Lyrics
Vocalises)
Deux tziganes, sans rpit, grattent leurs guitares,
Ranimant du fond des nuits toute ma mmoire
Sans savoir que roule en moi un flot de dtresse,
Font renatre sous leurs doigts ma folle jeunesse
E kh raz, is cho raz
Is ch mnaga mnaga raz
E kh raz, is cho raz
Is cho mnaga mnaga raz
Jouez tziganes, jouez pour moi avec flammes
Afin de couvrir la voix qui dit mon me:
O as-tu mal? Pourquoi tu?
T’as mal la tte mais,
Bois un peu moins aujourd’hui
Tu boiras plus demain
Et encore plus aprs demain
Je veux rire, je veux chanter
Et souler ma peine
Pour oublier le pass qu’avec moi je trane
Allez, apportez-moi du vin fort
Car le vin dlivre
Oh, versez, versez m’en encore
Pour que je m’enivre
Deux guitares en ma pense jettent un trouble immense
M’expliquant la vanit de notre existence
Que vivons nous? Pourquoi vivons nous?
Quelle est la raison d’tre?
Tu es vivant aujourd’hui, tu seras mort demain
Et encore plus aprs demain
La la la ekh
En is ch, is ch, is ch mnaga mnaga mnaga eh En is ch raz, ch mnaga mnaga raz
Quand je serais ivre mort
Faible et lamentable
Et que vous verrez mon corps rouler sous la table, alors.
Alors vous pourrez cesser vos chants qui rsonnent
Mais en attendant, jouez
Jouez j’ordonne
Lyrics translation
Vocalise)
Two Gypsies, without rpit, scratch their guitars,
Reanimant from the bottom of the nights all my mmoire
Without knowing that a stream of dtresse is rolling in me,
Make renatre under their fingers my crazy youth
E kh raz, is cho raz
Is ch mnaga mnaga raz
E kh raz, is cho raz
Is cho mnaga mnaga raz
Play Gypsies, play for me with flames
In order to cover the voice that says My me:
Or are you in pain? Why you?
You're in pain, but ... ,
Drink a little less today
You'll drink more tomorrow
And even more after tomorrow
I want to laugh, I want to sing
And lift my pain
To forget the pass that with me I trane
Come on, Bring me some strong wine.
Because wine is free
Oh, pour, pour me more
So that I get drunk
Two guitars in my mind throw a huge trouble
Explaining to me the vanity of our existence
What are we living? Why do we live?
What is the reason for tre?
You're alive today, you'll be dead tomorrow
And even more after tomorrow
La La La ekh
En is CH, is ch, is CH mnaga mnaga mnaga eh En is CH raz, Ch mnaga mnaga raz
When I'm dead drunk
Weak and lamentable
And you'll see my body roll under the table, then.
Then you can stop your singing that sounds
But in the meantime, play
Play I order
