Lyrics
Pauvre pauvre pauvre Indien
Plante un à un Plante plante un à un Le maïs en grains
Dure est la terre
Que l’on arrache à la forêt
Dure est la terre
Où il vivra jusqu'à l'été
Solitaire
La faim au ventre
Il attendra de voir monter
La faim au ventre
Les maigres tiges à récolter
Entre les pierres
Pauvre pauvre pauvre Indien
Plante un à un Plante plante un à un Le maïs en grains
Dans son village
Il a laissé femme et enfants
Dans son village
Qui l’attendent depuis longtemps
Sans colère
La terre est rouge
Rouges ses mains rouge son c ur La terre est rouge
Frère sa peau a la couleur
Qui nous est chère
Pauvre pauvre pauvre Indien
Plante un à un Plante plante un à un Le maïs en grains
Lyrics translation
Poor poor poor Indian
Plant one by one plant plant one by one grain corn
Hard is the Earth
That we pluck from the forest
Hard is the Earth
Where he will live until the summer
Lonely
Hunger in the belly
He'll wait till he sees up.
Hunger in the belly
The meager stems to harvest
Between the stones
Poor poor poor Indian
Plant one by one plant plant one by one grain corn
In his village
He left wife and children
In his village
Who have been waiting for him for a long time
Without anger
The Earth is red
Red his hands red his heart the Earth is red
Brother her skin has color
Who is dear to us
Poor poor poor Indian
Plant one by one plant plant one by one grain corn
