Mon fils,
Il faut que tu saches
Cet homme entre les mains du fossoyeur
Cet homme n'était pas un lâche
Il est mort pour sauver son honneur
Mon fils,
Tu ne peux pas comprendre
Si cet homme a dû prendre son fusil
C'était pour mieux se défendre
Et c'est lui qu'on enterre aujourd'hui
Car des hommes venus du nord,
Oui des hommes qui volent et qui pillent,
Ont incendié sa maison
Ont ravagé la moisson
Et ont fait pleurer sa fille
Et ces hommes et ces hommes courent encore
Mon fils,
Tu vois cette femme
Peut être fière de lui dans son malheur
Sa vie se termine en larmes
On enterre la moitié de son cœur
Mon fils,
Tu vois ces couronnes
Te prouvent qu'il n'était pas seul dans la vie
Ecoute la cloche qui sonne
Même le bedeau était son ami
Car des hommes venus du nord
Des hommes de sang et de haine
Par une nuit tranquille
Ont traversé la ville
Et ont détruit son domaine
Et ces hommes et ces hommes courent encore
Mon fils,
Il faut que l'on rentre
Ce n'est pas un spectacle pour un garçon
Mon fils,
Il faut que l'on rentre
Car ta mère nous attend à la maison.
