These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Mélanie aimait le mélo
Melanie loved the melodrama
Mais n'aimait pas l'eau qui relie
But didn't like the water that connects
La terre à l'angle du bateau
The land at the corner of the boat
Emportant dans la nuit
Carrying in the night
Vers des ports septentrionaux
To northern ports
La somme des sept ans d'insomnie
The sum of the seven years of insomnia
Que des projets matrimoniaux
Only matrimonial projects
Avaient trop assombris
Had too darkened
Mélanie pour un matelot
Melanie for a sailor
Accorda son lit
Granted his bed
Pourtant il lui dit à bientôt
Yet he told her to soon
Jura lui l'eau et l'infini
Jura him water and infinity
Entre les pages d'un micelle
Between the pages of a crumb
Mélanie s'emmêla les cils
Melanie tangled her eyelashes
Et pleura comme toutes celles
And wept like all those
Qui suivent les imbéciles
Who follow the fools
Quant à la suite de l'histoire
As for the rest of the story
Vous la devinez
You guessed it
Ce n'était pas la mer à boire
It wasn't the sea to drink
Et tout s'est très bien terminé
And it all ended very well
Le marin fit naufrage
The sailor was shipwrecked
Mélanie se noya
Melanie drowns
Et réunis dans les nuages
And gathered in the clouds
Ils s'aimèrent et voilà
They loved each other and that's it
