Lève les voiles, ô voilier blanc
Raise the sails, oh white sailing ship
Mais lève au vent qui tourne
But raise to the wind that turns
Lève les voiles sur d'autres chemins
Raise the sails on different paths
Rêvant de voir la fin
Dreaming of seeing the end
Tombée d'étoiles, cette nuit qui chante
Falling stars, this singing night
De vivre au gré du temps
Living at the mercy of time
Mais lève les voiles, ô voilier blanc
But raise the sails, oh white sailing ship
Mais lève quand tourne le vent
But raise when the wind turns
