Le doux caboulot [English translation]

The sweet local joint

blooming under the branches1

is full of people

every Sunday.

The maid is a brunette.

There's so many happy people.

To each their own,

boys and girls are as one.

Lovers infatuated with themselves,

we sure do love one another

and we're tipsy too.

It sure should last long enough

for Jeanne and Pierre

to have no regrets.

1. alludes to the small bistrots near Paris on the Seine or Marne rivers where people used to eat, drink and dance in the late 19th century, which have inspired numerous impressionist painters
