Текст и перевод песни Kassav' - Tonbé Léta

Tonbé Léta

Mwen pa bwè ... mwen pa boulé
Dépi ou wé i men-yen sa
Tout ko mwen ka wayayay
Mammay ...mwen pa boulé
Lé tanbou bay la vwa
Mi mwen ka tonbé léta

Dé lè′w trantchil pa ka mandé ayen
Ou la épi zanmi'w ka véyé mèl an pyébwa
Prospè fini rousi manjé nou té ka bladjé
An jounen siwo myèl

Mwen pa bwè... mwen ka tonbé léta
Mwen ka di′w sa
Kaptèson té ka bay bon misik
Mé sé nonm lan si zé déyé tanbou a
Pitingpak blo woyoyoy éti la i soti
Boug la mwen sézi

Dé zyé mwen té ka gadé lot koté
Tout zibyé rété chanté yo boukanné
Dé pyé mwen té ka maché a lopozé
Lan mem té balé pou mwen vanté
Le'y alé dèyè tanbou

Konyen dé fwa, mwen pri an sa
Brennen sans mwen konsidéré
I chayé mwen an tèt monn la

Mwen tonbé léta ayay
Mwen tonbé léta manmay la kriyé Alelouya
Alelouya

Mwen tonbé léta, Mwen tonbé léta
Mwen tonbé léta manmay la kriyé Alelouya
Alelouya, anko Alelouya

Mwen diw i konyen an fwa
Dézyém la té ja tro ta
Sé palé i té ka palé
E mwen mem té ka kouté

Tanbou a ka bay la wa ... Wé!
Tanbou a ka pran difé... Wé!
Tanbou a ka bay lava ... Wé!
Tanbou a ka bay la vwa ...
Tanbou a ka pran difé... Wé!
Mi Tanbou a ka pran difé... Wé!

Falling into a State

I don't drink ... I don't smoke
Since you see it, this hand of mine
My whole body is swaying
Mamay ... I don't smoke
The drums give voice
I'm falling into a state

When you're tranquil, you don't ask for anything
You're there with your friends watching the honey in the tree
Prosper finished roasting the food we were craving
A day of honey

I don't drink... I'm falling into a state
I'm telling you this
Kaptèson used to play good music
But it's the man behind the drum
Pounding forcefully, he makes it come out
The guy, I'm seized

My eyes were looking elsewhere
All the elders remained singing, they were excited
My feet were walking in opposition
The hand even swept for me to boast
When he went behind the drum

Twice, I beg for this
To burn my senses considered
He carries me to the top of the world

I'm falling into a state, ayay
I'm falling into a state, the child cries Hallelujah
Hallelujah

I'm falling into a state, I'm falling into a state
I'm falling into a state, the child cries Hallelujah
Hallelujah, again Hallelujah

I tell you, it's twice
The second time was already too late
He was speaking
And I myself was listening

The drum gives the rhythm ... Yes!
The drum catches fire... Yes!
The drum gives the lava ... Yes!
The drum gives the voice ...
The drum catches fire... Yes!
My drum catches fire... Yes!
