La mer qu'on voit danser
Le long des golfes clairs
A des reflets d'argent
La mer des reflets changeants
Sous la pluie
La mer au ciel d'�t�
Confond ses blancs moutons
Avec les anges si purs
La mer berg�re d'azur
Infinie
Voyez pr�s des �tangs
Ces grands roseaux mouill�s
Voyez ces oiseaux blancs
Et ces maisons rouill�es
La mer les a berc�s
Le long des golfes clairs
Et d'une chanson d'amour
La mer a berc� mon coeur
Pour la vie
English Version
Somewhere beyond the sea,
Somewhere, waiting for me,
My lover stands on golden sands
And watches the ships that go sailing;
Somewhere beyond the sea,
He's (She's) there watching for me.
If I could fly like birds on high,
Then straight to his (her) arms I'd go sailing.
It's far beyond a star,
It's near beyond the moon,
I know beyond a doubt
My heart will lead me there soon.
We'll meet beyond the shore,
We'll kiss just as before.
Happy we'll be beyond the sea,
And never again I'll go sailing!
