DESCRIPTION:
Ils ont rendu l'Alsace et la Lorraine, Paul Gesky, 1919.

Une des nombreuses chansons patriotiques enregistrées après la Victoire de 1918.

Paroles en anglais:
When the beloved quivers with ease
In the noise of the chains of our horses
Intend vibrate the Marseillaise
At the edge of the Rhine rolling its waters

Our regiments, in the streets of Saverne
Sing cheerfully our national airs
And their gaiety, in the old inns
A made go pale the sinister executioners

{Tune:}
They finally returned Alsace and Lorraine
They who mocked at France and who said " Never! "
They had not known, over there, that give rise to the hatred
But the heart of Alsace had remained French
Yes, the heart of Alsace had remained French!

Metz and Strasbourg, we dress you
Thus get tipsy on three colors
In the sharp roofs, covered with slate
Float cheerfully, victorious flags

Old Alsatians, soldiers and blondes girls
Pass, light, under vaults of flowers
And there, these people see in the eyes which shine
The sweet enjoyment which makes tears

{ In the Tune}
