Rise Up
Rise up, crowd
Don't look at the world crumbling
Without doing anything, thinking only of yourself
Without moving, without arming yourself with conscience
Don't let violence take hold
The rejection of others and ignorance
Let our voices rise together
And our hands united finally lift us up
Finally lift us up, rise up, crowd
Show that in your blood, what flows
Are rivers of time, of battles
Of freedoms fought for to shine
Our faces together, our pupils
Our dreams, our ideas, our idylls
The tears on our cheeks are salt
Let's walk under the same sun
The same night, the same moon
Rise up, son
If here, we are but dust
You and I, we are children of one earth
Honor your mothers, your daughters
Honor your sisters, their lives
They who have paid the price for all
Too high the cost of silence and oblivion
Don't let history erase us
History erase us, oh, rise up, sister
Wherever you are, whatever your color
Your story is immense, and our choices
Together make France, and our voices
Together make the world, its greatness
Unleash the fever and ardor
Make rise the rage and love
The secrets of your soul
In broad daylight, in broad daylight, in broad
Rise and welcome
The tomorrows of peace, the evidence
Love greater than all beliefs
Love greater than all powers
We are only flesh and blood
We are only noise, movement
Let's walk to honor the past
To ignite our hearts gathered
Rise up, crowd
Rise up, crowd
Rise up, crowd
Rise up, rise up
