L'oppression (original)L'oppression (translation)
Ces mains bonnes tout mme tenir des armes These good hands even hold weapons
Dans ces rues que les hommes ont traces pour ton bien In these streets that men have traced for your good
Ces rivages perdus vers lesquels tu t’acharnes These lost shores towards which you persist
O tu veux aborder et pour t’en empcher les mains de l’oppression Where you want to approach and to keep you from the hands of oppression
Regarde-la gmir sur la gueule des gens Watch her moan on people's faces
Avec les yeux fards d’horaires et de rves With eyes painted with schedules and dreams
Regarde-l se taire aux gorges du printemps Watch it fall silent at the gorges of spring
Avec les mains trahies par la faim qui se lve With hands betrayed by rising hunger
Ces yeux qui te regardent et la nuit et le jour Those eyes that watch you night and day
Et que l’on dit braqus sur les chiffres et la haine And said to be obsessed with numbers and hate
Ces choses «dfendues» vers lesquelles tu te tranes Those "forbidden" things you drag yourself to
Et qui seront toi lorsque tu fermeras les yeux de l’oppression And who will you be when you close your eyes of oppression
Regarde-la pointer son sourire indcent Watch her point her indcent smile
Sur la censure apprise et qui va la messe On learned censorship and who goes to mass
Regarde-la jouir dans ce jouet d’enfant Watch her cum in this child's toy
Et qui tue des fantmes en perdant ta jeunesse And who kills ghosts by losing your youth
Ces lois qui t’embarrassent au point de les nier These laws that embarrass you to the point of denying them
Dans les couloirs glacs de la nuit conseillre In the icy corridors of counselor night
Et l’Amour qui se lve l’Universit And the Love that rises in the University
Et qui t’envahira lorsque tu casseras les lois de l’oppression And who will invade you when you break the laws of oppression
Regarde-la flner dans l'њil de tes copains Watch her wander through your buddies eye
Sous le couvert joyeux de soleils fraternels Under the joyous cover of brotherly suns
Regarde-la glisser peu peu dans leurs mains Watch it slip slowly through their hands
Qui formerons des poings ds qu’ils auront atteint l’ge de l’oppression Who will form fists as soon as they reach the age of oppression
Ces yeux qui te regardent et la nuit et le jour Those eyes that watch you night and day
Et que l’on dit braqus sur les chiffres et la haine And said to be obsessed with numbers and hate
Ces choses «dfendues» vers lesquelles tu te tranes Those "forbidden" things you drag yourself to
Et qui seront toi lorsque tu fermeras les yeux de l’oppression.And who will you be when you close your eyes of oppression.
