See below. Explanation: Got the translation from the site below. J’ m’en vas cercler l’calanchet pour pas qu’il vente dans le labour I’m off to hoop the calanchet so that it’s not windy while I’m plowing It's hard to find a definition for calanchet. Cercler is to hoop a barrel, so perhaps some kind of container. Reference: http://www.greatfrenchsongs.com/2009/10/translation-of-a-la-... |
