Droit devant [English translation]

[Be prepared, little boy

The expedition will be long

And even if you never return alive

you should walk straight ahead ...]

When he was as tall as three apples

and he was only a little fellow

They pushed him out of the cradle

Putting him a bundle on the back

The empty luggage of experience

He will set a foot in his existence

You have not arrived yet

That we have to face his destiny

First, you have to cross the river

Which is the childhood of all hardships

There where even his own family

Risks to have him sunken by a torpedo

We will already know if its hull

And his boat will cross the ages

or if he will row hard

in a rowboat filled with cracks

[Chorus ]

Then, the obligatory passage comes

In this sometimes agitated forest

There where, in addition to seeking his way,

You are often lost inside yourself

When getting out of this alley

He can take the paved roads

Or simply accept a precarious avenue

Off the beaten paths

[Chorus ]

Finally, the hostile mountain comes

And his ascension to a thousand perils

Where victories are triumphant

But where falling is often brutal

Only a few people pull themselves up

And manage to plant their flag

Most of them quit half-way

And resign themselves just before the peak

[Chorus ]

When will the age of the assessment come

The important thing is that you are happy

Because you do what you can in life

It all depends on what we got as tools

We all would like to be in command

But the offer is less than demand

If you are tiny or giant

You have to be strong to survive through time

Good luck!
