Les uns et les autres
Nicole Croisille
The Ones and the Others
The ones and the others
The ones or the others
If each one is the other for one
Rarely is he one for the other
Despite all the speeches
Calls for help
From others
From others.
On earth they wallow
The ones without the others
If all men are equal
Some are more equal than others
Wrote George Orwell
It's true for him or her
Or the other, or the other
By chance, one day
We were leaving a station
We saw each other
In the mirror of a boulevard cafe
Both of us
In the crowd among the others
The ones and the others
The ones or the others
If each one is the other for one
Rarely is he one for the other
Despite all the speeches
Calls for help
From others
From others
This morning
Where I wait with others for the train
To play
I said to myself
I will guess
Among those waiting
Who will be the other
The ones and the others
The ones and the others
The ones and the others
The ones or the others
The ones and the others
The ones or the others
The ones or the others
