Lyrics
«Carpe Diem» de bon matin
Sa main sur la mienne
J’oublie ce que je sais
Même ce qui m’attend
C’est lui qui m’emmène
Au large on fredonne
Des airs à contretemps
Au temps on se cramponne
Rèvisant les caprices du vent
Jackadi «viens»
Jack a sa philosophie
«Sais-tu seulement ce que sera demain?
Oubile-le pour aujourd’hui»
Mon capitaine a ses raisons
Et ses façons quotidiennes
Je n’y résiste pas
Même si j’essaie, même si je peine
C’est lui qui m’entraine
Au large on entonne
Des airs à contre-courant
Facilement on se cantonne
Aux sifflements du vent
Jackadi «viens»
Lyrics translation
"Carpe Diem" Good Morning
His hand on mine
I forget what I know
Even what awaits me
He's taking me.
Off we hum
Airs at odds
In time we cling
Revisiting the whims of the wind
Jackadi " come»
Jack has his philosophy
"Do you only know what tomorrow will be?
Forget it for today»
My captain has his reasons
And its daily ways
I can't resist it.
Even if I try, even if I struggle
It is he who trains me
Off we intone
Countercurrent tunes
Easily one confines
To the whistles of the wind
Jackadi " come»
