Coupe dans la brousse
Cut in the bush
Coupe dans les bois
Cut in the woods
Just cut, hey brother
Just Cut, Hey Brother
Dans ta main tourne
In your hand turns
Tout autour de toi
All around you
Le fer de ta machette
The iron of your machete
Coupe dans la brousse
Cut in the bush
Coupe dans les bois
Cut in the woods
Just cut, hey brother
Just Cut, Hey Brother
Un grand soleil tourne seul
A great sun turns alone
Autour de toi
Around you
La canne à sucre est mûre
Sugar cane is ripe
Et couper c'est ton boulot
And cut it's your job
Li faut couper les roseaux
Li must cut the reeds
D'où le sucre coule à flot
From where the sugar flows afloat
Coupe, coupe, brother
Cup, cut, brother
Couper c'est ton boulot
Cut it's your job
La machette te casse le dos
The machete breaks your back
Fer forgé
Wrought iron
Fer forgé, sucré
Wrought iron, sweet
Coupe les murailles
Cut the walls
Coupe la tristesse
Cut the sadness
Just cut, hey brother
Just Cut, Hey Brother
Dans ton coeur, tourne
In your heart, turn
Tout autour de toi
All around you
L'histoire des jours de fête
The history of party days
Coupe dans la brousse
Cut in the bush
Coupe dans les bois
Cut in the woods
Just cut, hey brother
Just Cut, Hey Brother
Un grand amour tourne seul
A great love turns alone
Autour de toi
Around you
Il coupe la nuit qui dure
He cuts the last night
Et couper c'est ton boulot
And cut it's your job
Il faut couper les roseaux
You have to cut the reeds
D'où le sucre coule à flot
From where the sugar flows afloat
Coupe, coupe, brother
Cup, cut, brother
Couper c'est ton boulot
Cut it's your job
La machette te casse le dos
The machete breaks your back
Fer forgé
Wrought iron
Fer forgé, sucré
Wrought iron, sweet
