Ils sont partis dans un soleil d'hiver
They left in a winter sun
Ils sont partis courir la mer
They left to run the sea
Pour effacer la peur, pour écraser la peur
To erase the fear, to crush the fear
Que la vie a clouée au fond du cœur
That life has nailed to the bottom of the heart
Ils sont partis en croyant aux moissons
They left believing in the harvest
Du vieux pays de leurs chansons
From the old country of their songs
Le cœur chantant d'espoir
The heart singing with hope
Le cœur hurlant d'espoir
The heart screaming with hope
Ils ont repris le chemin de leur mémoire
They took the path back to their memory
Ils ont pleuré les larmes de la mer
They cried the tears of the sea
Ils ont versé tant de prières
They poured out so many prayers
Délivrez-nous, nos frères!
Deliver us, our brothers!
Délivrez-nous, nos frères!
Deliver us, our brothers!
Que leurs frères les ont tirés vers la lumière
That their brothers pulled them towards the light
Ils sont là-bas dans un pays nouveau
They are there in a new country
Qui flotte au mât de leur bateau
Who floats on the mast of their boat
Le cœur brisé d'amour
Heartbroken with love
Le cœur perdu d'amour
The lost heart of love
Ils ont retrouvé la terre de l'amour
They found the land of love
