Le cœur grenadine [English translation]

I let in a mandarin

A navy blue nutshel*

A piece of my heart and a sail

Hidden under the tropical wind

In a sweet country

I am born in the grey by mistake

In my drawers in my sleep

Nice Doudou** under the sun

I let on a world map

Between Capricorn and Cancer

Dots surrounded by water

A still-bodied girl

But to dance the biguine well

My skin would need to touche your skin

You are far away, so far away from me

that I don't dance the biguine

Ref :

I have grenadine heart oh...

I have grenadine heart

No sun on my skin

I'm having, having, having nights and nights

Nights stroking paper

Letters from you

But paper is not terrific

I would love some much, so much, so much to be there

With you

At 5 miles behind the sea

Remains of salt on your lids

Tormented, your body soaking wet

Think about me, about me a lot

But to sleep good during the day

It would need pleasure all night

You are far away, so far away from me

that I don't have any pleasure

Ref

In a sweet country

I am born in the grey by mistake

All my heart staid there

In this country I don't know

I have grenadine heart (x2)

*nutshel may also refer to a very small boat

** literally "cuddly toy", is used as a sweet name
