The bells of the village The bells of the village Are singing in the country The sound of the bells Brighten up the mountain We hear, we hear The shepherds, the shepherds Singing in the prairies Those refrains so light That charm their (female) friends: Tra la la, tra la la la la la Tra la la la la la la la la la la Tra la la, tra la la la la la Tra la la la la la la la la la la It's time for return And the young shepherdess Seeing the end of the day Goes back to her home When in the rock The storm is raging Around the old fireplace Happily we sing
