LYRICS

Dans la prison de Londres
Y’avait un prisonnier.

In London’s prison
There was a prisoner.

Person’ ne v’nait le vouère
Que la fille du geôlier.

Nobody came to see him
Except for the jailer’s daughter.

Dites-moi donc la belle
Demain si je mourais?

Tell me, my beautiful
What if I died tomorrow?

Puisque je meurs demain
Lâchez-moi donc les pieds.

Since I will die tomorrow
Untie my feet.

Quand il eût les pieds lâches
À la mer s’est jeté.

When his feet were loose
To the sea threw himself

À la première plonge
Il a manqué s’noyer.

At the first dive
He almost drowned.

À la deuxième plonge
La mer a traversé.

At the second dive
He crossed the sea.

Quand il fût sur ses côtes
Il se mit à chanter.

When he reached the shore
He started to sing.

Si jamais j’y retourne
Oui je l’épouserai!

If I ever go back
Yes I will marry her!
