Very special thanks to @Superibis. for helping me figure out what the choir was singing!
What do you do when you're responsible to adapt lyrics written by a masterclass lyricist like Stephen Schwartz? Well, you call your best lyricist, of course...no, better call the best two. This is the totally accurate story of how Luc Aulivier and Philippe Videcoq ended up collaborating on the adaptation of the European French lyrics of Pocahontas. And in a song like "Mine Mine Mine", with all its puns and wordplays, they must have had so much fun inventing their own puns. Not their best shot, in my opinion, but doubtlessly a very good one nonetheless.
The lyrics include a massive use of the word "or" ("gold") repeated as part of other words, as well as the word "mine", which in French can mean "(gold) mine" or be the imperative form (singular only) of the verb "to mine" (it can also mean "face, facial expression" or "apparence", like at 0:14). But it NEVER means "mine" as in "belonging to me".
*01:04 – « Et piquent les piques/nt les piques »: since the words “piques” (“pickaxes”) and “piquent” (“[they] pickaxe”) sound exactly the same, the line was shaped so that the first two “pique*” could play both as “piques” and “piquent”, making them both subject to the previous verb and verb to the following subject [Luc, Philippe… I missed you so, guys]
