Текст и перевод песни Pierre Perret - Don quichotte et sancho pança

Don quichotte et sancho pança

Connaissez-vous Don Quichotte et l'écuyer Sancho
Deux vaillants chevaliers qui n'étaient pas manchots
Les moulins à vent pourtant de vrais géants dodus
Étaient brisés, hachés, moulus, rasés, tondus

Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança
Saperlotte vous auriez vu ça
Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança
La tremblotte, ils ignoraient complètement ça

Sur la brave Rosinante et le patient grison
Ils s'en aller faire justice aux quatre horizons
Passant d'un pays à l'autre ils étaient si forts
Qu'aux douaniers ils ne montraient même pas le passeport

Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança
Saperlotte vous auriez vu ça
Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança
La tremblotte, ils ignoraient complètement ça

Pendant qu'sur un arbre surveillait Sancho Pança
Seul Don Quichotte provoquait les armées du roi
Il tordait tellement de cous arrachait tant de têtes
Qu'il se reposait parfois fumant une cigarette

Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança
Saperlotte vous auriez vu ça
Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança
La tremblotte, ils ignoraient complètement ça

Un jour Don Quichotte le valeureux, le hardi
Près d'une muraille rencontra un mal poli
D'un seul coup de poing aux creux du mur le fit rentrer
Ne lui laissant que le bras dehors pour saluer

Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança
Saperlotte vous auriez vu ça
Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança
La tremblotte, ils ignoraient complètement ça

Les ennemis, la soif, la faim et les intempéries
Usaient souvent jusqu'à leur peau et leurs habits
C'est la mort dans l'âme que chacun retrouvait sa maison
Ses amis, les pantoufles et la télévision

Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança
Saperlotte vous auriez vu ça
Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança
La tremblotte, ils ignoraient complètement ça

Don Quixote and Sancho Panza

Do you know, my dear, of Don Quixote and his squire Sancho?
Two valiant knights who weren't at all left-handed, you see.
The windmills, though, real plump giants they seemed to be,
Were broken, chopped, ground, shaved, and shorn completely.

Don Quixote and Sancho Panza,
Good heavens, my love, you should have seen that.
Don Quixote and Sancho Panza,
Trembling? They completely ignored that.

On brave Rocinante and the patient grey steed,
They went to deliver justice to all corners indeed.
Passing from one country to another, they were so strong,
They didn't even show their passports to customs all along.

Don Quixote and Sancho Panza,
Good heavens, my love, you should have seen that.
Don Quixote and Sancho Panza,
Trembling? They completely ignored that.

While up in a tree, Sancho Panza kept watch, you see,
Don Quixote alone provoked the king's army.
He twisted so many necks, tore off so many heads,
That he sometimes rested, smoking a cigarette instead.

Don Quixote and Sancho Panza,
Good heavens, my love, you should have seen that.
Don Quixote and Sancho Panza,
Trembling? They completely ignored that.

One day Don Quixote, the valiant, the bold and free,
Near a wall, met a rather rude fellow, he.
With a single punch, he drove him into the wall's recess,
Leaving only his arm outside to wave, no less.

Don Quixote and Sancho Panza,
Good heavens, my love, you should have seen that.
Don Quixote and Sancho Panza,
Trembling? They completely ignored that.

Enemies, thirst, hunger, and bad weather's sway,
Often wore down their skin and clothes, day by day.
It's with heavy hearts they each returned to their home,
Their friends, slippers, and the television's welcome drone.

Don Quixote and Sancho Panza,
Good heavens, my love, you should have seen that.
Don Quixote and Sancho Panza,
Trembling? They completely ignored that.
