Lyrics and translation Peggy Lee - Chi-Baba, Chi-Baba (My Bambino Go to Sleep) [Remastered]
Many
a
year
ago
in
old
Sorrento
Il
y
a
bien
des
années
dans
le
vieux
Sorrente
A
certain
ditty
was
quite
the
thing
Une
certaine
ritournelle
était
à
la
mode
Whenever
a
mother
rocked
her
baby
in
Sorrento
Chaque
fois
qu'une
mère
berçait
son
bébé
à
Sorrente
This
little
ditty
she
used
to
sing:
Elle
chantait
cette
petite
ritournelle
:
Chi-baba,
chi-baba,

ready
to
say
"goodnight"
Toutes
les

prêtes
à

Close
your

will
hold
you

Ferme

yeux
endormis,

te
tiendra
fermement
While

Tandis

berceuse
