Lyrics
Attention! Attention!
Nous allons ouvrir le bal
Attention! Attention!
Attention au coup d' cymbale!
La danse commence sur un air de polka
Musique magique du bon temps d’autrefois
Mais belle, si belle, qui donc paraît là-bas?
Chacun s’est arrêté
Pour mieux la voir et l’admirer
Devinez, devinez
Devinez qui vient d’entrer.
Refrain
Oui c’est elle la plus belle
De tout le canton
Rose-Marie
La plus sage du village
Mais qui est-ce donc?
Rose-Marie
Faut voir comme tous les hommes
Répètent son nom
Rose-Marie
Car elle est leur idé-idéal
Idé-idéal, idé-idéal,
Celle dont ils rêv'ront après le bal
C’est Rose-Marie.
Le maire, sévère, est tout émoustillé
Le garde prend garde à cause de sa moitié
L’notaire, austère, voudrait bien l'épouser
Et jusqu’au père Gontran
Qui en oublie ses cent-deux ans
Mais pourquoi? Mais pourquoi?
Mais pourquoi tout ce branle-bas?
Après le 2e refrain
Rose-Marie
Rose-Marie
Rose-Marie
Car elle est leur idé-idéal
Idé-idéal, idé-idéal,
Celle dont ils rêv'ront après le bal
C’est Rose-Marie.
Lyrics translation
Beware! Beware!
We will open the ball
Beware! Beware!
Watch out for the cymbal!
The dance begins on an air of polka
Magic music of the good times of yesteryear
But beautiful, so beautiful, who then looks there?
Everyone stopped
To better see and admire her
Guess, guess
Guess who just walked in.
Chorus
Yes she is the most beautiful
From all over the canton
Rose-Marie
The wisest in the village
But who is it?
Rose-Marie
Must see like all men
Repeat his name
Rose-Marie
Because it is their ideal
Ideal-ideal, ideal-ideal,
The one they'll dream of after the ball
It's Rose Marie.
The mayor, Stern, is all moved
The guard takes care because of his half
The notary, austere, would like to marry him
And to Father Gontran
Who forgets his one hundred and two years
But why? But why?
But why is all this jerking off?
After the 2nd chorus
Rose-Marie
Rose-Marie
Rose-Marie
Because it is their ideal
Ideal-ideal, ideal-ideal,
The one they'll dream of after the ball
It's Rose Marie.
