Original text with translation
Johnny Hallyday
Au grand cirque de pierres, sous le soleil de juin
Des hommes, assis par terre, ont bravé le destin
C'était pourtant hier et c’est déjà si loin
Je m’en souviens
Un printemps comme les autres que celui de Pékin
A qui est-ce la faute si on n’en dit plus rien?
C'était pourtant hier, qu’en ferons-nous demain?
Qu’en ferons-nous demain?
A force de subir les coups
Y a des cris que l’on n’entend plus
Des voix qui n’ont plus d’autres issues
Que de maudire sans mot dire
A force de haïr les fous
Y a des hommes qui lèvent leurs chaînes
Mourir peut-être, mais debout
A tien an men
Une génération muselée, mutilée
De sa révolution qu’on n’a pas écoutée
C'était pourtant hier, c’est déjà oublié
Mais ce n’est rien
Si le corps est vaincu, brûle toujours la flamme
Que rien n'éteindra plus à l'écueil de son âme
C’est encore aujourd’hui et ce sera demain
Et ce sera demain
A force de subir les coups
Y a des hommes qui brisent leurs chaînes
Mourir peut-être, mais debout
A tien an men
At the great circus of stones, under the June sun
Men, sitting on the ground, defied fate
Yet it was yesterday and it's already so far
I remember
A spring like no other than Beijing
Whose fault is it if we don't say anything more?
But that was yesterday, what will we do tomorrow?
What will we do tomorrow?
By dint of taking the beatings
There are cries that we no longer hear
Voices that have no other outlets
Than to curse without saying a word
From hating fools
There are men who lift their chains
Die maybe, but stand
A tien an men
A muzzled, mutilated generation
Of his revolution that no one listened to
Yet it was yesterday, it's already forgotten
But it's nothing
If the body is defeated, the flame still burns
That nothing will extinguish anymore at the pitfall of his soul
It's still today and it will be tomorrow
And it will be tomorrow
By dint of taking the beatings
There are men who break their chains
Die maybe, but stand
A tien an men
