Lyrics and translation Danny Kaye - Jenny (Remastered)




Jenny (Remastered)
Jenny (Remastered)
There once was a girl named jenny
Il était une fois une fille nommée Jenny
Whose virtues were varied and many
Dont les vertus étaient variées et nombreuses
Excepting that she was inclined
Sauf qu'elle était encline
Always to make up her mind;
A toujours se décider;
And jenny points a moral
Et Jenny donne une morale
With which you cannot quarrel
Avec laquelle tu ne peux pas te disputer
As you will find
Comme tu le constateras
[Refrain:
[Refrain:
Jenny made her mind up when she was three
Jenny s'est décidée quand elle avait trois ans
She herself was going to trim the christmas tree
Elle allait elle-même décorer le sapin de Noël
Christmas eve she lit the candles tossed the taper away
Le soir de Noël, elle a allumé les bougies et jeté la torche
Little jenny was an orphan on christmas day
La petite Jenny était orpheline le jour de Noël
Poor jenny! bright as a penny!
Pauvre Jenny ! brillante comme un sou !
Her equal would be hard to find
Son égale serait difficile à trouver
She lost one dad and mother
Elle a perdu un père et une mère
A sister and a brother
Une sœur et un frère
But she would make up her mind
Mais elle allait se décider
Jenny made her mind up when she was twelve
Jenny s'est décidée quand elle avait douze ans
That into foreign languages she would delve;
Qu'elle se plongerait dans les langues étrangères;
But at seventeen to vassar it was quite a blow
Mais à dix-sept ans, aller à Vassar était un coup dur
That in twentyseven languages she couldn't say no
Que dans vingt-sept langues, elle ne pouvait pas dire non
Poor jenny! bright as a penny!
Pauvre Jenny ! brillante comme un sou !
Her equal would be hard to find
Son égale serait difficile à trouver
To jenny i'm beholden
Je suis redevable à Jenny
Her heart was big and golden
Son cœur était grand et d'or
But she would make up her mind
Mais elle allait se décider
Jenny made her mind up at twentytwo
Jenny s'est décidée à vingt-deux ans
To get herself a husband was the thing to do
Se trouver un mari était la chose à faire
She got herself all dolled up in her satins and furs
Elle s'est habillée en satins et fourrures
And she got herself a husband but he wasn't hers
Et elle s'est trouvée un mari mais il n'était pas le sien
Poor jenny! bright as a penny!
Pauvre Jenny ! brillante comme un sou !
Her equal would be hard to find
Son égale serait difficile à trouver
Deserved a bed of roses
Elle méritait un lit de roses
But history discloses
Mais l'histoire révèle
That she would make up her mind
Qu'elle allait se décider
Jenny made her mind up at thirtynine
Jenny s'est décidée à trente-neuf ans
She would take a trip to the argentine
Elle ferait un voyage en Argentine
She was only on vacation but the latins agree
Elle n'était que en vacances mais les Latins sont d'accord
Jenny was the one who started the good neighbor policy
Jenny est celle qui a lancé la politique du bon voisinage
Poor jenny! bright as a penny!
Pauvre Jenny ! brillante comme un sou !
Her equal would be hard to find
Son égale serait difficile à trouver
Oh passion doesn't vanish
Oh, la passion ne disparaît pas
In portuguese or spanish
En portugais ou en espagnol
But she would make up her mind
Mais elle allait se décider
Jenny made her mind up at fiftyone
Jenny s'est décidée à cinquante-et-un ans
She would write her memoirs before she was done
Elle allait écrire ses mémoires avant de mourir
The very day her book was published hist'ry relates
Le jour même son livre a été publié, l'histoire relate
There were wives who shot their husbands in some thirtythree states
Il y a eu des femmes qui ont tiré sur leurs maris dans une trentaine d'états
Poor jenny! bright as a penny!
Pauvre Jenny ! brillante comme un sou !
Her equal would be ha
Son égale serait ha
