Le Retour Du Soleil
Zaz
The Return of the Sun
When we talk about heroes, what about those men
Who live in the shadows, and who are no one?
They keep their defiance, against the established order
Disobedience as a final challenge
When we talk about heroes, what about those women
Who bear the weight of a brutal state?
They hold back their sobs in the palms of their bare hands
And the unspoken pride of not having stayed silent
Oh, oh!
They wait in the shadows for the return of the sun
And for the filth to pass, and finally awaken
This sleeping sun that was hidden from them
The cherished freedom that was stolen from them
They wait in the shadows for the return of the sun
They wait in the shadows for the return of the sun
Standing in front of tanks, defying the soldiers
They are the hope that won't be crushed
Your head that rises in the middle of the herd
And fights and dies for a better world
Oh, oh! They wait in the shadows for the return of the sun
And for the filth to pass, and finally awaken
This sleeping sun that was hidden from them
The cherished freedom that was stolen from them
They wait in the shadows for the return of the sun
They wait in the shadows for the return of the sun
All together at the heart of the sun
Let’s join in the march of the sun
All together at the heart of the sun
Let’s join in the march of the sun
Let’s go! Let’s go!
That was stolen from us
That was hidden from us
That was hidden from us
Let’s go! Let’s go!
Now! Now!
