Translation of the song L'avion artist Lucie Delarue-Mardrus

French

L'avion

English translation

The Plane

L'avion, au fond du ciel clair,

The plane, in the depths of the bright sky,

Se promène dans les étoiles,

Takes a walk amongst the stars

Tout comme les barques à voile

Just like the sailing boats

Vont sur la mer.

Sail along the sea

C'est un moulin des anciens âges

It's a windmill from ages past

Qui soudain a quitté le sol

That has suddenly left the ground

Et qui, par-dessus les villages

An who, above the little villages,

A pris son vol.

Has taken its flight.

Les oiseaux ont peur de ses ailes,

The birds are afraid of its wings

Mais les enfants le trouvent beau,

But the children find it beautiful,

Ce grand cerf-volant sans ficelles

The kite without wings

Qui va si haut.

That flies so high.

Moi, plus tard, en aéroplane

Me, later, by plane

Plus hardi que les plus hardis,

The most daring of the daring

Je compte bien aller sans panne

I count on going without a breakdown

Au paradis.

To paradise.
