Translation
Marianne
You don't have to be scared of the Gods
Nor death
Nor men
You've already seen it with your eyes
It fell on everyone you love(d)
You don't believe the pouvoirs
Who oppose and assassinate
Your name they sing with hope
You, you carry the peace in your stomach
Freedom costs a lot
But your children carry the fire
Your light shines beyond the sea
Corscuant in your name, Marianne
Marianne
Marianne where are you
Marianne
You expectorate on politics
Who melt our world on the scare
Before we start to hate and become fanatical
We don't kill your brothers and sisters
Oh no you would never believe
Your heart, your values, your roots
Marianne
Your ancestors gave you life
For your voice to guide your future
The freedom costs very little
She has the taste of blood and tears
Everyone, we can die with honor
But nobody
Nobody is called Marianne
For students for the future
For this mandatory paradise
For the imprisoned elites
For Afghan children
For all this for non-repetitive
For all these empty slogans
For the rubble of the fake houses
To feel relaxed
For the girl who wished it was a boy
Marianne (x16)

Please help to translate "Marianne"
Comments
Marianne is the English term, derived from the French word, for the national personification of the French Republic since the French Revelation, meaning liberty, equality and reasoning, as well as protrayal from the Goddess of Liberty. (via. Wikipedia + my own knowledge)
The "pouvoirs" is a French political magazine originally published in the 1970s.
The name of the song, "Marianne", is similar to that of Pravi's friend Marion Sarraut, who was a French director for film and TV. Sarraut passed away in 2021, just months before Pravi won the SACEM award, in which Sarraut had co-developed. Sarraut also directed and starred alongside Pravi in the 2017 film "La Sainte Famille".
