Select language to translate this lyric

(agnes) winter's almost gone
and spring's upon us!
my feet are warm
(minguet) and so are mine
(agnes) god has seen it fit
to shine his mercy on us
merci, bon dieu
(minguet) merci, mon dieu
(agnes + minguet) another spring is on the way
we'll live to see another may
we're still alive
and here to say
merci, bon dieu
merci bon dieu
(minguet) the wolves were on the run
by late december
(agnes) the packs were few
the toll was small
damage from the fire
was very slight, remember!
(minguet) owing to the flood!
(agnes + minguet) so all in all!
it wasn't bad, as winters go
(agnes) i froze my nose!
(minguet) i lost a toe!
(agnes + minguet) at least we're both
above the snow
merci, bon dieu!
merci, bon dieu!
(agnes) the pestilence was mild
(minguet) praise be to heaven!
(agnes) a little pox
(minguet) a minor scourge
(agnes + minuget) at least it wasn't like
the plague of twenty-seven!
merci, bon dieu
merci, bon dieu
(minguet) a little rash
but it'll clear
(agnes) it's starting now
don't dissapear!
(agnes + minguet) remember what
we caught last year
merci, bon dieu
merci, bon dieu
the famine has been worse
(agnes) i'm not complaining
i lost some wait
(minguet) i'm still ahead!
i lost so much before that actually i'm gaining
even as i lose!
(agnes + minguet) so like we said!
the sun will thaw the ice again
(minguet) i'll take a bath
(agnes) remember when!
(agnes + minguet) we took a bath!
we will again!
merci, bon dieu
merci, bon dieu
merci, bon dieu
