Dis à ton capitaine [English translation]

Tell your captain that I love you

Tell your captain that I get bored without you

Tell your capitain that I love you

Tell your captain that I need you

Next summer, for the holidays

From the 10th of July to the end of August

I promised my Aunt Hortense

Who has invited us to Lavandou

Tell your captain, so that he understands

Tell your captain, so that he does this for me

Tell your captain that I love you

But you know that, between us, he doesn't have every good taste

You have a shabby jacket

Your trousers are poorly tailored

And your dreadful shoes

Embarass me too much to dance with you

It hurts me because I love you

Tell your captain that I'm really upset

Tell your captain that I love you

That it hurts so much to be so far from you

It's only been four weeks

It's an eternity

Oh yes, waiting til you come back

To cover me with your kisses

And if we're lucky enough for him to understand

Before you go, tell him thanks on my behalf

And if we're lucky enough for him to understand

Give your captain a big kiss from me.
