Je suis rentré d'Indochine hier matin
I returned from Indochina yesterday morning
J'ai rapporté des dahlias et du jasmin
I brought back dahlias and jasmine
J'y ai laissé ma jeunesse et ma moto
I left my youth and my motorcycle there
Je suis rentré d'Indochine
I returned from Indochina
Sur la piste Ho-Chi-Minh j'aurais dansé
On the Ho-Chi-Minh dance floor I would have danced
En l'honneur du Vietminh j'aurais fumé
In honor of the Vietminh I would have smoked
Je suis rentré d'Indochine hier matin
I returned from Indochina yesterday morning
J'ai rapporté des dahlias et du jasmin
I brought back dahlias and jasmine
Bob Morane est étendu
Bob Morane is lying
Brigitte Béjot entendue
Brigitte Béjot heard
Voilà un singe en hiver
Here's a monkey in winter
J'entends plus les hélicoptères
I don't hear the helicopters anymore
Je suis rentré d'Indochine et j'ai trouvé
I came back from Indochina and found
Une vie bien trop facile, bête à crever
A life far too easy, stupid to die
J'ai déposé mes dahlias et mon jasmin
I put down my dahlias and my jasmine
Je suis reparti, j'ai dit salut, j'vais voir plus loin
I left, I said hi, I'm going to see further
Plus loin c'est toujours l'indo que j'ai trouvé
Further on, it’s always Indo that I found
Partout c'est l'indo, ma vie ça on le sait
Everywhere it's Indo, we know that in my life
Et depuis je pars toutes les nuits
And since then I leave every night
Je dépose un dahlia
I leave a dahlia
au pied de nos vies
at the foot of our lives
Voilà un singe en hiver
Here's a monkey in winter
J'entends plus les hélicoptères
I don't hear the helicopters anymore
