It means something that's already been seen.
Literally, "already seen"
In English it refers to an event or feeling that you believe you've experienced before.

The term déjà vu (French: "already seen", also called paramnesia) describes the experience of feeling that one has witnessed or experienced a new situation previously. The term was created by a French psychic researcher, Émile Boirac (1851–1917) in his book L'Avenir des sciences psychiques (The Future of Psychic Sciences), which expanded upon an essay he wrote while an undergraduate French concentrator at the University of Chicago. The experience of déjà vu is usually accompanied by a compelling sense of familiarity, and also a sense of "eerieness," "strangeness," or "weirdness." The "previous" experience is most frequently attributed to a dream, although in some cases there is a firm sense that the experience "genuinely happened" in the past.

Yep, already seen. Okay so your listening to a song on the radio and your doing homework and all of sudden your cell rings and it's your bff telling you your fav band is coming to town (or whatever)...and your like "Holy crap! Deja vu!" and your like "It feels like everything that just happened...happened EXACTLY like this before!" Yet, you know it didn't. Everything in that moment feels so familiar that it freaks you out.
That's "Deja Vu"

It's the sense that you are experiencing an event that has happened before. Like Yogi Bera said, "It's like deja vu all over again."
