i typed the lyrics into google translate and this is what came up:
I sing ! I sing night and morning, I sing on my way I sing, I'll farm castle I sing for bread and I sing for water I sleep The nuit'sur grass wood Flies Do not bite me I am happy, I have everything and I have nothing I sing on my way Elves Divinities of the night, Elves Sleeping in my bed The moon creeps stealthily In the woods, to dance, to dance with us. I ring The Countess today: No one, She has left, She has left a rice dish for me I said a Chinese lackey I sing But the hunger that haunts me Tormented My appetite. Suddenly I fall to the bottom of a path, I faint, falling and I die half "And Gendarme, Who pass on the way Gendarme, I hold out my hands. Pity, I'm hungry, I want to eat, I am light ... light ... " At office, Other mustaches told me, At office, "Ah, my friend, yes, yes, yes, yes You're the vagabond singer? We'll lock you up ... yes, your account is good. " Our strings, You saved my life, String, So be blessed For, thanks to you I have given up the ghost, I hung that night ... and since ... I sing ! I sing night and morning, I sing On the roads, I haunt farms and castles, A ghost who sings, you find it funny And I lie, Nuit'sur the grass of the woods, Flies Do not bite me I am happy, okay, I have more hunger, And I sing on my way.
