Canopée Lyrics in English POLO , PAN

Home / Lyrics Translation / POLO / Canopée

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Canopée by POLO from French to English.

Improbable story of a fantasy

Close to the equator at a precise point

Latitude 500 longitude 36

In the heart of the forest at this opening

In your verdant Eve attire

You were stunningly beautiful

Birds sang us their chant

And we lived happy in the canopy

Wild jungle, open your arms

You and I don't need much

Let's take root in the woods

Naive kids or outlaws

Skittles stuck in a stream

They listen to that weird bird singing

He invites us a little higher

To share our ideals

Memorable story of a daydream

That we lived together in the Amazon

A return to our roots, life without artifices

The two of us in the forest, far from curses

In the dark, lush torpor

Of a jungle with exuberant vines

The age-old trees adopted us

And we lived happy in the canopy

Wild jungle, open your arms

You and I don't need much

Let's take root in the woods

Naive kids or outlaws

Skittles stuck in a stream

Listen to that weird bird sing

He invites us a little higher

To share our ideals

Canopée invites you to swing on vines of imagination and love. POLO and PAN paint a dreamy escape deep in the Amazon, somewhere at the fictional coordinates “latitude 500, longitude 36.” Here, two lovers reinvent Eden: she appears in a “verdoyante tenue d’Ève,” birds supply the soundtrack, and millenary trees welcome them like family. The canopy becomes a natural cathedral where everything artificial melts away, leaving only raw beauty, freedom, and wonder.

Beneath the lush leaves the duo celebrates a life lived off-grid—part innocent child, part playful outlaw. They plant their “quilles” (bowling pins) in a brook, listen to a mysterious bird beckon them higher, and promise to share their ideals from this green rooftop of the world. The song is a tropical postcard that whispers, “It takes so little for you and me,” urging us to root ourselves in nature and rediscover joy, simplicity, and togetherness.
