Found on YouTube a beautiful version of Ecoutez le Guitariste - a song I learned in French class in high school and never forgot - sung acapella by two young women with angelic voices.
Even if the last day of war on Earth came, you viper-tongues, you wouldn't put down your weapons. Your heart is sad to see us happy. Listen to the guitarist and close your eyes. So let everyone else make their harvest in the sun, you viper-tongues, all you work at is sleeping. If you want a war, wage it in your hearts; leave us to our happiness. Don't be sad to see us happy; listen to the guitarist and close your eyes.
