Toward the docks where weight and boredom

Bend my back

They arrive, bellies heavy with fruit

The ships

They come from the end of the world

Carrying with them vagabond ideas reflecting blue skies

Of mirages

Trailing a peppery scent of unknown lands

And endless summers where you live almost naked

On the beaches

I, who my whole life have known

Only northern skies

I'd like to scrub away this gray

By changing course

Take me to the end of the earth

Take me to wonderland

It seems to me that misery

Would hurt less in the sun

In the bars at dusk

With the sailors

When we talk girls and love, a glass in hand

I lose the sense of things and suddenly my mind

Lifts me and sets me down, a marvelous summer

On the shore

Where I see, arms outstretched, love that like a madman

Runs at me and I hang on the neck

Of my dream

When the bars close, when the sailors

Go back aboard

I still dream till morning

Standing on the pier

Take me to the end of the earth

Take me to wonderland

It seems to me that misery

Would hurt less in the sun

One fine day on a creaking tub

From keel to deck

To set off I'll work down in the coal hold

Taking the route that leads to my childhood dreams

To distant islands where nothing matters

Except living

Where languid girls steal your heart

While braiding, I'm told, those leis

That intoxicate

I'll run away, leaving my past behind

With no remorse

With no luggage and my heart set free

Singing out loud

Take me to the end of the earth

Take me to wonderland

It seems to me that misery

Would hurt less in the sun

Take me to the end of the earth

Take me to wonderland

It seems to me that misery

Would hurt less in the sun
