Valet [English translation]

Plants grow carefully under the surface.

They thrive where it is humid, dark and cold.

First when the leaf begins to be seen

one can see that there are weeds over everything.

But if one looks past,

no one hears, no one sees

how does one know then?

Because one hears nothing, nothing is found.

And that, which one doesn't see, is surely not there.

In March you have still time.

You can take it before the buds come out.

But if you let it stay,

until summer is past,

it has grown over your head at the end.

Today racists take one.

Tomorrow perhaps they take two.

France took them by storm.

Who knows when it is you they come after.

Wake up! Collect your courage!

Begin to look around!

Don't be one of them who only stands there,

and says that I knew nothing.

Every day new threats are born against our lives.

Every morning the executioners make themselves ready.

In the darkness when we close our eyes they make themselves ready for war.

How can we fight if we don't see the danger?

Today you have work and a salary.

Tomorrow perhaps you may go.

Millions that starve in the world outside

Stay only a little longer down in the same hole.

Wake up!

Collect your courage!

Begin to look around!

Don't be one of them who only stands there,

And says that I knew nothing.

Most of them go with the flow.

Most of them want to have peace and quiet.

But if Fasciats come sneaking back,

then it is you and I who must resist.

The weeds grow and thrive.

So you don't have to use your knife.

If you let it spread with the wind over the world

you may suffer for your hesitation with your life.

Wake up!

Begin to look around!

Collect your courage!

So you can say to your young ones when they ask you,

That you were one of those who resisted.
