French Lyrics and expressions
Épisode 5 Feux d’artifice
Boum, boum, boum
Les feux d’artifice
Ecoutez comme ils font du
bruit
Regardez comme ils sont
jolis
Y’en a des rouges
Y’en a des jaunes
Y’en a des verts
Et y’en a des bleus
Tapent tapent petites mains
Tournent, tournent, petits
moulins
Volent, volent petits
oiseaux
Nagent, nagent petits
bateaux
Un coquelicot
Un bleuet

Fire works
Boom, boom, boom,
The fireworks
Listen, how they do noise
Look, how they are pretty
There are red ones
There are yellow ones
There are green ones
And there are blue ones
Clap, clap little hands
Grammatically and in
writing, there is/there are
would be “il y a”, “Y’en a”
is a familiar and spoken
abbreviation
This is a traditional
nursery rhyme
Turn, turn little windmills
Fly, fly little birds
Swim, swim little boats
A poppy
A cornflower
The French remembrance flower. It is less
widespread than the British one.
