Lyrics

Derrière chez nous y a un étang,
trois beaux canards s’y vont nageant.
Y en a deux noirs, y en a un blanc.
V’là l’bon vent, v’là l’joli vent,
v’là l’bon vent, ma mie m’appelle.
V’là l’bon vent, v’là l’joli vent,
v’là l’bon vent, ma mie m’attend.
Le fils du roi s’en va chassant
avec son grand fusil d’argent;
mire le noir et tue le blanc.
V’là l’bon vent … (etc.)
O fils du roi, tu es méchant
d’avoir tué mon canard blanc.
Par-dessous l’aile il perd son sang.
V’là l’bon vent … (etc.)
Par les yeux lui sort des diamants
et par le bec l’or et l’argent.
Toutes ses plumes s’envolent au vent.
V’là l’bon vent … (etc.)
Trois dames s’en vont les ramassant.
C’est pour en faire un lit de camp
pour y coucher tous les passants.
V’là l’bon vent … (etc.)

Lyrics translation

Behind us is a pond,
three beautiful Ducks go swimming there.
There's two blacks, there's one white.
There's the good wind, there's the nice wind,
Here Comes the good wind, my darling calls me.
There's the good wind, there's the nice wind,
Here Comes the good wind, my darling is waiting for me.
The King's son drives away
with his big silver gun;
look at the black and kill the White.
There's the good wind ...(etc.)
O son of the king, you are evil
for killing my white duck.
Under the wing he loses his blood.
There's the good wind ...(etc.)
Through his eyes comes out diamonds
and by the beak gold and silver.
All its feathers fly to the wind.
There's the good wind ...(etc.)
Three ladies go and pick them up.
This is to make it a camp bed
to sleep there all passers-by.
There's the good wind ...(etc.)
