En attendant Godot is the original French title of Waiting for Godot. Samuel Beckett wrote the play - in French - in 1952 and it was first performed in Paris 1953. Following the success in Paris, Beckett himself translated it into English in 1954.

Estragon : Allons-nous-en. 
Vladimir : On ne peut pas. 
Estragon : Pourquoi ? 
Vladimir : On attend Godot. 
Estragon : C'est vrai. 

( Let's go.
  We can't.
  Why not?
  BECAUSE... we're waiting for Godot!
  Oh!   )

"Je ne sais pas qui est Godot. je ne sais même pas, surtout pas, s'il existe." -- Samuel Beckett
