lyrics

(GSC)
Vedetz la sicolana
Quan s’ei virat de costat
La lutz que l’a truversat
Enter los òs e la pèth
Autan de carn
Qu’un ausèth

Vedetz la sicolana
Quan eth partí tau quilhèr
Lo vent balaguèr bohè
Los malhets son demorats
Mes eth qu’estó emportat
Vedetz la sicolana

Sicolana ! Tau hanguèr se n’anè
Mala sòrta, la plojassa cadè
Drin tròp tard, de s’escapar que pensè
Mes pro lèu, que’u creix raditz au pè

Ohohoh Diu quina misèria
Deu brèç au cemitèri

Vedetz la sicolana
De tant qu’ei garrut
S’estuja dens la brana
Vedetz la sicolana
Diu qu’ei mau foutut
Com un camin de lana
E quan minja que s’escana
La sicolana !

Sicolana ! Tau cassorar se n’anè
Mala sòrta que peirabatè
Se las huelhas n’an pas tremolat
Lo praube òmi qu’estó tot traucat

Ohohoh Diu quin batahòri
Deu brèç au purgatòri

(FR)
Voyez la sicoulane*
Quand il s’est mis de côté
La lumière l’a traversé
Entre les os et la peau
Autant de viande qu’un oiseau

Voyez la sicoulane
Quand il partit au terrain de quilles
Le vent du sud soufflait
Les maillets sont restés
Mais lui, fut emporté
Voyez la sicoulane

Sicoulane ! Dans le bourbier s’en allait
Pas de chance, il pleuvait des cordes
Un peu trop tard, il pensa à s’échapper
Et lui poussèrent aux pieds, des racines

Ohohoh, Dieu quelle misère
Du berceau au cimetière

Voyez la Sicoulane
Il est tellement gaillard
Qu’il se cache dans la bruyère
Voyez la Sicoulane
Dieu qu’il est mal foutu
Comme un chemin de lande
Et quand il mange il s’étouffe
La Sicoulane !

Sicoulane ! A la chênaie partait
Pas de chance, il grêlait
Si les feuilles n’ont pas tremblé
Le pauvre homme fut tout troué

Ohohoh, Dieu quel beau bordel
Du berceau au purgatoire

*La Sicoulane est un petit lézard gris, ici c'est un surnom pour désigner une personne vraiment très maigre

(EN)
See the lizard*
When he is standing sideways
The light goes straight through him
All skin and bones
As much meat as a bird

Look at the lizard
When he was on the skittles court
The south wind blew
The mallets still stood firm
But he was blown away
See the lizard

Lizard! Disappeared to the bog
No luck, it’s raining cats and dogs
He thinks of escaping, a little too late
At his feet grow roots

Ohohoh, God what a misery
From the cradle to the grave

See the lizard
He is so strapping
That he can hide in the heather
See the lizard
God, he is such a freak
Like a wasted road through moor
When he eats he chokes
The lizard!

Lizard! Left for the oak grove
No luck it was hailing
Not even the leaves trembled
But he the poor man was full of holes!

Ohohoh, God what a mess
From the cradle to purgatory

*The lizard (la sicolana) is used as a nickname for very skinny people
