Chante et danse la bohème
Béart Guy
Sing and Dance the Bohemian
{Refrain:}
Sing and dance the Bohemian, faria, faria, ho!
Fly and camp where God leads, faria, faria, ho!
Carefree, in the bright sun, living days like no other.
Faria, faria, faria, faria, faria, faria, ho! {x2}
In his pocket, nothing weighs,
But his heart beats at ease,
No bills and no taxes,
Nothing disturbs his peace.
{Refrain}
When hunger gets relentless,
He hunts in the woods,
Tender doe or quick chamois
Will make him a feast fit for a king.
{Refrain}
On the moss or in the straw,
He finds a bed that fits him just right,
Light-hearted, the bohemian sleeps,
No regrets to wake him up.
{Refrain}
And his baggage is so light,
He moves without a fight,
In the sky when God wills,
He'll fly away singing.
{Refrain}

Guy Béart only sings the first two verses then a third and final one:
Away from the wide roads,
He goes along the side paths,
The thickets and bushes
Open up to your song.
