Les Cigales [English translation]

Hey nobleman, do you hear

go by your street

a parade of hope

and who sings and who dance

and sail, sail the galley

course on La Bohème

and sail, sail our chimeras

course on their youthful indiscretion ?

There's cicadas in the anthill

and you can't do anything about it

there's cicadas in the anthill

and that is why I hope

Hey nobleman, do you hear

go by your street

a parade of scandal

it's the children of the ball

and it juggles and it spits fire

and it makes boom boom in your hears

to your good heart ladies and gentlemen

to your good heart or not, it's the same

There's cicadas in the anthill

and you can't do anything about it

there's cicadas in the anthill

and that is why I hope

Hey nobleman, do you hear

go by your street

a parade of fortune

it's the birds with no feathers

and who somehow persist

to live as they breath

even if it means to starve

They have so many things to say

There's cicadas in the anthill

and you can't do anything about it

there's cicadas in the anthill

and that is why I hope

Hey nobleman, do you hear

go by your street

a parade from city to city

it's Fil's theater

and who plays in every languages

to better speak about love

while the world asks itself

if tomorrow there will be daylight

There's cicadas in the anthill

and you can't do anything about it

there's cicadas in the anthill

and that is why I hope
