Paroles de la chanson Villanelle for Our Time par Léonard Cohen

From bitter searching of the heart
Quickened with passion and with pain
We rise to play a greater part

This is the faith from which we start:
Men shall know commonwealth again
From bitter searching of the heart

We loved the easy and the smart
But now, with keener hand and brain
We rise to play a greater part

The lesser loyalties depart
And neither race nor creed remain
From bitter searching of the heart

Not steering by the venal chart
That tricked the mass for private gain
We rise to play a greater part

Reshaping narrow law and art
Whose symbols are the millions slain
From bitter searching of the heart
We rise to play a greater part

This is the faith from which we start:
Men shall know commonwealth again
From bitter searching of the heart
We rise to play a greater part

The lesser loyalties depart
And neither race nor creed remain
From bitter searching of the heart
We rise to play a greater part

Reshaping narrow law and art
Whose symbols are the millions slain
From bitter searching of the heart
We rise to play a greater part

This is the faith from which we start:
Men shall know commonwealth again
From bitter searching of the heart
We rise to play a greater part

This is the faith from which we start:
Men shall know commonwealth again
From bitter searching of the heart
We rise to play a greater part

Not steering by the venal chart
That tricked the mass for private gain

We rise, we rise to play a greater part

Reshaping narrow law and art
Whose symbols are the millions slain
From bitter searching of the heart
We rise to play a greater part
