[Verse 1]
Four couple pon di catamaran
Two week smile
We leave di land
Eden Island fading small behind
Salt on skin
We feel so kind
Mahé blue
We glide
We glide
Map on table
Rum on di side
Captain laugh
“Next stop
Praslin”
Sun drop low
We dive right in
[Chorus]
We sailin’ Seychelles sweet
My friend (so sweet)
From Eden breeze to Praslin end (oh yeah)
La Digue love and Curieuse sand
Cousin birds fly over we hand
We sailin’ Seychelles sweet again
Every wave a brand new friend
Four heart pair pon one big sea
Island to island
You and me
[Verse 2]
Praslin morning
Bakery man
Warm bread
Coconut in we hand
We walk Anse Lazio so slow
Footprint wash where di small waves flow
La Digue bike
No car
Just bell
Limon grass and a kola smell
Granite rock like a giant art
Night time dance
Moon light di heart (hey!)
[Chorus]
We sailin’ Seychelles sweet
My friend (so sweet)
From Eden breeze to Praslin end
La Digue love and Curieuse sand
Cousin birds fly over we hand
We sailin’ Seychelles sweet again
Every wave a brand new friend
Four heart pair pon one big sea
Island to island
You and me
[Bridge]
Curieuse turtle watch we pass
Slow slow life
No need fi rush fast
Cousin birds sing high in di tree
We sing low harmony on di sea (ooh yeah)
Back round Mahé
Last sunset glow
Say
“Next year
We haffi come back
You know”
Four couple
One story
One sky so wide
Seychelles stay sailin’ inside
[Chorus]
We sailin’ Seychelles sweet
My friend (so sweet)
From Eden breeze to Praslin end
La Digue love and Curieuse sand
Cousin birds fly over we hand
We sailin’ Seychelles sweet again
Every wave a brand new friend
Four heart pair pon one big sea
Island to island

Musikstil
Laid-back creole reggae groove, mid-tempo skank guitar and warm island bass, light percussion with shakers and rim clicks. Male vocals riding an easy wave, call-and-response hooks in the chorus, soft organ bubbles in the background. Energy grows from intimate storytelling in the verse to a sun-bright singalong chorus; add group chants and ad-libs on last hook, sprinkle sea-breeze reverb on the lead., reggae
