Le dauphin regardait les hommes
pieux et joyeux dauphin, toi qui a choisie
de vivre nu, de vivre libre dans la mer
et le dauphin regardait les hommes
oh, indians, i am in love, with your lands' loving
L'imploration des cheveaux sauvages
leurs crinières blanches vers le ciel sombre
cheveux de feu, liberté, revolte
cheveux en feu
qu'as tu fais, homme, de ton univers, qu'as tu fais ?
la baleine, douce et maternelle
mere des ocean voit sa chair meurtrie
par le cannon, sa chair si fragile, par le cannon
les cris de la baleine, les cieux en sont honteux
Les meres phoques erraient au printemps
les banquises etaient tachées de sang
a la recherche de leur chair, a la recherche...
mais elle ne retrouvait que leur viscere
Avez vous deja entendu
la plainte des meres, resonner sur les glaces
avez vous dejà vu
la jouissance perverse des chasseurs.
L'homme avait soif de pouvoir
et le tyran riait, et le tyran riait
des dieux, des homme et de lui-même....
Sa folie, sa perte.......
The dolphin was watching the men
pious and happy dolphin, you who chose
to live naked, to live free in the sea
and the dolphin was watching the men
oh, indians, i love you, with your lands' loving
The pledging of wild horses
their white manes towards the dark sky
fiery hair, freedom, revolt
hair on fire
What did you do, man, in your universe, what did you do?
the whale, sweet and maternal
mother of the ocean sees her bruised flesh
by the cannon, his flesh so fragile, by the cannon
the cries of the whale, the heavens are ashamed
The seal mothers wandered in the spring
the ice floes were stained with blood
in search of their flesh, looking for ...
but she only found their viscera
Have you heard
the complaint of the mothers, resound on the ice
have you ever seen
the perverse enjoyment of hunters.
The man was thirsty for power
and the tyrant laughed, and the tyrant laughed
gods, men and himself ...
His madness, his loss .......
