De passage [English translation]

I saw Jesus, on the cross, on the Golgotha mountain

I said "Are you angry at man for what they did to you?"

He said "Speak of love and not of hate, for all of the human race"

I have so little time, I'm only passing through

Passing through, passing through

Sad, happy voyage

In this world of rage

Just tell yourself, I'm only passing through

I saw Adam leave the garden, an apple in his hand

I said "And now, what're you going to do?"

"I will work the land and I will pray

I'm an orphan, I'm only passing through"

Passing through, passing through

Sad, happy voyage

In this world of rage

Just tell yourself, I'm only passing through

I followed Washington to Valley Forge, shivering from the cold

I said "Why are these men suffering so much here?"

"For a cause, they can suffer, they are even ready to die,

Even if they know that they are only passing through"*

Passing through, passing through

Sad, happy voyage

In this raging world

Just tell yourself, I'm only passing through

Beside Roosevelt again, the night before his death

He says "Our world must be united"

"For whether we are Russian, white or black, we are all of the same blood"

All together, we are only passing through**

Passing through, passing through

Sad, happy voyage

In this world of rage

Just tell yourself, I'm only passing through

I heard Giscard d'Estaing speak of our destiny

"I'm the capitain, be quiet.

It's necessary to guarantee employment for you and then me"

But he like us, he's only passing through

Passing through***
