Many years ago in high-school, my two classmates and I sang this song for a French performance program. We unfortunately didn’t have a karaoke version of the song and our initial idea of singing along with the CD was scrapped at the last minute. We sang it a cappella. Just us three, marching in place, each one of us singing the verses individually, then the chorus together in unison, along with sword, gun and flag in hand. We were nervous and didn’t know how the judges would rate our performance. But in the end, they bestowed us golden honors, the highest grade that each performance group could obtain. Truly unforgettable. Viva la France!
For the will of the people, and for the sake of progress Fill your heart with rebel wine and see you tomorrow, faithful friend We want to create light despite the mask of the night To illuminate our land and change life We need to win, through war The furrow that we shall plough To get rid of the misery, for the wheat ears of peace that will dance with joy in freedom’s great wind [chorus] To the will of the people, I give up my will If one needs to die for it, I shall be the first one The first name engraved in the marble of the monument of hope [chorus x2] I’m sorry if it’s not very clear, it was hard translating these lyrics as they’re very metaphoric

It seems to me that English pronunciation is much more, and by far, disconnected from the written words than French is. That is why her comment surprises me a lot. For me in any case it is THE great difficulty for learning English I don't think I'm the only Frenchman who finds it difficult.

@Alexander Fomin ça arrive souvent en français. ^^ It often happend in french. ^^ Mais que voulez vous ! Notre langue est un art taillée par nos siecles d'histoires ! Vous m'entendez !? Un Joyaux Linguistic ! xD
I took French years ago, but when I tried to sing along with this it turned out that my pronunciation was a bit rusty. But I think I can polish it back up. Maybe even sing a few more French songs. Singing in French is fun. It's probably still fun even if you *are* French and speak the language all the time. Of course, then it's just called singing.
I think it might be just as fun as in any native language. Singing is so much more fun, joyfull, sad, hoping when you understand it. As if singing was just living. (I too explain myself better in my native language, so my bad If I was not quite understandable)
@@loicb.8255 If I make you out correctly you were saying that in song I would probably express myself best in English because that's the language I was raised speaking.
@@shockwave4742 not exactly. I meant that in my opinion the feelings flows best in a song of your language because you can understand It well and even relate to it.
@@loicb.8255 That sounds like something a friend of my sister's said once about talking to a baby. Her native language was German, and she said that she thought she could speak to a baby with more feeling if she was speaking German. There really is something to that, but for me, something about singing in a foreign language, and especially one I find particularly beautiful, feels sort of magical.
I never cared much about French history until I took a Honors Modern European and watched Les Miserabe and now I wanna know so much more. Vive Le France

Version 1981: Enjolras: A la volonte de peuple, Et a la sante du progres, Remplis ton coeur d'un vin rebelle, Et a demain, l'ami fidele! Si ton coeur bat aussi fort Que le tambour dans le lointain, C'est que l'espoir existe encore Pour le genre humain.

Volonté du peuple = Volonté du Seigneur Le Très Haut Sacré Eternel, believe me firmly, Dear Friends, compatriotes...... A Bas la mégalomanie, a bas la tyrannie

Hands down the best version of this song ever made.
C'est vraiment magnifique.

It helps that Sardou actually sounds like he cares about what he's singing about.

For the will of the people, and for the sake of progress
Fill your heart with rebel wine and see you tomorrow, faithful friend
We want to create light despite the mask of the night
To illuminate our land and change life
We need to win, through war
The furrow that we shall plough
To get rid of the misery, for the wheat ears of peace that will dance with joy in freedom’s great wind
[chorus]
To the will of the people, I give up my will
If one needs to die for it, I shall be the first one
The first name engraved in the marble of the monument of hope
[chorus x2]
I’m sorry if it’s not very clear, it was hard translating these lyrics as they’re very metaphoric

I am fluent in English and Irish and now I want to learn French. It is such a beautiful language
The singer in this video is pretty famous in France. He composed a very popular song about Ireland. Type "Connemara Michel Sardou".
