Les creus vermelles [English translation]

The red crosses

Travel across the horror

Of the corpses, the wounded bodies,

Faces filled with fear

Littered down the road...

Such a great battle! What a fight! So much courage!

So many medals

Have been placed on the winner's chest!

It only took 30,000 dead

In the field of honour,

Who will never see the sun rise again!

The red crosses

Have now dragged away the last corpse...

Now, the ones who must work

Are the flies and dust

To erase all the memories!

The memories of men

Who thought they were the best

And that, in war, they would escape death,

Just like other dreamers

That, left in the field of honour,

Shall never see the sun rise again!

Such a feast

For the crows, who fly about

Over the remains

Of that group of soldiers

Who just dreamed...!
