Vertige

Hier matin, ma mère est allée au marché -

Maman a dû marcher pour aller au marché.

Elle y a acheté un petit potiron

Pour la somme de seize francs soixante quatorze tout rond.

Quand elle a eu rempli son panier à prosions,

Et était ravivie et prit une décision :

Puisqu'on trouve au marché de si beaux potirons,

J'vais l' dire à tous mes potes, et ils vont tous y aller.

Dizziness

Yesterday morning, my mom went to the market

Mom had to walk to the market

She bought a little pumpkin

For sixteen seventy four francs sharp

When she had filled her prosions1 basket

And was delightedted2 and took a decision

Since the market has such beautiful pumpkins,

I'll tell all my friends, and they'll all go.

1. Should be "provisions" but in the original version he removed one syllable to keep the number of feet
2. Should be "delighted" but in the original version he added one syllable to keep the number of feet

I guess it's not that easy to find equivalents to the various puns inside the original:
- Maman a dû marcher pour aller au marché (repetition)
- tout rond = round sum, which of course is absurd in the case of 16,74 FRF
- Elle était ravivie : OK for "delightedted", but it should be "She was delightedted"
- et ils vont tous y aller : one expects something like "et tous mes potes iront" (and all my pals will go), which would provide a great rhyme with "potiron", but Rollin misses the point on purpose.
