Cousine

Mayol

Original text

Autrefois, ma cousine Hortense

Arrivait de temps en temps

Chez mes parents;

Elle venait passer ses vacances

Dans notre petite maison

Près de Toulon.

C'était dans l’programme,

Quand nous recevions le télégramme,

Le bonheur dans l'âme

A la gare je courais comme un fou

Mais l’train arrivait tout à coup.

En la voyant je criais: Zou!!!

Cousine, cousine,

T’es fraîche comme une praline,

Cousine, cousine,

Coquin de sort, quelle bonne mine!

Et tu as bien dormi dans le train?

J’espère que tu avais un coin?

Cousine, cousine,

Embrasse ton cousin germain!

Chaque matin courant vers la grève,

Afin d’nous baigner tous deux,

Dans les flots bleus,

On s’déshabillait — quel beau rêve —

Sous l’ombrage hospitalier

Des oliviers.

Rouge comme une cerise,

Afin d’me cacher sa gorge exquise,

Elle ram’nait sa ch’mise,

Mais comme y avait de la dentelle partout

Souvent, je voyais par un trou

Un sein qui montrait son p’tit bout.

Cousine, cousine,

Qu’est-c'que j’vois sur ta poitrine?

Cousine, cousine,

On dirait deux mandarines

Tu as les mandarines, c’est certain,

Mais peuchère, c’qui m’en bouche un coin,

Cousine, cousine,

C’est qu’c’est moi qui ai l’pépin!

Souvent, prenant sa main mignonne,

Je l’emmenais faire un tour

Dans la basse-cour,

Et tandis qu’pigeons et pigeonnes

Faisaient l’amour sans pudeur,

On f’sait l’voyeur,

La brise frivole

Nous portait bientôt des chansons folles:

«C'est la farandole,

Viens farandoler sur le gazon!»

«Plus tard (me disait-elle) Gaston

Quand t’auras du poil au menton!»

Cousine, cousine,

Oui, l’amour me turlupine,

Cousine, cousine,

Laisse-moi t’faire des p’tites machines

Tu as peur que je te fasse un enfant?

Ne crains rien, je n’ai que dix-sept ans!

Cousine, cousine,

Viens faire tutu-panpan!

Mais elle m'écrivit l’autre année:

«Cher cousin, je ne viendrai pas,

Tu m’excus’ras,

Depuis huit jours, je suis mariée

Et pour plaire à mon mari

J’reste à Paris»

La méchante lettre,

En moi quel chagrin elle fit naître!

Du fond de mon être

Monta comme un frisson de rancœur;

J’interrogeai dans ma douleur

Les arbres, la grève, les fleurs.

Cousine, cousine

Si gentille, si câline,

Cousine, cousine,

C’est mon cœur qu’elle piétine,

On devait s’unir au printemps,

Et moi je suis là, tè!

J’attends

Cousine, cousine,

L’amour c’est des boniments!

Song translation

Formerly, my cousin Hortense

Happened from time to time

At my parents;

She came to spend her holidays

In our little house

Near Toulon.

It was in the program

When we received the telegram,

Happiness in the soul

At the station I was running like crazy

But the train came suddenly.

Seeing her I cried: Zou!!!

Cousin, cousin,

You're fresh as a praline,

Cousin, cousin,

Coquin de fate, what a good look!

And did you sleep well on the train?

I hope you had a corner?

Cousin, cousin,

Kiss your first cousin!

Every morning running to the shore,

In order to bathe us both,

In the blue waves,

We undressed — what a beautiful dream —

Under the hospitable shade

Olive trees.

Red like a cherry,

In order to hide her exquisite throat from me,

She was bringing back her shirt,

But since there was lace everywhere

Often I saw through a hole

A breast that showed its little end.

Cousin, cousin,

What do I see on your chest?

Cousin, cousin,

Looks like two tangerines

You have the tangerines, that's for sure,

But bitch, what's blocking a corner of it for me,

Cousin, cousin,

It's me who has the problem!

Often, taking her lovely hand,

I took her for a ride

In the barnyard,

And while pigeons and pigeons

Made love shamelessly,

We know how to be a voyeur

The Frivolous Breeze

We were soon wearing crazy songs:

"It's the farandole,

Come hang out on the lawn!"

"Later (she told me) Gaston

When you've got hair on your chin!"

Cousin, cousin,

Yes, love bothers me,

Cousin, cousin,

Let me make you little machines

Are you afraid that I will make you a child?

Don't worry, I'm only seventeen!

Cousin, cousin,

Come and do tutu-thump!

But she wrote to me the other year:

"Dear cousin, I will not come,

you will excuse me,

Eight days I've been married

And to please my husband

I'm staying in Paris"

The bad letter

In me what sorrow she caused!

From the bottom of my being

Arose like a shiver of resentment;

I questioned in my pain

The trees, the strike, the flowers.

Cousin, cousin

So kind, so cuddly,

Cousin, cousin,

It's my heart that she tramples on,

We had to unite in the spring,

And I'm here, you!

I wait

Cousin, cousin,

Love is bullshit!
