Chi-Baba, Chi-Baba - Perry Comotranslation in French

Chi-Baba, Chi-Baba

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 chanson était très 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

Cette petite chanson, elle chantait

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

Enjilava kooka la goomba

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

My bambino go to sleep

Mon bambino, va dormir

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

Enjilava kooka la goomba

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

My bambino go to sleep

Mon bambino, va dormir

All the stars are in the skies ready to say "good night"

Toutes les étoiles sont dans le ciel, prêtes à dire "bonne nuit"

Can't you see your doll is sleepy, too?

Ne vois-tu pas que ta poupée a sommeil aussi ?

Close your drowsy little eyes, mama will hold you tight

Ferme tes petits yeux endormis, maman te tiendra bien serré

While she sings a lullaby to you

Pendant qu'elle te chante une berceuse

Oh, chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

Enjilava kooka la goomba

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

My bambino go to sleep

Mon bambino, va dormir

(Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua, enjilava)

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chi-baba

Enjilava kooka la goomba (la goomba)

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

My bambino go to sleep

Mon bambino, va dormir

(Chi, chi, chi-baba)

Chi, chi, chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

Enjilava kooka la goomba (la goomba)

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

My bambino go to sleep

Mon bambino, va dormir

(All the stars are in the skies ready to say "good night, good night")

(Toutes les étoiles sont dans le ciel, prêtes à dire "bonne nuit, bonne nuit")

(Can't you see your doll is sleepy, too?)

(Ne vois-tu pas que ta poupée a sommeil aussi ?)

(Close your drowsy little eyes, mama will hold you tight)

(Ferme tes petits yeux endormis, maman te tiendra bien serré)

(While she sings a lullaby to you, ever so sweetly)

(Pendant qu'elle te chante une berceuse, si doucement)

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

Enjilava kooka la goomba (la goomba chi-baba)

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

My bambino go to sleep

Mon bambino, va dormir

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

My bambino go to sleep

Mon bambino, va dormir

Chi-baba, chi-baba, chihuahua

My bambino go to sleep

Mon bambino, va dormir
