Viens danser le twist [English translation]

Come on my friends,

Clap in your hands.

We are going to dance twist.

It's the new rock.

Nothing and no one can resist it,

Don't let us hesitate!

Do like me!

Follow my paces!

Rhythm twist!

Give me your hand, like that,

You are doing well,

Go on like that!

One turn around me,

Swing still with your arms!

Of course, my art

Is rhythming twist.

Eh, twist well!

Yes, twist well still!

Yes, but dancing!

Don't forget, don't forget

I'm here!

Rhythming twist

In my arms,

My art is beating for you.

Rhythm twist!

Give me your hand, like that.

You are doing well,

Go on like that!

One turn around me,

Swing still with your arms!

Of course, my art

Is rhythming twist.

Eh, twist well!

Yes, twist well still!

Yes, but dancing!

Don't forget, don't forget

I'm here,

Rhythming twist!

That is a twist,

Clap in your hands,

Warm the dancing floor!

It's better than well!
