Lyrics and translation Alma Cogan - Chee-Oo Chee (Sang the Little Bird)

Chee-Oo Chee (Sang the Little Bird)

Chee-Oo Chee (Le petit oiseau chantait)

Once on a tree top tall a little bird

Un jour, sur un arbre haut perché, un petit oiseau

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

Sang out the sweetest song I ever heard

Chantait la plus douce mélodie que j'aie jamais entendue

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

(He sang to me so merrily)

(Il me chantait si gaiement)

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

(The little birdie on the tree)

(Le petit oiseau sur l'arbre)

Life's such a lovely thing it seemed to say

La vie est si belle, il semblait dire

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

If you'd only sing your cares away

Si seulement tu chantais tes soucis

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

Chee chee-oo chee so merrily it went along

Chee chee-oo chee, si gaiement il chantait

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

Chee chee-oo chee so happily his little song

Chee chee-oo chee, si joyeusement sa petite chanson

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

And so (and so) I sing (I sing)

Et donc (et donc) je chante (je chante)

Chee chee-oo chee the happy happy little thing

Chee chee-oo chee, la petite chose joyeuse, joyeuse

If you (if you) feel blue (feel blue)

Si tu (si tu) te sens triste (te sens triste)

Sing chee chee-oo chee and you can be as happy too

Chante chee chee-oo chee et tu peux être aussi heureux

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

Sing this happy little song

Chante cette petite chanson joyeuse

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

Chee chee-oo chee

Chee chee-oo chee it sang to me so merrily

Chee chee-oo chee, il me chantait si gaiement

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

Chee chee-oo chee the little birdie on the tree

Chee chee-oo chee, le petit oiseau sur l'arbre

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

(If you feel blue)

(Si tu te sens triste)

Sing chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee and you can be as happy too

Chante chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee et tu peux être aussi heureux

(Chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee)

Sing this happy little song

Chante cette petite chanson joyeuse

(Sing chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee and you can be as happy as can be)

(Chante chee chee-oo chee, chee chee-oo chee et tu peux être aussi heureux que possible)
