La mer [English translation]

Tired by the buildings' sadness

I feel the mother sick (sea sick) which comes to me

Hoist up the sails and live tenderly

The sea is my mother

And the bitter she takes it away

My troubles and agonies

In her waves she burries them

I go away

To see the sea

I go away

To see my mother

To drown myself

I don't care

If it's in my mother's arms

I go away

To see the sea

I go away

To see my mother

To breathe

I'm running out of air

I go back to my mother

Years go by and her spays remain to me

Some sand in my jacket's pockets

Between her squall I don't mind to be lost

The sea is my mother

And the bitter she takes it away

My troubles and agonies

In her waves she burries them

I go away

To see the sea

I go away

To see my mother

To drown myself

I don't care

If it's in my mother's arms

I go away

To see the sea

I go away

To see my mother

To breathe

I'm running out of air

I go back to my mother

A wave, so sketchy

Me I'm raving

I'm feeling well, her beach

I would take another cup

Of these waves ...

Of these waves ...

Of these waves ...

I go back to my mother

I go away

To see the sea

I go away

To see my mother

To drown myself

I don't care

If it's in my mother's arms

I go away

To see the sea

I go away

To see my mother

To breathe

I'm running out of air

I go back to my mother
