Musique [English translation]

In this uncanny world, let's move away

from the din of power shovels.

What do they build anyway?

Let's silence the depressed

with our own rhythm and happiness.

Music

And let everyone start singing

and let everyone allow himsef to be carried away

everyone hugging each other tightly

everyone embracing each other tightly

(close to one another)

Music

Let the bands start playing

Let our memories start dreaming

And let us allow our thoughts to wander,

let us allow our bodies to relax and float

(close to one another)

Music

We are too weak to kill one another

We are too lonely to hate one another

We feel too bad to make it worse1

We are too insignificant to hurt one another

(one another)

Music

Let us put down our weapons at our feet

Let us send our armies home

and throw our shields to the ground.

Let us snap our fingers and tap our feet

(one, two, three, four)

Music

Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet music

Mmm

Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet music

Mmm...

1. more precisely "to make it even worse for one another", but that's a bit too heavy for my taste
