How to print counter without bracket and sort result in python ?

I need to have this final result :

1 2 3 4 5

2 : 2 3 : 3 4 : 4 5 : 3 7 : 2

But I'v got this :

1	Counter({4: 4, 3: 3, 5: 3, 2: 2, 7: 2})

Here is my code :

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

counter=collections.Counter(lst)     print(counter)     counter.keys()     for key, value in counter.items():         #print(key,":", value)         ctx = (key, value)         print(ctx)     tab.append(ctx)     tab.sort()     #print(tab)     #print(*tab, sep = "\n")

Or this result but not sorted with this print options :

1	print(key,":", value)

1 2 3 4 5

3 : 3 4 : 4 2 : 2 5 : 3 7 : 2

Thanks for any help.

If you put sorted() around counter.items() they will come out sorted.
