La Petite Tonkinoise (Remastered) - Joséphine Baker traduction en anglais

La Petite Tonkinoise (Remastered)

C'est moi qui suis sa petite
son Anana, son Anana, son Anammite
je suis vive, je suis charmante
Comme un p'tit z'oiseau qui chante
il m'appelle sa p'tite bourgeoise
sa Tonkiki, sa Tonkiki, ma Tonkinoise
D'autres lui font les doux yeux
Mais c'est moi qu'il aime le mieux

L'soir on cause d'un tas d'choses
Avant de se mettre au pieu
J'apprends la géographie
D'la Chine et d'la Mandchourie
Les frontières, les rivières
Le Fleuve Jaune et le Fleuve Bleu
Y a même l'Amour c'est curieux
Qu'arrose l'Empire du Milieu

C'est moi qui suis sa petite
son Anana, son Anana, son Anammite
je suis vive, je suis charmante
Comme un p'tit oiseau qui chante
il m'appelle sa p'tite bourgeoise
sa Tonkiki, sa Tonkiki, sa Tonkinoise
D'autres lui font les doux yeux
Mais c'est moi qu'il aime le mieux.

Little Tonkinese Girl (Remastered)

I'm his little
His Anana, his Anana, his Anammite
I'm lively, I'm charming
Like a little bird that sings
He calls me his little bourgeoise
His Tonkiki, his Tonkiki, his Tonkinoise
Others make eyes at him
But I'm the one he loves the most

In the evening we talk about a lot of things
Before going to bed
I'm learning geography
Of China and Manchuria
The borders, the rivers
The Yellow River and the Blue River
There's even the Amur, it's funny
Which irrigates the Middle Kingdom

I'm his little
His Anana, his Anana, his Anammite
I'm lively, I'm charming
Like a little bird that sings
He calls me his little bourgeoise
His Tonkiki, his Tonkiki, his Tonkinoise
Others make eyes at him
But I'm the one he loves the best.
