Le Petit Danseur

Je suis le petit danseur
Attachant les rubans sur mes chaussures de pointe,
Vérifiant mes cheveux dans le miroir.

Dans ma pirouette, je me plie,
Puis la torsion autour et repèrent mon visage
Un, deux, trois fois et effectue une finition gracieuse.

Je suis le petit danseur
Travaillant dans le studio.
La sueur fonctionne en bas de mon dos.

Je suis le petit danseur
Tournoyer et tourner
Faisant ce que j'aime.

~

I am the little dancer
Tying the ribbons on my pointe shoes,
checking my hair in the mirror.

In my pirouette, I bend,
Then twist around and spot my face
One, two, three times and perform a graceful finish.

I am the little dancer
working in the studio.
Sweat runs down my back.

I am the little dancer
Twirling and spinning
Doing what I love.
