Les bateaux sont partis, ce soir la mer est belle
The boats have left, tonight the sea is beautiful
la vague vient vers moi comme un serpent riant
the wave comes towards me like a laughing serpent
de grands oiseaux planant autour de moi m'appellent
great birds hovering around me call me
dans le vent qui se lève
in the rising wind
c'est ta voix que j'entends
it's your voice that I hear
c'est ta voix que j'entends
it's your voice that I hear
la vague vient rouler à mes pieds sur le sable
the wave comes rolling at my feet on the sand
la trace de mes pas s'efface peu à peu
the trace of my steps fades little by little
ma tristesse aujourd'hui est inimaginable
my sadness today is unimaginable
avec cet océan qui bouge entre nous deux
with this ocean moving between us
qui bouge entre nous deux
that moves between us
les bateaux sont partis, ce soir la mer est calme
the boats have left, tonight the sea is calm
le vent qui vient des îles exhale doucement
the wind that comes from the islands gently exhales
une plainte de harpe en jouant dans les palmes
a harp complaint while playing in the palms
je regarde la mer et c'est toi que j'entends
I look at the sea and it's you I hear
et c'est toi que j'entends
and it's you I hear
j'attends que le soleil tout à coup apparaisse
I wait for the sun to suddenly appear
que son premier rayon vienne effleurer ma peau
that its first ray comes to touch my skin
l'heure d'enchantement, l'heure de la détresse
the hour of enchantment, the hour of distress
et c'est toi que j'attends qui va sortir des eaux
and it's you I'm waiting for who will come out of the waters
qui va sortir des eaux
who will come out of the waters
toi que j'attends
you i'm waiting for
qui va sortir des eaux
who will come out of the waters
