Hugues Aufray – Le petit âne gris [Version 2020] Lyrics

Artist: Hugues Aufray
Song: Le petit âne gris [Version 2020]

Ecoutez cette histoire
Que l’on m’a racontée
Du fond de ma mémoire
Je vais vous la chanter

Elle se passe en Provence
Au milieu des moutons
Dans le sud de la France
Au pays des santons

Quand il vint au domaine
Y avait un beau troupeau
Les étables étaient pleines
De brebis et d’agneaux

Marchant toujours en tête
Aux premières lueurs
Pour tirer sa charrette
Il mеttait tout son cœur

Au temps des transhumances
Il s’еn allait heureux
Remontant la Durance
Honnête et courageux

Mais un jour, de Marseille
Des messieurs sont venus
La ferme était bien vieille
Alors on l’a vendue

Il resta au village
Tout le monde l’aimait bien
Vaillant, malgré son âge
Et malgré son chagrin

Image d’évangile
Vivant d’humilité
Il se rendait utile
Auprés du cantonnier

Cette vie honorable
Un soir, s’est terminée
Dans le fond d’une étable
Tout seul il s’est couché

Pauvre bête de somme
Il a fermé les yeux
Abandonne des hommes
Il est mort sans adieux

Mm mm mmm mm…
Cette chanson sans gloire
Vous racontait la vie
Vous racontait l’histoire

Le petit âne gris [Version 2020] Lyrics – English Translation

Listen to this story
That I was told
From the bottom of my memory
I’ll sing it to you

It happens in Provence
In the middle of the sheep
In the south of France
In the land of the Santons

When he came to the estate
There was a beautiful herd
The stables were full
Sheep and lambs

Still walking in the lead
At the first light
To pull your cart
He was all his heart

In the time of transhumances
He was going happy
Raising the Durance
Honest and courageous

But one day, from Marseille
Gentlemen came
The farm was very old
So we sold it

He stayed in the village
Everyone loved him
Valiant, despite his age
And despite his sorrow

Gospel image
Lifetime
He made himself useful
Auprés du Cantonnier

This honorable life
One evening, ended
In the bottom of a stable
All alone he went to bed

Poor Beast of Somme
He closed his eyes
Abandon
He died without farewell

Mm mmmm mmm …
This song without glory
Told you about life
Told you the story
