J'ai dix ans [English translation]

I am ten years old.

I know it is not true

but I am ten years old.

Allow me to dream

that soon it will be fifteen years

that I am ten years old.

It seems to be weird but

if you don't believe me, hei,

you will see how I leave your face at the recess.

I am ten years old,

I go to school

and I hear

beautiful words,

softly.

I enjoy myself

with my kite.

I dream I'm flying.

If you don't believe me, hei,

you will see how I leave your face at the recess.

On Wednesdays I take a stroll.

A straw in my lemonade.

I am going to bother the girls in pink

and the boys in blue.

I am ten years old.

I live in some spheres

where the grown-ups

have nothing to do.

Frecuebtly I go

in balloons of giants

and of little green men.

If you don't believe me. hei,

you will see how I leave your face at recess.

I am ten years old.

The pockets full of marbles.

I am ten years old.

The girls are like bells.

I am ten years old.

Allow me to dream

that I am ten years old.

If you don't believe me, hei,

you will see how I leave your face at recess.

Well hidden in my hut

I am the king of the blow gun;

I throw chewin gum balls in all directions,

the vendor gives me discount.

I am ten years old.

I know it is not true

but I am ten years old

Allow me to dream tha I am ten years old.

It seems to be weird but

if you don't believe me, hei,

you will see how I leave your face in the recess.

If you don't believe me, hei,

you will see how I leave your face in the recess.

If you don't believe me, hei,

you will see how I leave your face in the recess.

You will see...
