Il était un petit navire

Chansons Enfantines Chansons Enfantines

There was a little ship

There was a little ship {x2}
That had ne-ne-never sailed {x2}
Hey! Hey!

{Chorus:}
Hey! Hey! Sailor,
Sailor sails on the waves
Hey! Hey! Sailor,
Sailor sails on the waves

He set off on a long journey {x2}
On the Mediterranean sea {x2}
Hey! Hey!

After five to six weeks,
The supplies be-be-began to run out
Hey! Hey!

They drew straws,
To find out who-who-who would be eaten,
Hey! Hey!

The lot fell on the youngest,
Who had ne-ne-never sailed
Hey! Hey!

They then wondered in what way,
The poor child-child-child would be eaten,
Hey! Hey!

One wanted to fry him,
The other wanted-wanted to fricassee him,
Hey! Hey!

While they were deliberating like this,
He climbed up-up-up to the main topmast,
Hey! Hey!

He prayed to the sky,
Questioning-ing-ing the immensity,
Hey! Hey!

But looking at the entire sea,
He saw waves-waves-waves on all sides,
Hey! Hey!

Oh! Holy Virgin my patroness,
Cried the po-po-poor unfortunate one,
Hey! Hey!

If I have sinned, quickly forgive,
Prevent-them-them from eating me,
Hey! Hey!

At that moment a great miracle,
Was-was-was performed for the child,
Hey! Hey!

Little fish in the ship,
Jumped out-out-out by the thousands,
Hey! Hey!

They were caught, they were fried,
The young mou-mou-mousse was saved,
Hey! Hey!

If this story amuses you,
We will re-re-restart it,
Hey! Hey!
