Hommage à Violette Nozières [English translation]

If I were a madman and hence interned – I know it –

I would take advantage of a moment of clarity:

Let my delirium

– My sole martyrdom –

Kill a doctor for good, yes a doctor!

I think I would draw an advantage:

[I would be] – as the manic patients –

Inside a cell, [finally] left alone

Everything is quiet.
