Heather Dale - Patapan lyrics

French: Guillaume prends ton tambourin Toi, prends ta flûte, Robin; Au son de ces instruments “Turelurelu, patapatapan” Au son de ces instruments Je dirai Noël gaîment C'etait la mode autrefois De louer le Roi des rois Au son de ces instruments “Turelurelu, patapatapan” Au son de ces instruments Il nous en faut faire autant L'homme et Dieu sont plus d'accord Que la flûte et le tambour; Au son de ces instruments “Turelurelu, patapatapan” Au son de ces instruments Chantons, dansons, sautons en! English: Guillaume, bring your tambourine You, bring your flute, Robin; By these instruments' sounds: “Turelurelu, patapatapan” By these instruments' sounds I'll gaily say “Christmas!” It was the way in older times To praise the King of kings With these instruments' sounds: “Turelurelu, patapatapan” With these instruments' sounds we should do the same Man and God are more in harmony Than the flute and the tambourine; To these instruments' sounds: “Turelurelu, patapatapan” To these instruments' sounds, let us sing, dance and leap!
