Together by Françoise LeGuen

Translated for the purpose of sharing the text
Ensemble (French title) - Together

At the heart of nations
One anthem
One soul
Resonates

Float the dark stories
Mixed with clear tenderness
Float proud memories
Mixed with soft promises

At the heart of the ancient tribes
One man
One woman
Gathered in the two
Multiplied Multiplied
Listen ... Listen
Behind the sheet that I hold
Lies the fate of all human beings
You look at me
I look at you
Straight in the eyes
In my eyes
Finally you find yourself
There is no difference
You and I we are the same
A unique goal
Walk in the footsteps
of the elders Wise passages
Walk in the footsteps
Towards favourable moons

Building fire
Light the flames

One heart vibrates
From the depths of obscure cities|
From the top of centuries old trees

One voice
Disrupted by absent glass fragments
By fragments of voices without words

One smile
Imagined in the face of your child
Your child, my child
Our world

Keeper of the earth
Guardian of terrors
The light is shining
Shining is the light
Your heart beats
As my heart beats
United are my words to your silences

Sewer of ardours
You lounge the banks of rivers to come

Living is not difficult
The length of a moment
You blinked your eyes
Dazzled by a sun that never fails to strike

Living is not difficult
At the dawn of our enthusiasm
Standing
On the eve of a day
Together
Which seems to fail
From my mouth to your ear
From mine to yours

We have to cross other waters
To awaken our visions
To wake up our echoes

We had to kill a land so that the word love could live

And if and if
The centuries survived us
How many great eagles will remember
That that the cry of you and me together
This one
The same
Of America in Tibet
This cry gives life

Do not shut our voices anymore
We cannot keep quiet if we want to live

Pour ici, où je fais partie.
