Nous avons une histoire,
Allons, allons,
Nous avons une histoire
À vous faire écouter,
Voyons, voyons, voyons, voyons,
À vous faire écouter,
Voyons, voyons, voyons voyons,
À vous faire écouter,
Voyons, voyons, voyons voyons.
We have a story,
Let's go, let's go*,
We have a story
To tell you,
Let's see, let's see, let's see, let's see**,
To tell you,
Let's see, let's see, let's see, let's see,
To tell you,
Let's see, let's see, let's see, let's see.
