La joie partout [English translation]

Joy everywhere around me

Preaching alone in the desert

Where I see disarray

Others see a human interest story

The worst of all is being misunderstood

Being seen as a pain in the ass or an idiot

Or seeing, in the regard of others,

Something like a hint of derision

But let's not lower our heads

We will never be satisfied

By a restricted life

Incomplete

By the solitary destiny of a prisoner

How to remain unmoved

In the face of servility

Because he who wants to be a free man

Must make up his mind at some point

When I see this fraud

This world of consumption

Reducing the human being and the human condition to a pushcart

But let's not lower our heads

We will never be satisfied

By a restricted life

Incomplete

By the solitary destiny of a prisoner

Am I a simple consumer

Rather than a humble citizen?

Am I a seller

Before even being a believer?

My life is full of passion

And I leave to my detractors

Their complexes and their frustrations

Me, I'll take authentic happiness.

But let's not lower our heads

We will never be satisfied

By a restricted life

Incomplete

By the solitary destiny of a prisoner

And against this superficial world

I bring profundity

Against pleasant and frivolous hypocrisy (hypocrisy in lace)

I bring the weight of righteousness
