Amen [English translation]

I put my soul on my shoulders

Because it’s too tired to walk

I’ve seen too many sharks coming to the surface

Too many prostituted dreams

I put my heart in my hand

Because it lost too much blood

Looking for the evidence, in vain

Of what you called ‘love’

I put my soul in peace

Because it’s been fighting for too long

And after all this time

It turned into cement

I kicked my heart

Because it forgot to beat

Of making love

But now it’s enough, now I say

Amen, on earth as it is in heaven1

Amen, even if I don’t believe in it

Amen, we’re the whole world

Amen

I put mud in my eyes

Not to see more defeated on my road

By pain or by anger

By an injustice of fate

And I’ve listened to my sorrow

Because life has beat me

Too many times, in my spine

I put my best dress

For the luck I have of being alive

Even if I don’t believe the world

Will thank me for that

And I say ‘I’m sorry’ to love

If I haven’t recognized it

I say ‘I’m sorry’ to the Lord

on earth as it is in heaven1

Amen, even if I don’t believe in it

Amen, we’re the whole world

Amen

Amen

We’re all sons of the same earth

Amen

And we’re fighting

Amen, amen

We’re sons of the same earth

On earth as it is in heaven1
