John (original)John (translation)
Mon père venait du nord My father was from the north
Ma mère vient du sud My mother is from the south
Je suis né dans un pays I was born in a country
Grand comme un confetti Big as confetti
Les dunes, un soleil rare The dunes, a rare sun
C’est Marijk, on nous sépare It's Marijk, we're being separated
On ne voulait pas que l’on s’aime We didn't want to love each other
Le chagrin d’un belge The Sorrow of a Belgian
De la Venise du nord From Northern Venice
Aux corons du sud To the southern settlements
J’ai aimé bien des gens I liked many people
Leurs différences leurs accents Their differences their accents
Mais Marijk dans ce pays But Marijk in this country
En Flandre, en Wallonie In Flanders, in Wallonia
Certains, n’aiment pas que l’on s’aime Some don't like that we love each other
Le chagrin d’un belge The Sorrow of a Belgian
Quelques juges à Bruxelles Some judges in Brussels
L'épée pointée vers le ciel Sword pointing to the sky
Se prennent pour Saint Michel Take themselves for Saint Michael
Ont-ils baissé les yeux? Did they look down?
Savent-ils qu’au pied de l’archange Do they know that at the foot of the archangel
Le monde change The world changes
La marée avance The tide is coming
Des fois j’pense à mon vieux Sometimes I think of my old man
Qu’il soit plus là c’est mieux That he is no longer there is better
Il aurait trouvé la bière He would have found the beer
Trop sombre, trop amère Too dark, too bitter
Comme ces uniformes noirs Like those black uniforms
Qui hantaient sa mémoire that haunted his memory
Ceux qui, n’voulaient pas qu’on se tiennent Those who didn't want us to hold each other
Mais un dimanche… But on a Sunday...
Le chagrin des belges est si fort Belgian grief is so strong
Qu’alors, du sud au nord That then, from south to north
Tout un peuple se rassemble A whole people gather
Pour pleurer, renaître, ensemble To cry, to be reborn, together
N’y a-t-il que la douleur Is there only pain
Qui puisse unir nos coeurs Who can unite our hearts
Fallait-il que l’on s’aimeDid we have to love each other
