Mon gentil pêcheur ramène tes filets
My kind fisherman brings back your nets
Ton cœur est ailleurs ça ne mordra jamais
Your heart is elsewhere it will never bite
L'amour empêche d'y voir clair
Love prevents you from seeing clearly
Et tu es amoureux la grande pêche
And you are in love with the big peach
Dans la mer est un métier sérieux
In the sea is a serious profession
Mon gentil marin rentrons à la maison
My nice sailor let's go home
Tu as pris ma main c'est un joli poisson
You took my hand it's a pretty fish
Tu es bredouille t'en fais pas
You're empty-handed, don't worry
Ton patron va crier à la grenouille
Your boss will shout at the frog
T'en fais pas il t'enverra pêcher
Don't worry, he'll send you fishing
La laï la
La lay la
Mon gentil pêcheur ramène tes filets
My kind fisherman brings back your nets
Pour pêcher mon cœur ça sera vite fait
To fish my heart it will be done quickly
Viens faire escale dans mes yeux
Come and stop in my eyes
Laisse là tes poissons pêche une étoile
Leave your fish there fishing for a star
Dans mes yeux sur mes lèvres ton nom
In my eyes on my lips your name
Mon gentil marin tu dois rentrer au port
My kind sailor you must return to port
Tu me tiens la main
You hold my hand
Tiens la plus fort encore puisque tu m'aimes
Hold it tighter since you love me
Dis le-moi devant toute la mer
Tell me in front of the whole sea
Puisque tu m'aimes dis le-moi
Since you love me tell me
Devant tout l'univers la laï la
In front of the whole universe la la la la
