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
