Escale, pt. 2

Édith Piaf

Original text

Le ciel est bleu, la mer est verte

Laisse un peu la f’n?tre ouverte

Le flot qui roule?

l’horizon

Me fait penser?

un gar?

on

Qui ne croyait ni Dieu ni Diable

Je l’ai rencontr?

vers le nord

Un soir d’escale sur un port

Dans un bastringue abominable

L’air sentait la sueur et l’alcool

Il ne portait pas de faux-col

Mais un douteux foulard de soie

En entrant, je n’ai vu que lui

Et mon coeur en fut?

bloui de joie

Le ciel est bleu, la mer est verte

Laisse un peu la f’n?tre ouverte

Il me prit la main sans un mot

Il m’entra?na hors du bistrot

Tout simplement d’un geste tendre

Ce n'?tait pas un compliqu?

Il demeurait le long du quai

Je n’ai pas cherch??

comprendre

Sa chambre donnait sur le port

Des marins souls chantaient dehors

Un bec de gaz, un halo bl?

me

Eclairait le triste r?

duit

Qu’il m'?crasait tout contre lui

Je t’aime

Le ciel est bleu, la mer est verte

Laisse un peu la f’n?tre ouverte

Son baiser me br?

le toujours

Est-ce l?

ce qu’on dit l’amour

Son bateau mouillait dans la rade

Chassant les ombres de la nuit

Au jour naissant il s’est enfui

Pour rejoindre ses camarades

Je l’ai vu monter sur le pont

Et si je ne sais pas son nom

Je connais celui du navire

Un navire qui s’est perdu

Quant au marin

Nul n’en peut plus rien dire

Le ciel est bas, la mer est grise

Ferme la f’n?tre?

la brise

Song translation

The sky is blue, the sea is green

Leave the window open a bit

The rolling tide?

the horizon

Make me think?

a guy?

we

Who believed neither God nor Devil

I met him?

to the north

An evening stopover at a port

In an abominable club

The air smelled of sweat and alcohol

He wasn't wearing a collar

But a dubious silk scarf

As I walked in, I only saw him

And my heart was in it?

dazzled with joy

The sky is blue, the sea is green

Leave the window open a bit

He took my hand without a word

He dragged me out of the bistro

Simply with a tender gesture

It was not a complicated

He lived along the quay

I didn't search??

to understand

His room overlooked the harbor

Soulful sailors were singing outside

A gaslight, a halo bl?

me

Was lighting up the sad r?

duct

That he crushed me all against him

I love you

The sky is blue, the sea is green

Leave the window open a bit

His kiss br?

always

Is this the

what they say love

His boat was anchored in the harbor

Chasing the shadows of the night

At daybreak he fled

To join his comrades

I saw him come on deck

And if I don't know his name

I know the one from the ship

A ship that got lost

As for the sailor

No one can say anything more

The sky is low, the sea is gray

Close the window?

the breeze
