Le temps passe et je n'veux plus y penser
Time goes by and I don't want to think about it anymore
Laisse tomber tes problèmes, on va danser
Let go of your troubles, we're going to dance
On verra demain
We'll see tomorrow
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Ce soir tu peux baisser les armes
Tonight you can lower your guard
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Laisse-moi faire danser ton âme, oh
Let me make your soul dance, oh
Ne m'dis pas tu n'es pas fatiguée
Don't tell me you're not tired
Je vois tes yeux quand tu rentres le soir
I see your eyes when you come home at night
Entre les jobs, je t'ai vu naviguer
Between jobs, I saw you navigating
Le poing levé même quand y'a plus d'espoir
The fist raised even when there's no more hope
Je n'veux plus te voir passer le balais
I don't want to see you sweep anymore
Oh Mama, tu n'le mérites pas
Oh Mama, you don't deserve that
J'aimerais te voir sourire dans ton palais
I wish to see you smile in your palace
Le bonheur sur ton visage
The happiness on your face
Le temps passe et je n'veux plus y penser
Time goes by and I don't want to think about it anymore
Allez donne-moi la main, oh Mama
Come on, give me your hand, oh Mama
Laisse tomber tes problèmes, on va danser
Let go of your problems, we're going to dance
On verra demain
We'll see tomorrow
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Ce soir tu peux baisser les armes
Tonight you can lay down your arms
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Laisse-moi faire danser ton âme, oh
Let me make your soul dance, oh
Le mal de dos, le réveil avant l'aube
The back pain, the waking before dawn
Je veux que tu les oublies à jamais
I want you to forget them forever
Pense à toi, non, ne pense plus aux autres
Think of yourself, no, don't think of others anymore
Je veux qu'tu t'poses car tu as trop ramé
I want you to rest because you've rowed too hard
À bout de bras tu nous as porté
With outstretched arms you carried us
Tu ne lèveras plus le petit doigt
You won't lift a finger anymore
Sur un plateau je voudrais t'apporter
On a platter I would like to bring you
La jeunesse que t'as donné pour moi
The youth you gave me for you
Le temps passe et je n'veux plus y penser
Time goes by and I don't want to think about it anymore
Allez donne-moi la main, oh Mama
Come on, give me your hand, oh Mama
Laisse tomber tes problèmes, on va danser
Leave your troubles behind, we're going to dance
On verra demain
We'll see about tomorrow
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Ce soir tu peux baisser les armes
Tonight you can lay down your arms
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Oh Mama, oh Mama
Laisse-moi faire danser ton âme, oh
Let me make your soul dance, oh
Parce que Maman se lève tôt
Because Mama wakes up early
Parce qu'elle se lève tôt, trop tôt, trop tôt
Because she wakes up early, too early, too early
Parce que Maman se lève tôt
Because Mama wakes up early
Parce qu'elle se lève tôt, trop tôt, trop tôt
Because she wakes up early, too early, too early
Tu ne l'mérites pas
You don't deserve it
Car tu as trop ramé
For you have struggled too much
Mama, Mama, Mama
Mama, Mama, Mama
Mama, Mama, Mama
Mama, Mama, Mama
