The Beating Heart (Translation) (Intro) [Verse 1] There are challenges that seem too steep Mountains we have to lift There are paths stretching out ahead That we want so much to climb, oh oh But in the silence of this fight That we sometimes think we fight alone A whisper is born in the distance Gathering us all around you [Chorus] Listen to the heart beating, louder than the night! It’s a drum that lifts the city and unites us tight! Give a little of your time, give a little of your fire! Every gesture is a bridge, taking us higher and higher! (Oh oh oh oh, light the fire!) (Oh oh oh oh, together we can!) [Verse 2] In the fog of the early morning A rumble suddenly rises A parade of roaring thunder Rolling for the days to come Under the helmets, determined smiles Kilometer after kilometer They trace a path of hope So that life remains the winner! [Chorus] Listen to the heart beating, louder than the night! It’s a drum that lifts the city and unites us tight! Give a little of your time, give a little of your fire! Every gesture is a bridge, taking us higher and higher! (Oh oh oh oh, light the fire!) (Oh oh oh oh, together we can!) [Bridge - Quiet Moment] This is not a story of pity It is a story of pride It’s believing that tomorrow, yes Can drive away the hand of fate It’s a big "YES" to life A big "YES" to science Moving forward, step by step Carried by our hope! [Power Chorus - Double length] Listen to the heart beating, louder than the night! It’s a drum that lifts the city and unites us tight! Give a little of your time, give a little of your fire! Every gesture is a bridge, taking us higher and higher! (Oh oh oh oh, light the fire!) (Oh oh oh oh, together we can!) Listen to the heart beating, louder than the night! It’s a drum that lifts the city and unites us tight! Give a little of your time, give a little of your fire! Every gesture is a bridge, taking us higher and higher! (Oh oh oh oh, light the fire!) (Oh oh oh oh, together we can!) [Instrumental Solo] [Verse 3] The villages are lighting up now Hands reach out as they pass by It is an unbroken chain Running from shore to shore Young and old, cities and countryside Carried by the sound of a thousand steeds It is the whole of France Rising up and rushing forth! [Final Chorus] Listen to the heart beating, louder than the night! It’s a drum that lifts the city and unites us tight! Give a little of your time, give a little of your fire! Every gesture is a bridge, taking us higher and higher! (Oh oh oh oh, light the fire!) (Oh oh oh oh, together we can!) Listen to the heart beating, louder than the night! It’s a drum that lifts the city and unites us tight! Give a little of your time, give a little of your fire! Every gesture is a bridge, taking us higher and higher! (Oh oh oh oh, light the fire!) (Oh oh oh oh, together we can!) (Outro) "All together... The beating heart..." -------
