Lyrics
Paroles et musique originales: Wolff Ekkehardt Stein / Wolgang Gass
Adaptation française: Marc Strawzynski
Il y a longtemps
Quand j'étais un enfant
Ma mère me racontait l’histoire d’un homme
Venu d’ailleurs, de plus loin
Il disait que la vie, que le monde étaient en danger
Il faut s’en aller disait-il
On est arrivé dans les jardins du ciel
J’ai marché pendant mille années
On est arrivé sous un nouveau soleil
Entend chanter l'éternité
Au bout de ses doigts, il fait son chemin
L’amour que tu as cherché
Si tu as suivi le Nord, c'était ton destin
C'était ton chemin de liberté
Liberté
Les hommes n’ont pas compris
Et ils l’ont chassé loin du village
Pourtant ce jour-lí, le soleil a brillé tellement fort
Que les blés et les forêts ont brulé
Et les enfants ont entendu un chant venu de la terre
Qui leur disait:
On est arrivé dans les jardins du ciel
J’ai marché pendant mille années
On est arrivé sous un nouveau soleil
Entend chanter l'éternité
Au bout de ses doigts, il fait son chemin
L’amour que tu as cherché
Si tu as suivi le Nord, c'était ton destin
C'était ton chemin de liberté
Liberté

A long time ago
When I was a child
My mother used to tell me the story of a man
From elsewhere, from further afield
He said that life, that the world were in danger
"We must go," he said.
We arrived in the gardens of heaven
I walked for a thousand years
We arrived under a new Sun
Hear the song of Eternity
At his fingertips, he makes his way
The love you sought
If you followed the North, it was your destiny
It was your way to freedom
Freedom
Men did not understand
And they chased him away from the village
Yet on that day, the sun shone so brightly
That wheat and forests burned
And the children heard a song from the Earth
Who told them:
We arrived in the gardens of heaven
I walked for a thousand years
We arrived under a new Sun
Hear the song of Eternity
At his fingertips, he makes his way
The love you sought
If you followed the North, it was your destiny
It was your way to freedom
Freedom
