PARLEZ-VOUS FRANÇAIS? - English translation to French lyrics

DO YOU SPEAK FRENCH?

- Wow, hello, my dear

You're looking great, Mayte

How was it: the island, the sea, the beach?

- Hmm... terrific, María

Like a dream

Ah, if you had seen it

- A-ha, did you understand the importance

Of knowing French?

Tell me

- No

- I beg you, you see?

Oh, I don't know, I mean...

- Ah, I see: love?

Ah, a love affair?

- Go on…

- Well, that's it

 

For hours on the beach, a beautiful afternoon

The sun

- The sun?

- Wakes me up

- Wakes you up?

- What a young man walking by

- A face, unalloyed

- His very dangerous blue eyes

- And then?

- Mmm then?

- Ooh, that man

- Ooh, that man?

- Ooh, he comes to me like a bandit, asking:

 

Do you speak French?

The language of love and summer

That's an opportunity for a French course

Shame on him who thinks ill of it

 

He says to me:

Do you speak French?

But tonight, let me pray

So I can see the lights in a nice way

To make love in good French

 

- What happiness, without clouds

The true love

When you cry

- Of happiness

- Embraced

- Delighted

Oh, such time of young madness

- Next year, more than a week

We'll go there together

- We will be

- It's so good

- We will be

- It's so good

We'll be like the Parisian beauties

 

We will say:

Do you speak French?

The language of love and summer

That's an opportunity for a French course

Shame on him who thinks ill of it

 

We will say:

Do you speak French?

But tonight, let me pray

So I can see the lights in a nice way

To make love in good French


Olé!
