lyrics

Dans le bruit sans lumière
Creuser même à genoux
Se coucher dans la terre
La vermine et la boue
La terreur et la haine
Quand les hommes sont fous

C’était hier
C’était hier à peine
C’était hier
C’est toujours
Toujours partout

Quand revient la lumière
L’espérance a le goût
Des parfums de la terre
Des mélanges si doux
Et des langues qui se cherchent
Dans un chant plus que fou

C’était hier
C’était hier à peine
C’était hier
C’est toujours
Toujours partout

Comme un hymne à la paix
A construire entre nous
Un pari imparfait
Dont les sons vont partout
…

Se rejoignent pour une fois
Dans un pur chant de foi

C’était hier à peine
Aujourd’hui soyons fous

In the noise without light
Dig even on your knees
Lie down in the earth
Vermine and mud
Terror and hatred
When men are mad

It was yesterday, only yesterday
It is still, every day and everywhere

When the light returns
Hope has the taste
Of the fragrances of the earth
Such sweet blends
Tongues seeking one another
Meeting in a song more than mad

It was yesterday, only yesterday
It is still, every day and everywhere

Like an ode to peace
That we could build together
An imperfect wager
And those sounds everywhere

…
And come together for once
In a pure song of faith

It was yesterday, only yesterday
Today let’s go mad
