Les anges les anges dans le ciel

Language: French (Français)

Our translations: CAT CHI ENG

Les anges les anges dans le ciel
L'un est vêtu en officier
L'un est vêtu en cuisinier
Et les autres chantent

Bel officier couleur du ciel
Le doux printemps longtemps après Noël
Te médaillera
D'un beau soleil.

Le cuisinier plume les oies
Ah! tombe neige
Tombe et que n'ai je
Ma bien-aimée entre mes bras

Els àngels els àngels dalt del cel

Language: Catalan (Català) after the French (Français)

Els àngels els àngels dalt del cel
un va vestit d’oficial
un va vestit de cuiner
i els altres canten

Bell oficial color de cel
la dolça primavera molt de temps des de Nadal
et guardonarà
amb un formós sol

El cuiner ploma les oques
ai neu! Vés caient
cau, que no puc tenir
l’estimada als meus braços
