If we sing and dance in French, it’s for the next generation,
To keep our culture alive, this is our mission,
And for their future, we will keep creating
We won’t forget our roots, even when time’s changing.
Through our songs and our moves,
We’ll express what it means to be unique,
And how to be proud of our French heritage,
It’s how we show our strength and our resilience.
And this is why throughout all the days and nights
We can still remain connected to our past,
For our language and our movements are alive,
In every beat and in every phrase.
So if you feel like joining, join us now in our dance,
Let’s share our stories and create history,
Let’s chantez français and dansez français,
And remember our culture faithfully.
