Efter en sommerfugl

Language: Norwegian (Bokmål)

Our translations: FRE

Sommerfuglen min, med vingerne fine, 
Røde og brune og røde og blaa, 
Finder du da ingen af blomsterne dine? 
Sommerfuglen min, med vingerne fine, 
Sæt dig nu der paa det svaiende straa. 

Sommerfuglen min, jeg vil ikke skræmme dig, 
Vil bare naa dig, vil bare faa dig 
Vil bare gjemme dig! 
Der havde jeg dig næsten, 
Og saa fløi du din vei.
 
Sommerfuglen min, med vingerne fine, 
Røde og brune og røde og blaa, 
Jeg vil ikke skræmme dig, 
Vil bare naa dig, vil bare faa dig 
Vil bare gjemme dig!

Après un papillon

Language: French (Français) after the Norwegian (Bokmål)

Mon papillon, aux ailes fines,
Rouges et brunes, rouges et bleues,
Ne trouves-tu aucune de tes fleurs ?
Mon papillon, aux ailes fines,
Posé sur une paille qui se balance.

Mon papillon, je ne veux pas te faire peur,
Je veux juste t'attraper, je veux juste te garder,
Je veux juste te cacher !
Là je t'avais presque,
Et tu t'es envolé.

Mon papillon, aux ailes fines,
Rouges et brunes, rouges et bleues,
Je ne veux pas te faire peur,
Je veux juste t'attraper, je veux juste te garder,
Je veux juste te cacher !
