C'est presque au bout du monde
Ma barque vagabonde
Errante au gré de l'onde
M'y conduisit un jour
L'île est toute petite
Mais la fée qui l'habite
Gentiment nous invite
A en faire le tour
C'est le pays de nos désirs
C'est le bonheur, c'est le plaisir
C'est la terre où l'on quitte tous les soucis
C'est, dans notre nuit, comme une éclaircie
L'étoile qu'on suit
C'est Youkali
Et la vie nous entraîne
Lassante, quotidienne
Mais la pauvre âme humaine
Cherchant partout l'oubli
A pour quitter la terre
Su trouver le mystère
Où nos rêves se terrent
En quelques Youkali...
C'est le pays de nos désirs
C'est le bonheur, c'est le plaisir
C'est la terre où l'on quitte tous les soucis
C'est, dans notre nuit, comme une éclaircie
L'étoile qu'on suit
C'est Youkali, c'est Youkali, c'est Youkali
lost at sea, afloat,
my wandering little boat,
drifting with the waves,
led me to a place.
a tiny scrap of island,
but the girl that lived there smiled and
invited me to open
my heart to youkali.
youkali,
the land of our desire and dreams,
youkali,
where everything is what it seems,
youkali,
a place where one can leave all cares and regrets,
a star in the night,
a path shining bright,
a hope that we might
find youkali.
youkali,
it is the home of all we hold in our prayers,
youkali,
it is the country of the love that we share,
it's the hope
that lives inside the heart of all mankind,
the answer that
we wait for 'til the end of time,
youkali,
the land of our desire and dreams,
youkali,
where everything is what it seems,
but it isn't real,
it's just a dream,
it isn't there in youkali...
we only see
what we want to see,
not really there in youkali...
only weariness survives
our cold and hardened lives,
when hope has all but died,
we still seek to forget,
to leave our earthly sorrows,
find solace in tomorrows,
the mystery that enthralls those
who search for youkali.
youkali,
the land of our desire and dreams,
youkali,
where everything is what it seems,
youkali,
a place where one can leave all cares and regrets,
a star in the night,
a path shining bright,
