Voulez-vous danser grand-mère? [English translation]

Ah what a ceremony,

For Grandpa and Grandma,

The whole family gathered

For their Diamond wedding anniversary

The champagne which sparkles,

Makes all the eyes sparkle

When a little girl,

Says laughing to the dear old couple:

[Chorus:]

Would you like to dance Grandma?

Would you like to waltz Grandpa?

Just like in the good old days,

When you were twenty years old.

To a tune that reminds you,

How beautiful life was.

For your anniversary,

Would you like to dance Grandma?

How immense is the joy,

We play on the gramophone*,

The record* of a romance,

With gentle and old-fashioned accents.

So forgetting their wrinkles*,

In memory of the past,

The two ancestors decide,*

And embrace one another to dance.

[Chorus] : (x3)

Would you like to dance Grandma?

Would you like to waltz Grandpa?

Just like in the good old days,

When you were twenty years old.

To a tune that reminds you,

How beautiful life was.

For your anniversary,

Would you like to dance Grandma?
