Si on chantait plus fort [English translation]

If we sang louder

And even stronger

If our voices, our chords

Changed the decor

On the borders, nice tunes

Our religions, and unisons

Flags at half-staff, pianissimo

To the battlefields, the ballroom songs

If we sang louder

And even stronger

If our voices, our chords

Changed our decors

Sweet violences, in harmony with dances

To our guitars, the prerogative

If we were still singing

Instead of drums

The songs of the troubadours

Stronger than speeches

If we sang louder

Oh even stronger

That our voices, our chords

Explode the decor

Prison bars, to violin

To the camisoles, to treble clef

Explode the decor

If our voices were enough

If the songs could...

If the songs could...
