Mercy
Je suis née ce matin, je m’appelle Mercy
Au milieu de la mer, entre deux pays
Mercy
C’était un long chemin et Maman l’a pris
Elle m’avait dans la peau, huit mois et demi
Oh oui, huit mois et demi
On a quitté la maison, c’était la guerre
Sûr qu’elle avait raison, y’avait rien à perdre
Oh non, excepté la vie
Je suis née ce matin, je m’appelle Mercy
On m’a tendu la main et je suis en vie
Je suis tous ces enfants que la mer a pris
Je vivrai cent mille ans, je m’appelle Mercy
S'il est urgent de naître, comprenez aussi
Qu'il est urgent de renaître, quand tout est détruit
Mercy
Et là devant nos yeux y’avait l’ennemie
Une immensité bleue peut-être infinie
Mais oui, on en connaissait le prix
Surgissant d’une vague, un navire ami
A redonné sa chance à notre survie
C’est là, que j’ai poussé mon premier cri
Je suis née ce matin, je m’appelle Mercy
On m’a tendu la main et je suis en vie
Je suis tous ces enfants que la mer a pris
Je vivrai cent mille ans, je m’appelle Mercy
Derrière les sémaphores, serait-ce le bon port?
Que sera demain? Face à face ou main dans la main
Que sera demain?
Je suis née ce matin, je m’appelle Mercy
Merci, merci, merci, merci
Merci, merci, je vais bien merci
Merci, merci, merci, merci
Merci, merci, je vais bien merci
Merci, merci, merci, merci
Merci, merci, je vais bien merci
Merci, merci, merci, merci
Merci, merci, je vais bien merci
Mercy
I was born this morning, my name is Mercy
In the middle of the sea, between two countries
Mercy
It was a long journey and Mom took it
She had me in her skin, eight and a half months
Oh yes, eight and a half months
We left the house, it was war
Sure she was right, there was nothing to lose
Oh no, except life
I was born this morning, my name is Mercy
A hand was extended to me and I am alive
I am all those children that the sea took
I will live a hundred thousand years, my name is Mercy
If it is urgent to be born, understand also
That it is urgent to be reborn, when everything is destroyed
Mercy
And there before our eyes was the enemy
An immense blue, maybe infinite
But yes, we knew the price
Emerging from a wave, a friendly ship
Gave our survival another chance
It was there that I let out my first cry
I was born this morning, my name is Mercy
A hand was extended to me and I am alive
I am all those children that the sea took
I will live a hundred thousand years, my name is Mercy
Behind the semaphores, could it be the right port?
What will tomorrow be? Face to face or hand in hand
What will tomorrow be?
I was born this morning, my name is Mercy
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
Thank you, thank you, I'm fine thank you
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
Thank you, thank you, I'm fine thank you
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
Thank you, thank you, I'm fine thank you
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
Thank you, thank you, I'm fine thank you
