Mes racines [English translation]

You, the land

Of my father and my mother

A bitter taste

Takes me by surprise when I think of the green

Of your fig trees

And of your seashore

Me, I sing,

Proud of my roots

My country, my land, my origins,

I will wear them

Just like an emblem

It's a prayer

So as not to see those mothers crying anymore

Like a brother,

Love your fellow man and silence

That voice

That leads you to war

Me, I sing,

Proud of my roots

My country, my land, my origins,

I will wear them

Just like an emblem

I know neither my destiny

Nor the mysteries of my past

I only know where I come from,

Some small stones to find my way

I know neither my destiny

Nor the mysteries of my past

I only know where I come from,

And that knowledge will carry me a long way

Me, I sing,

Proud of my roots

My country, my land, my origins,

I will wear them

Just like an emblem
