Translation of the article in French by Jacques Rouchaud
To the tune of La Marseillaise
Verse 1
Greetings, citizens, partisans,
Do you feel the misery within you?
High-school pupils, students, teachers,
Farmers, shopkeepers, retirees (repeat)
Do you feel the anger growing,
Rising in your veins, Friends?
Let us all go towards the sweet life.
Towards a better and radiant future!
Chorus
Come all, citizens,
Come, let us sing together
Liberty,
Equality,
Long live Truth!
Verse 2
All the elected take themselves for princes,
They have taken everything from us, citizens:
Our cities, oceans and countryside.
Let us take our destiny in hand (repeat)
Let us all take it, Friends, partisans.
Yes, let us sing it at the top of our lungs,
Let us sing it, this common destiny.
Let us sing it, let us sing it at the top of our lungs!
Chorus
Verse 3
Adolescents, women and men,
Lot will choose us, all of us,
Citizens of all countries,
Of every country, Friends, arise! (repeat)
The people will become the guide,
The people will be the guarantor,
The guide and the guarantor of all,
Citizens of all the continents!
Chorus
Verse 4
Without party, without leader, without princes,
Neither master nor liar, Friends.
No courtier, no promise,
But only the Truth! (repeat)
All our territories will rise.
Arise, citizen hearts and voices,
Together with a united heart,
Against all these selfish tyrants!
Chorus
Last verse
Let us finish with them once and for all,
Let us dislodge all these narcissists,
These tyrants, all these dictators,
Let us finish with them (repeat)
Friends, this is the end of their lies.
Finished, their ideology,
With smile and Truth,
Let us finish with them and go forward!
Chorus
