Sur la plage abandonnée
On the abandoned beach
Coquillage et crustacés
Shellfish and crustaceans
Qui l'eût cru déplorent la perte de l'été
Who would have thought they lamented the loss of summer
Qui depuis s'en est allé
Who has since gone
On a rangé les vacances
We put away the holidays
Dans des valises en carton
In cardboard suitcases
Et c'est triste quand on pense à la saison
And it's sad when we think about the season
Du soleil et des chansons
Sun and songs
Pourtant je sais bien l'année prochaine
Yet I know well next year
Tout refleurira nous reviendrons
Everything will bloom again we will come back
Mais en attendant je suis en peine
But in the meantime I'm in trouble
De quitter la mer et ma maison
To leave the sea and my house
Le mistral va s'habituer
The mistral will get used to
A courir sans les voiliers
To run without the sailboats
Et c'est dans ma chevelure ébouriffée
And it's in my tousled hair
Qu'il va le plus me manquer
That I will miss him the most
Le soleil mon grand copain
The sun my big friend
Ne me brûlera que de loin
Will only burn me from afar
Croyant que nous sommes ensemble un peu fâchés
Believing we're together a little angry
D'être tous deux séparés
To both be separated
Le train m'emmènera vers l'automne
The train will take me to autumn
Retrouver la ville sous la pluie
Finding the city in the rain
Mon chagrin ne sera pour personne
My sorrow will not be for anyone
Je le garderai comme un ami
I will keep him as a friend
Mais aux premiers jours d'été
But in the first days of summer
Tous les ennuis oubliés
All the troubles forgotten
Nous reviendrons faire la fête aux crustacés
We will come back to party with shellfish
De la plage ensoleillée
From the sunny beach
De la plage ensoleillée
From the sunny beach
De la plage ensoleillée
From the sunny beach
