Lyrics
Il est le matelot
Il est le loup marin
Il est le cheval de mer
Le carnivore
Il est le vol-au-vent
Le courage est son nid
Il passe pour félin
L’oeil vers le phare
Oh toi le matelot
L’aventurier cochon
Le cadeau des putains
Le carnassier des îles
Le vieux saoulon
Tu verras le rubis
Du rocher du soleil
On ira t’y rejoindre
Lorsqu’on aura l’oseille
Oh toi le matelot
Brisé porté devant
Le matelot
Sur son navire
Sur l’eau
Si un jour tu reviens
Au pays des copains
On te fera une fête
Mais on ne t’aimera plus
Oh toi le matelot
Lyrics translation
He's the sailor.
He is the Sea Wolf
He is the sea horse
Carnivore
It is the vol-au-vent
Courage is her nest
He passes for feline
The eye towards the lighthouse
Oh you the sailor
The pig adventurer
The gift of whores
The island carnivore
The old drunk
You'll see the Ruby
From the rock of the sun
We'll join you there
When we get sorrel
Oh you the sailor
Broken worn in front
Sailor
On his ship
On the water
If one day you come back
In the land of friends
We'll throw you a party.
But we won't love you anymore
Oh you the sailor
