Je Suis Né au Millieu de la Mer [English translation]

And I was born in waves profound

In the seaweed land.

My little white cot

'S still a bit hot.

Brooms in blossom

There, in my home,

Have been gilders

(Of) all my summers.

And I was born in waves profound

In seaweed land.

My father was once a sailor

I have joined him

In the sea depths.

About this war

He's still singing

As before death,

At night, at day,

His love of streams.

My father was once a sailor

I have joined him.

My mother, too, her days, her nights

Some rest, some worries.

Her hands so hard ,

Her hair turned white.

Yet, still some warmths

Remain in her heart,

Close to the hearth

Of memories.

I am still in the waves so deep

In the land of Sleep.
