Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song Né en 17 à Leidenstadt , by - Anggun. Né en 17 à Leidenstadt(original) |
| Et si j'étais né en 17 à Leidenstadt |
| Sur les ruines d’un champ de bataille |
| Aurais-je été meilleur ou pire que ces gens |
| Si j’avais été allemand? |
| Bercé d’humiliation, de haine et d’ignorance |
| Nourri de rêves de revanche |
| Aurais-je été de ces improbables consciences |
| Larmes au milieu d’un torrent |
| Si j’avais grandi dans les docklands de Belfast |
| Soldat d’une foi, d’une caste |
| Aurais-je eu la force envers et contre les miens |
| De trahir, tendre une main |
| Si j'étais née blanche et riche à Johannesburg |
| Entre le pouvoir et la peur |
| Aurais-je entendu ces cris portés par le vent |
| Rien ne sera comme avant |
| On saura jamais c’qu’on a vraiment dans nos ventres |
| Caché derrière nos apparences |
| L'âme d’un brave ou d’un complice ou d’un bourreau? |
| Ou le pire ou le plus beau? |
| Serions-nous de ceux qui résistent ou bien les moutons d’un troupeau |
| S’il fallait plus que des mots? |
| (translation) |
| What if I was born in 17 in Leidenstadt |
| On the ruins of a battlefield |
| Would I have been better or worse than these people |
| If I had been German? |
| Cradled with humiliation, hatred and ignorance |
| Fueled by dreams of revenge |
| Would I have been one of those improbable consciences |
| Tears in the middle of a torrent |
| If I had grown up in the Belfast docklands |
| Soldier of one faith, one caste |
| Would I have had strength against and against mine |
| To betray, reach out a hand |
| If I was born white and rich in Johannesburg |
| Between power and fear |
| Would I have heard those cries carried by the wind |
| Nothing will be like before |
| We'll never know what we really have in our bellies |
| Hidden behind our appearances |
| The soul of a brave or an accomplice or an executioner? |
| Or the worst or the most beautiful? |
| Would we be those who resist or sheep in a flock |
| If more than words were needed? |
