Lyrics and translation Lonnie Donegan - Lorelei




Lorelei
Lorelei
I kissed a girl in Burma, in a town they called Rangoon
J'ai embrassé une fille en Birmanie, dans une ville appelée Rangoon
Her lips were hot as curry in the heat of the afternoon
Ses lèvres étaient chaudes comme le curry dans la chaleur de l'après-midi
Her kisses were so spicy I thought my lips would fry
Ses baisers étaient si épicés que j'ai cru que mes lèvres allaient brûler
But I never knew what kissing was till I kissed Lorelei
Mais je n'ai jamais su ce qu'était embrasser avant d'embrasser Lorelei
Loerelei, Lorelei, Lorelei
Lorelei, Lorelei, Lorelei
I kissed a girl in Africa, I only had a hope (?)
J'ai embrassé une fille en Afrique, j'avais juste un espoir (?)
And every time I kissed her my ears would turn to soap
Et à chaque fois que je l'embrassais, mes oreilles se transformaient en savon
She kissed me oceans deeply and she kissed me mountains high
Elle m'a embrassé profondément comme les océans et elle m'a embrassé haut comme les montagnes
But I never knew what kissing was till I kissed Lorelei
Mais je n'ai jamais su ce qu'était embrasser avant d'embrasser Lorelei
Loerelei, Lorelei, Lorelei
Lorelei, Lorelei, Lorelei
I kissed a girl in London town, right underneath Big Ben
J'ai embrassé une fille à Londres, juste sous Big Ben
And as our lips were touching the clock was striking ten
Et alors que nos lèvres se touchaient, l'horloge sonnait dix heures
She kissed me there in April and it lasted till July
Elle m'a embrassé en avril et ça a duré jusqu'en juillet
But I never knew what kissing was till I kissed Lorelei
Mais je n'ai jamais su ce qu'était embrasser avant d'embrasser Lorelei
Loerelei, Lorelei, Lorelei
Lorelei, Lorelei, Lorelei
I kissed a girl in the Holy Land in the Sea of Galilee
J'ai embrassé une fille en Terre Sainte, dans la mer de Galilée
She fed me dates and olives underneath a lemon tree
Elle m'a donné des dattes et des olives sous un citronnier
She kissed me till my sunburnt lips were parched and dry
Elle m'a embrassé jusqu'à ce que mes lèvres brûlées par le soleil soient sèches et gercées
But I never knew what kissing was till I kissed Lorelei
Mais je n'ai jamais su ce qu'était embrasser avant d'embrasser Lorelei
Loerelei, Lorelei, Lorelei
Lorelei, Lorelei, Lorelei
You think that I'm just lying and you think she don't exist
Tu penses que je mens et tu penses qu'elle n'existe pas
But if she kissed you boy you'd know that you'd been kissed
Mais si elle t'embrassait mon garçon, tu saurais que tu as été embrassé
For kissing is her speciality, her one and only dish
Car embrasser est sa spécialité, son seul et unique plat
For Lorelei's a mermaid, half a woman, half a fish
Car Lorelei est une sirène, moitié femme, moitié poisson
Lorelei, Lorelei, Lorelei
Lorelei, Lorelei, Lorelei
