Bojangles of Harlem - Fred Astairetranslation in French




Bojangles of Harlem
Bojangles d'Harlem
(From "Swing Time")
(De "Swing Time")
Ask anyone up Harlem way
Demande à n'importe qui dans le quartier d'Harlem
Who that guy Bojangles is
Qui est ce type Bojangles
They may not know who's President
Ils ne savent peut-être pas qui est le Président
But ask 'em who Bojangles is.
Mais demande-leur qui est Bojangles.
He's in the most entrancin' business
Il est dans le métier le plus envoûtant
It's what they call the "dancin' business"
C'est ce qu'ils appellent le "métier de la danse"
When there's a beat, up on the street
Quand il y a un rythme, dans la rue
Brother, you go and bet all your dough
Mon frère, tu peux parier tout ton argent
Sister, you know that ain't no one but "Bo."
Ma sœur, tu sais que ce n'est que "Bo".
Oh! Bojangles of Harlem, you dance such hot stuff
Oh ! Bojangles d'Harlem, tu danses tellement bien
Young folks love you in Harlem, they say you've got stuff
Les jeunes gens t'aiment à Harlem, ils disent que tu as du talent
Tough guys rumba out of poolrooms
Les durs à cuire dansent la rumba en sortant des salles de billard
And kids start truckin' out of schoolrooms
Et les enfants commencent à danser en sortant des salles de classe
Oh! Bojangles of Harlem, the whole town's at your heels
Oh ! Bojangles d'Harlem, toute la ville est à tes pieds
Leaving their flats, missing their meals
Quittant leurs appartements, manquant leurs repas
Running like rats, going astray
Courant comme des rats, s'égarrant
Throw those long legs away.
Lance ces longues jambes.
