It's kind of ironic for me to do this, but I've done my best to make an English-language version of this song, out of sheer boredom: thought I would share it with you guys, since you'll likely enjoy it as much as I do. Note, some liberties have been taken with the lyrics in order to preserve the song's flow. So, without further ado, here you all go! ======================================== The English king Declared himself to be the King of France By his own decision. He wished to lead, Out from their homes and fields: The good Frenchmen, Forced from their motherland. But he was killed, At Saint-Fiacre-en-Brie... From the lands of France, They have all been repelled: There's no more word of these tailed Englishmen. May God condemn the whole of England's people! English ships charged, our artillery by sea, With plenty soldiers, and each one a canteen. And by the sea, They travelled to Biscay, To coronate Their little Godon king. But their effort Was just a mockery: Capitaine Prégent Gave them a good beating, So that they all Were in the seas entombed. May God condemn the whole of England's people! The English king Declared himself to be the King of France By his own decision. He wished to lead, Out from their homes and fields: The good Frenchmen, Forced from their motherland. But he was killed, At Saint-Fiacre-en-Brie... From the lands of France, They have all been repelled: There's no more word of these tailed Englishmen. May God condemn the whole of England's people!
I listen to this on repeat. Wonderful music!

The English king
Declared himself to be
the King of France
By his own decision.
He wished to lead,
Out from their homes and fields:
The good Frenchmen,
Forced from their motherland.
But he was killed,
At Saint-Fiacre-en-Brie...
From the lands of France,
They have all been repelled:
There's no more word
of these tailed Englishmen.
May God condemn the whole of England's people!
English ships charged,
our artillery by sea,
With plenty soldiers,
and each one a canteen.
And by the sea,
They travelled to Biscay,
To coronate
Their little Godon king.
But their effort
Was just a mockery:
Capitaine Prégent
Gave them a good beating,
So that they all
Were in the seas entombed.
May God condemn the whole of England's people!

England and France are no longer enemies!
