lyrics

LA MER DE MARMARA

Comme sur la mer de Marmara
Deux points de mire étroits
se devinent; Deux détroits
Pour toi et moi
Pris entre les deux eaux
Nos amours murmurent
Leurs échos, parmi les murs
De marbre indigo

Et d’un côté l’acide d’un côté l’amer
Donnent marre à mes nerfs qui égarent les amers

J’ai vu où amenèrent
Les désirs barbares
Tantôt, dare-dare
Par les Dardanelles
Tantôt vers le Bosphore
Où jamais bord à bord
C’était comme du phosphore
Sur mon cœur

Je me sens jadis janissaire
Arraché à ses terres
Bataillant à travers
A tort, pour Byzance, ses trésors
Et dans tes yeux de paille
D’éclats de calcédoine
Mes souvenirs s’éloignent
Taillés en Macédoine

Et d’un côté l’acide d’un côté l’amer
Donnent marre à mes nerfs qui égarent les amers

Sur la mer de Marmara
Régnait un califat
Mais ce panorama
C’est fini
Faire sauter le cadenas!
Trouver l’issue…
Mais pour me sortir de là
J’en implore à Janus
