Текст и перевод песни Ted Herman - Mairzy Doats

Mairzy Doats

I know a ditty, nutty as a fruitcake
Goofy as a goon and silly as a loon
Some call it pretty, others call it crazy
But they all sing this tune:

Mairzy doats And dozy doats
And liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?

Yes! Mairzy doats And Dozy Doats
And liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?

If the words sound queer and funny to your ear,
A little bit jumbled and jivey,
Sing "Mares eat oats and does eat oats
And little lambs eat ivy"

And liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you - oo?
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?

Mairzy Doats

Je connais un petit air, aussi dingue qu'un gâteau aux fruits
Absurde comme un crétin et stupide comme un fou
Certains le trouvent mignon, d'autres le trouvent fou
Mais tous chantent ce refrain :

Mairzy doats Et dozy doats
Et liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?

Oui ! Mairzy doats Et Dozy Doats
Et liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?

Si les mots te paraissent bizarres et drôles à l'oreille,
Un peu mélangés et sautillants,
Chante "Les juments mangent de l'avoine et les biches mangent de l'avoine
Et les petits agneaux mangent du lierre"

Et liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you - oo?
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
