Red face A question about The Professor/La Fille Danse

For those of you familliar with "The Professor" you know that Damien sings in French at the end of the song. It is beautiful and I would love to know the translation of it. I have had it translated on "free translation" sites, but it comes out pretty broken and hard to understand. So for those of you who understand French, help would be appreciated. Thank you so much!

Thumbs up The traduction by a french girl

Hi everybody I'm french so it's not very difficult for me to understand what he's saying. I wanna give you the lyrics in french and my traduction :

La fille danse
Quand elle joue avec moi
Et je pense que je l'aime des fois
Le silence, n'ose pas dis-donc
Quand on est ensemble
Mettre les mots
Sur la petite dodo

This means :
The girl dances
When she's playing with me
And I think that I like her sometimes.
The silence doesn't,
When we are together
Put the words
On the small dodo.


I not sure of the traduction of dodo it's maybe a surname.

I hope you'll appreciate my traduction
