Sur le sable,
face à la merSe dresse là,
un cimetièreOù les cyprès comme des lancesSont les gardiens de son silence.Sur le sable,
des lits de ferSont plantés là,
face à la merMon ami,
la mort t'a emmenéEn son bateau pour l'éternité.Si on allait au cimetièreVoir mon nom gravé sur la pierre,Saluer les morts face à la mer,Ivres de vie dans la lumiere.Dans la chaleur,
le silenceA l'heure où les cyprès se balancentLes morts reposent au cimetièreSous le sable,
face à la mer.
