On ira [English translation]

Let's go 'n' listen to Harlem's quarter Manhattan

Let us brew tea in the open-air markets of Amman

Then go 'n' swim in the Sénégal for real; kudos

Let's see 'n' burn to Bombay under fire from Prometheus

Let's go 'n' scrape the sky underneath Kyoto

Let's go 'n' feel Rio beat the heart of Janeiro

Then lift our eyes up to the roof of the Sistine Chapel

Yet to lift our glasses at the Pushkin Café

Ah well, 'n' it's our great good fortune

Some thousands of colours, all being human

Matching and mixing our maths

All at the crossing of paths

Y'all are the stars, the cosmos we are

Y'all are one silicate, we are desert dust

You one thousand paper leaves me, I am the scribe

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

You are all the horizon, and we are the ocean

You all are seasons 'n' us the terrain

You're the shoreline whilst I am the foaming rise

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

One'll tell that dead poets bear no banners, no flags

Another hold as many holidays as heroes brag

Well knowing that infants are the guardians of the soul

And as many are the queens as women we'll know

We'll confirm that confluences make jolly journeys,

Seeing no-one other than who shares as virtuous

Hear us the singing of the music of the orient

Then we'll know to give it the best of all it meant

Ah well, 'n' it's our great good fortune

Some thousands of colours, all being human

Matching and mixing our maths

All at the crossing of paths

Y'all are the stars, the cosmos we are

Y'all are one silicate, we are desert dust

You one thousand paper leaves me, I am the scribe

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

You are all the horizon, and we are the ocean

You all are seasons 'n' us the terrain

You are the shoreline whilst I'm the foaming rise

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Y'all are the stars, the cosmos we are

Y'all are one silicate, we are desert dust

You one thousand paper leaves me, I am the scribe

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

You are all the horizon, and we are the ocean

You all are seasons 'n' us the terrain

You are the shoreline whilst I'm the foaming rise

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
