Un petit pas, deux petits pas
Language: French (Français)
Un petit pas, deux petits pas
Le petit chien au trot s'en va
Sur la route bien longue qui s'ouvre.
Le petit chien s'en va-t-à Douvres.
Un petit pas, deux petits pas
Le petit chien au trot s'en va.
Sur la route trouve un ruisseau;
Fait oh, oh puis un grand saut
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
Un petit pas, deux petits pas,
Le petit chien au trot s'en va,
Sur la route trouve la Nuit,
Fait oh, oh, et puis Do Do

One little step, two little steps
Language: English after the French (Français)
One little step, two little steps,
the little dog goes off at a trot
on the very long road that spreads before him.
The dog is off to Dover.
One little step, two little steps,
the little dog goes off at a trot.
He finds a stream across the road,
and he goes "Oh, oh", then takes a big jump.
Oh, oh, oh, oh!
One little step, two little steps,
the little dog goes off at a trot.
On the road he finds the Night,
and he goes "Oh oh" and then "Zzzzz."
