Maman, Papa [English translation]

Mommy, Mommy, while performing this song,

Mommy, Mommy, I become a little boy again,

So I'm smart in class

And, to make you happy,

I get the best grades,

What you want.

Mommy, Mommy, instead of my crazy games, I'd rather,

Mommy, Mommy, stay in your lap,

And, saying not a word, hear your charming songs,

Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, Mommy.

Daddy, Daddy, while performing this song,

Daddy, Daddy, I become a little boy again,

And I hear you beneath the storm

Drawing on all your humour

To give courage once again

To our heavy hearts.

Daddy, Daddy, between us there never was,

Daddy, Daddy, tenderness or soft words,

Nonetheless we loved each other, even though we never declared it,

Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, Daddy.

Mommy, Daddy, while performing this song,

Mommy, Daddy, I become a little boy again,

And, thanks to this trick,

Suddenly I understand

The price of your sacrifices,

My parents.

Mommy, Daddy, I will always regret,

Mommy, Daddy, having made you cry

During those times when our hearts didn't understand each other yet,

Mommy, Daddy, Mommy, Daddy.
