| All the little fates
|
| who make the world
|
| And who have done it since the "Big Bang",
|
| Stowaways
|
| From the Shadow River
|
| Which unites the Loire to the Yang Tse Kiang
|
| All these little destinies
|
| almost anonymous,
|
| John, Natacha, Rachid or Leon
|
| Are they in the phone book
|
| black from the abyss
|
| Less than Napoleon?
|
| They are love always renewed,
|
| Life, sap, seed and water,
|
| They are the stones of a senseless bridge,
|
| The blacks, the whites, the good ones, the bastards!
|
| They have the same heart, the same blood,
|
| From the Pharisees to the Philistines,
|
| Long live the monkey from whom I descend
|
| And that earns me my little destiny...
|
| All the little destinies,
|
| Those who swarm
|
| In all lands of all times,
|
| Are my parents, my wife and my family,
|
| Very trivial and very important.
|
| All these little destinies,
|
| these existences,
|
| Billions of stars from the same sky,
|
| Are in the grand-chain of circumstances
|
| Essential links.
|
| They are love always renewed,
|
| Life, sap, seed and water,
|
| They are the stones of a senseless bridge,
|
| The blacks, the whites, the good ones, the bastards!
|
| They have the same heart, the same blood,
|
| From the Pharisees to the Philistines,
|
| Long live the monkey from whom I descend
|
| And that earns me my little destiny... |
