Comme un arbre [English translation]

Like a tree in town

I was born in concrete

Stranded between two houses

Without shelter, without a home

Like a tree in town

Like a tree in town

I grew far away from the groves

Where my brothers from the forest

Established a family

Like a tree in town

Between the concrete and tar

I struggle to shove

But my branches fly low

So close to the cars that smoke

Between the concrete and tar

Like a tree in town

I have smoke from the factories

For jail, and my roots

Overlaid with grills

Like a tree in town

Like a tree in town

I have songs on my leaves

That will fly away under the watchful eye

Of your menial windows

Like a tree in town

Between the concrete and tar

They tear me up in the streets

To build where I lived

Posthumously honored parking

Between the concrete and tar

Like a tree in town

Friend, After my death make

Barricades from my body

And fire from my twigs

Like a tree in town
