La bataille du sucre (original)La bataille du sucre (translation)
Le conteur: The storyteller:
…C'était en 2015 et Noël approchait… …It was 2015 and Christmas was coming…
Et comme en 1515, les enfants attendaient… And just like in 1515, the children were waiting...
Le problème était là, bien fier devant nos portes… The problem was there, proudly outside our doors...
Nous étions blêmes et las devant le Grand Cloporte… We were pale and weary in front of the Great Woodlouse...
N’y avait plus de sucre, la Terre n’en donnait plus There was no more sugar, the Earth gave no more
L’avait creusé sépulcre et ne répondait plus! Had dug him grave and answered no more!
Le beau: The beautiful:
«A prix d’or, Sœur Saccharine vendait ses prières…» "For gold, Sister Saccharine sold her prayers..."
Le niais: The simpleton:
«Oui mais alors, plus rien ne sert de racler la pierre!» "Yes, but then there's no point in scraping the stone anymore!"
Le conteur: The storyteller:
…C'était en 2015 et Noël approchait… …It was 2015 and Christmas was coming…
Et comme en 1515, les enfants attendaient… And just like in 1515, the children were waiting...
Et les heures qui filaient, aussi promptes que l’oiseau And the hours that flew by, swift as the bird
Et les chiens qui crevaient à renifler de l’eau… And the dogs that died from sniffing water...
N’y avait plus de sel, la Terre n’en donnait plus There was no more salt, the Earth gave no more
Pour faire du sucre on prit du sel… To make sugar they took salt...
2014… ou 13?.. Je ne sais plus! 2014... or 13?... I don't know!
L’enfant: The child:
«Et le béton toujours vainqueur "And the concrete always wins
Semait tristesse sur notre atoll Sowed sadness on our atoll
Faisant valser nos cœurs-moteurs Spinning our engine hearts
En une morne farandole…» In a gloomy farandole..."
Le conteur: The storyteller:
…C'était en 2015 et Noël arriva …It was 2015 and Christmas came
Ce fut un 2015 pour les enfants sans joie… It was a 2015 for joyless kids...
Devant leurs verts sapins aux branchages plastiques… In front of their green fir trees with plastic branches...
Comme des santons-pantins en serviettes périodiques Like puppets in periodical napkins
Leurs visages grisaillèrent, leurs yeux devinrent néons Their faces turned grey, their eyes turned neon
Ils auraient fait la guerre pour sucer un bonbon! They would have gone to war to suck on a candy!
…Les enfants s'éteignirent, un à un, en pleurant …The children passed away, one by one, crying
Rendirent dernier soupir, devinrent beaux comme avant! Breathed their last, became beautiful as before!
…Indifférents et délaissant le drame …Indifferent and forsaking the drama
Les parents assoiffés léchèrent les larmes Thirsty parents licked the tears
De leurs enfants frustrés Of their frustrated children
Pourquoi, me direz-vous?! Why, will you tell me?!
Parce qu’elles étaient sucrées…Because they were sweet...
