too, know their appeal
But you are my son
You'll do what must be done
No matter what you feel
ย
I know what he sees
In a peasant like her
Probably makes him rise like yeast
Well, the girl may think
She's very clever
The boy may keep her here forever
But I can tell you this: They'll never
Stand before a priest!
