Quand les canons résonnent
Comme pour annoncer le mauvais temps
Les femmes frissonnent
Et sous leurs jupons cachent les enfants
Elles prient la madone
Blessent leurs genoux en suppliant
Mais qu'est-ce qu'elle leur donne
En échange de leur dévouement
[Refrain] :
Revolution
Crache la douleur des mots
Si les cris viennent de la peau
Revolution
Sous les éclairs des couteaux
Glissent les lames le long du dos
Revolution
Mère du dernier sursaut
Met du sang dans les sanglots
Comme on porte une couronne
Elles ont la peur sur leurs visages ruisselants
Espérant la maldonne
Elles frappent leurs poitrines en défilant
Pieusement questionnent
Est-ce que disparus veut dire vivants
Faut-il qu'elles pardonnent
Pour croire que leurs morts ne sont qu'absents
[Refrain]
Et quand les canons résonnent
Les femmes aux regards bouleversants
Défilent inlassablement
Chaque jeudi que Dieu donne
Soutenues par la Madone
Loin des yeux de l'Occident
Près des canons qui résonnent
Les femmes aux regards bouleversants
Défilent inlassablement...
