Текст и перевод песни Annie Cordy - Cho Ka Ka O

Cho Ka Ka O

(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho)

Dans l'île au soleil
Dans l'île aux merveilles
Y'a des oiseaux fleurs (cui-cui)
Des dragons siffleurs (shish)
Et tous les enfants
Pour passer le temps
Joue du tam tam, des bambous des bambous
Des toumbas en chantant cet air-là
Un, deux, trois

Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolat
Si tu me donnes des noix de coco
Moi je te donne mes ananas
Cho ka ka o
Cho-cho-cho-chocolat
Rikiki tes petits kiwis
(Rikiki tes petits kiwis)
Les babas de mes baobabs
(Les babas de mes baobabs)
Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolat

(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho)

Au bord de la plage
Y'a des coquillages
Et des caïmans (-man, -man)
Des serpents rampants (-pan, -pan)
Du soir au matin (-tin, -tin)
Dans tous les recoins (-coin, -coin)
Les grands boas, les pandas
Les babouins, les pingouins
Chantent tous ce refrain
Trois, quatre, cinq

Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolat
Si tu me donnes des noix de coco
Moi je te donne mes ananas
Cho ka ka o
Cho-cho-cho-chocolat
Rikiki tes petits kiwis
(Rikiki tes petits kiwis)
Les babas de mes baobabs
(Les babas de mes baobabs)
Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolat

(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho)

Si tu vas là-bas
Un jour tu verras
Des crabes-tambours (-bours, -bours)
Et des poissons-chats (miaou)
Des orangs-outans (-tans, -tans)
Des singes poètes (pouet, pouet)
Des kangourous, des hiboux
Et même des loups-garous
Pour chanter comme nous
Tous en chœur

Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolat
Si tu me donnes des noix de coco
Moi je te donne mes ananas
Cho ka ka o
Cho-cho-cho-chocolat
Rikiki tes petits kiwis
(Rikiki tes petits kiwis)
Les babas de mes baobabs
(Les babas de mes baobabs)
Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolat

Cho ka ka o (cho cho cho ka ka o)
Cho-chocolat (cho cho cho ka ka o)
Cho ka ka o (cho cho cho ka ka o)
Cho-chocolat (cho-chocolat)

Cho Ka Ka O

(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho)

On an island in the sun
On an island of wonders
There are birds and flowers (tweet-tweet)
And whistling dragons (hiss-hiss)
And all the children
To pass the time
Play on the drums, on the bamboo, on the bamboos
On the tumbas, singing this tune
One, two, three

Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolate
If you give me some coconuts
I'll give you my pineapples
Cho ka ka o
Cho-cho-cho-chocolate
Your tiny kiwis are ridiculous
(Your tiny kiwis are ridiculous)
The babas of my baobab trees
(The babas of my baobab trees)
Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolate

(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho)

On the beach
There are seashells
And caimans (-man, -man)
And crawling snakes (-pan, -pan)
From dusk till dawn (-tin, -tin)
In every corner (-coin, -coin)
Big boas, pandas
Baboons, penguins
All sing this chorus
Three, four, five

Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolate
If you give me some coconuts
I'll give you my pineapples
Cho ka ka o
Cho-cho-cho-chocolate
Your tiny kiwis are ridiculous
(Your tiny kiwis are ridiculous)
The babas of my baobab trees
(The babas of my baobab trees)
Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolate

(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho ka ka o)
(Cho cho cho)

If you go there
One day you'll see
Drumming crabs (-bours, -bours)
And catfish (meow)
Orangutans (-tans, -tans)
Poet monkeys (squeak, squeak)
Kangaroos, owls
And even werewolves
To sing like us
All together

Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolate
If you give me some coconuts
I'll give you my pineapples
Cho ka ka o
Cho-cho-cho-chocolate
Your tiny kiwis are ridiculous
(Your tiny kiwis are ridiculous)
The babas of my baobab trees
(The babas of my baobab trees)
Cho ka ka o
Cho-chocolate

Cho ka ka o (cho cho cho ka ka o)
Cho-chocolate (cho cho cho ka ka o)
Cho ka ka o (cho cho cho ka ka o)
Cho-chocolate (cho-chocolate)
