InteresaMr. President
I'm writing you a letter
that perhaps you will read
If you have the time.
I've just received
my call-up papers
to leave for the front
Before Wednesday night.
Mr. President
I do not want to go
I am not on this earth
to kill wretched people.
It's not to make you mad
I must tell you
my decision is made
I am going to desert.
Since I was born
I have seen my father die
I have seen my brothers leave
and my children cry.
My mother has suffered so,
that she is in her grave
and she laughs at the bombs
and she laughs at the worms.
When I was a prisoner
they stole my wife
they stole my soul
and all my dear past.
Early tomorrow morning
I will shut my door
on these dead years
I will take to the road.
I will beg my way along
on the roads of France
from Brittany to Provence
and I will cry out to the people:
Refuse to obey
refuse to do it
don't go to war
refuse to go.
If blood must be given
go give your own
you are a good apostle
Mr. President.
If you go after me
warn your police
that I'll be unarmed
and that they can shoot.

我的总统先生
我给您一封信
您可能会读到
如果您有时间
我刚突然收到
我的军人证件
叫我动身参军
在周三晚上前
我的总统先生
我不想这样做
我不想在这世间
杀害那些穷苦人
这不是要让您生气
我必须把它告诉您
我已拿定主意
去当一个逃兵
自我出生以来
我看到父亲的逝世
我看到兄弟的离去
和我的孩子的哭泣
我的母亲如此受苦
她已长眠于坟墓中
她不在乎那些炸弹
她不在乎那些懦夫
当我困于监牢之时
他们夺走我的妻子
他们夺走我的灵魂
夺走我心爱的过去
明日晨曦又散光芒
冲着已逝过去时光
我要关上我的门房
走到外面的路上
在法兰西的大道上
一生不停奔波流浪
从布列塔尼到普罗旺斯
高声向着人们诉说：
不要服从
不要执行
远离战争
不要参军
如果必须流血下淌
那就把你自己的奉上
正好能和使徒一样
我的总统先生
如果你追捕我
通知您的宪兵
我没携带武器
他们可以开枪
