Lyrics

Petit indien s’en allait
Sur son joli canoë
Et tout le long il chantait
Ohé
Au rythme de sa pagaie
Voguant vers sa bien aimée
Il avait le c ur si gai
Ohé
Les lianes le caressaient
Et les bambous s'écartaient
Pour laisser son canoë
Passer
Les oiseaux du voisinage
Se disaient dans leur langage
«Prenons bien soin du petit indien»
Oui, mais quand la nuit fut venue,
Dans son nid, chacun disparu
Il fut seul et la lune bleue
Ferma ses yeux
Petit indien sommeillait
Mais par bonheur, une fille
Sur la rivière enchantée
Veillait
Et des poissons argentés
Toute la nuit ont nagé
En guidant son canoë
Léger
Eveillé par un baiser
Il se dit «C'est la rosée»
Mais s'était sa bien aimée
Ohé
L’amour chassant les obstacles
Avait semé les miracles
Sur le chemin du petit indien
Ohé ! Ohé ! Ohé !

Lyrics translation

Little Indian was leaving
On his pretty canoe
And all along he sang
OHE
To the beat of his paddle
Rowing to his beloved
He had such a cheerful heart
OHE
The lianas caressed him
And the bamboos spread
To leave his canoe
Spend
The birds of the neighborhood
Said themselves in their language
"Let's take good care of the Little Indian»
Yes, but when the night came,
In his nest, each disappeared
He was alone and the blue moon
Closed his eyes
Little Indian slumber
But fortunately, a girl
On the Enchanted River
Ensure
And silverfish
All night swam
Riding his canoe
Light
Awakened by a kiss
He says to himself, "it's dew»
But had her beloved
OHE
Love chasing obstacles
Had sown miracles
On the way to the Little Indian
Ohh ! Ohh ! Ohh !
