Gruissan mes amours
Gruissan, my loves
Gruissan, Gruissan mes amours
Gruissan, Gruissan, my loves
Je pense à toi depuis bientôt toujours
I've been thinking of you almost forever
Oui je pense
Yes, I'm thinking
À la chance
About the chance
De revenir en vacances
To return on vacation
Sur ta plage qui s'éveille
To your beach that wakes up
Au soleil
In the sunlight
Gruissan, Gruissan mes amours
Gruissan, Gruissan, my loves
Je reverrai ton village à l'entour
I will see your village again all around
Et la tour
And the tower
Barberousse
Barbarossa
Qui se mire, grave et douce
That reflects, solemn and sweet
Dans les eaux de l'étang
In the waters of the pond
Palpitant
Throbbing
J'irai, si je m'en souviens
I will go, if I remember
Jouer encore aux Indiens
To play Indian once more
Rêver dans les pilotis
To dream in the stilts
Au temps où j'étais petit
In the days when I was small
Gruissan, d'hier ou d'alors
Gruissan, from yesterday or then
Et d'aujourd'hui, éblouissant décor,
And from today, a dazzling scene,
J'ai le cœur qui balance
I have a heart that's swaying,
Et qui rythme la cadence
And keeping time with the rhythm,
D'un bateau plein d'amour dans ton port.
Of a boat full of love in your harbor.
