Elle dansait le soir
Dans son fourreau noir
La baïara de la Joliette
Obscure diva de tous les forçats
Qu’ils soient albanais ou bien grecs
Déesse des mers
Froide des flots verts
Qui battent les falaises grises
La chanson connue des îlots perdus
Aux nuits infinies des banquises
Refrain
Mais c’est des histoires
Que raconte aux escales
Un marin en cavale
Qui a changé de nom
Mais c’est des chansons
De cordage et de toile
Mystérieuses et fatales
Rescapées des typhons
Maria Bonita
Regard minéral
Aimait jouer des métaphores
Dans un portugais qui toujours chantait
La magie noire de Salvador
Les hommes se taisaient
Un silence épais
Capiteux parfum de la mort
Le regard perdu près des grands docks nus
Les rêves et les cités d’or
Mais c’est des histoires
Que raconte aux escales
Un marin en cavale
Qui a changé de nom
Mais c’est des chansons
De cordage et de toile
Mystérieuses et fatales
Rescapées des typhons
Maria Bonita
Dans son fourreau noir
La légende de la Joliette
Pouvait vous lancer d’une voix cassée
Un sort au delà des tempêtes
Parfois son sourire
Chargé de désir
Laissait un marin
Sur la plage
Marseille savait
Que ceux qui restaient
Un jour prochain
Feraient naufrage
Mais c’est des histoires
Que raconte aux escales
Un marin en cavale
Qui a changé de nom
Mais c’est des chansons
De cordage et de toile
Mystérieuses et fatales
Rescapées des typhons

Bernard Lavilliers is a French singer-songwriter born in Saint-Étienne in 1946. Coming from a modest family, he developed a passion for music at the age of four. After working in a factory, he joined the Communist Party to defend his ideals and in 1965 left for Brazil, an experience that deeply marked his worldview. His return to France led him to be considered a draft dodger and imprisoned for a year. He began singing in cabarets and in 1967 released his first single. In 1968 he released his first album, simply titled "Lavilliers", which later became his stage name. Throughout the 1970s, he achieved success with albums such as "Les poètes" (1972), "Le Stéphanois" (1975) and especially "Les Barbares" (1976). The latter consecrated him as one of the most important French singer-songwriters. Lavilliers is known for his songs that often deal with social, political and travel themes. Among his most representative tracks are "Le Grand Bleu", "La Ballade de la rue des Amants" and "Les Barbares". In 1992 he sang alongside Léo Ferré at the fête de l'Humanité. In 2004 he released the album "Carnets de bord", an ode to travel, and in 2005 the book 'Bernard Lavilliers, Escales' by Gert-Peter Bruch was published.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
