À la volonté du peuple
Michel Sardou
By the Will of the People
By the will of the people
And to the health of progress,
Fill your heart with a rebellious wine
And to tomorrow, faithful friend.
We want to shed light
Despite the mask of the night
To illuminate our land
And change our lives.
We must win in the war
To plow our furrow,
Clear away the misery
For the blond ears of peace
That will dance with joy
In the strong wind of freedom.
By the will of the people
And to the health of progress,
Fill your heart with a rebellious wine
And to tomorrow, faithful friend.
We want to shed light
Despite the mask of the night
To illuminate our land
And change our lives.
By the will of the people,
I give my will.
If I have to die for it,
I want to be the first,
The first name engraved
On the marble of the monument of hope.
By the will of the people
And to the health of progress,
Fill your heart with a rebellious wine
And to tomorrow, faithful friend.
We want to shed light
Despite the mask of the night
To illuminate our land
And change our lives.
