Le long du quai les grands vaisseaux | |
(Along the quay, the great ships) | |
Que la houle incline en silence | |
(Silently swaying on the swell of the waves) | |
Ne prennent pas garde aux berceaux | |
(They pay no attention to the cradles) | |
Que la main des femmes balance | |
(Rocked by womens' hands) | |
Mais viendra le jour des adieux | |
(But the day of good-byes will come) | |
Car il faut que les femmes pleurent | |
(For women must weep) | |
Et que les hommes curieux | |
(And restless men) | |
Tentent les horizons qui leurent | |
(Must seek out alluring horizons) | |
Et ce jour-là les grands vaisseaux | |
(And on that day the great ships) | |
Fuyant le port qui diminue | |
(Leaving the port that diminishes behind them) | |
Sentent leur masse retenue | |
(Feel their hulls held back) | |
Par l'âme des lointains berceaux | |
(By the soul of the distant cradles) | |
Par l'âme des lointains berceaux | |
(By the soul of the distant cradles) |
