Non à l'excision [English translation]

They came over, the women,

With a long knife

She was certain that she would not

Make it out alive

And then this morning

That had to come in

To cut off a flower

Hidden under her belly

Say no to excision! Say no to excision!

Don't touch them anymore, they already suffered enough!

A man is lying on her chest,

Her body does not even respond

She was happy to let him in,

But she can't even feel him

He is only there, only there

To plant his seed,

But this field he is plowing

Is quite a sad plains

Say no to excision! Say no to excision!

Don't touch them anymore, they already suffered enough!

Say no to excision! Say no to excision!

Don't touch them anymore, they already suffered enough!

They cut off her skin,

Maybe they will sell it

Like a piece of flesh,

Such a tiny piece

They cut off her skin,

Just a part of her body

They took from her island

The most precious of all treasures

Say no to excision! Say no to excision!

Don't touch them anymore, they already suffered enough!

Say no to excision! Say no to excision!

Don't touch them anymore, they already suffered enough!
