C'est un fameux trois-mâts fin comme un oiseau

Hisse et ho, Santiano!

Dix huit nœuds, quatre cent tonneaux

Je suis fier d'y être matelot

Tiens bon la barre et tiens bon le vent

Hisse et ho, Santiano!

Si Dieu veut toujours droit devant

Nous irons jusqu'à San Francisco

Oh, the wind was foul and the seas ran high

Heave away, Santiano!

She shipped it green and none went by

Along the plains of Mexico

Tiens bon la barre et tiens bon le vent

Hisse еt ho (Hisse et ho), Santiano!

Si Dieu vеut toujours droit devant

Nous irons jusqu'à San Francisco

Je pars pour de longs mois en laissant

Margot Hisse et ho, Santiano!

D'y penser j'avais le cœur gros

En doublant les feux de Saint-Malo

Tiens bon la barre et tiens bon le vent

Hisse et ho (Hisse et ho), Santiano!

Si Dieu veut toujours droit devant

Nous irons jusqu'à San Francisco

We swear by rote for want of more

Heave away, Santiano!

But now we're through so we'll go on shore

Along the plains of Mexico

Tiens bon la barre et tiens bon le vent

Hisse et ho (Hisse et ho), Santiano!

Si Dieu veut toujours droit devant

Nous irons jusqu'à San Francisco

Tiens bon la barre et tiens bon le vent

Hisse et ho (Hisse et ho), Santiano!

Si Dieu veut toujours droit devant

Nous irons jusqu'à San Francisco
