Les arbres dans la mer by Didier Rimaud
1
Look! The Virgin has a child,
A man is born of God,
Heaven is among us,
the people are no longer alone!
It would take only a bit of faith
and you would see trees in the sea
Beggars who are kings
The powerful overthrown,
Wealth is shared!
2
Look! Water turns into wine,
Wine becomes blood,
The loaves multiply,
The people are no longer hungry!
It would take only a bit of faith
and you would see trees in the sea
Deserts full of flowers
Harvests in winter
Granaries are overflowing!
3
Look! the cripple can walk
the blind see the light of day
the deaf are delivered
the people are no longer in pain!
It would take only a bit of faith
and you would see the trees in the sea
Executioners without work
Rusty handcuffs
Prisons are useless!
4
Look! The cross is empty and bare,
Your graves are pierced,
and the man stands
the people are no longer afraid!
It would take only a bit of faith
and you would see the trees in the sea
Guns buried
Armies discarded
Mountains dancing!
