1)Adieu, ma si charmante blonde,
A qui j'ai promis mon coeur!
Je m'en vais, je m'en vais, je m'en vais
Je m'en vais voguer sur l'onde,
Belle je suis ton serviteur!
2)Malgré la pluie, malgré l'orage,
Belle, il nous faut embarquer
Embarquer, embarquer, embarquer
embarquer dessus la Seine,
c'est pour aller naviguer.
3)Mon cher amant, si tu me quittes,
cher amant, si tu t'en vas,
Souviens-toi, souviens-toi, souviens-toi,
Souviens-toi de la promesse

the memorial of his passion is renewed;
the soul is filled with grace;
and a pledge of future glory is given to us.
