Mes Aïeux - Dégénération

Έναν τραουδούιν-μαργαριτάριν που ανακάλυψα πρόσφατα μιλά για τον εκφυλισμόν των γενεών. Δηλαδή την διαδικασίαν εις την οποίαν οι αξίες της κοινωνίας φτίρουνται με την κάθαν γενιάν φτάνοντας εις το σημείον του κοινωνικού μαρασμού. Τον εκφυλισμόν των γενεών θωρώ τον να λαμβάνει χώραν εδώ τζαι μιαν δεκαετίαν εις την Κύπρον. Ο κόσμος ήτουν άλλως πως πριν 10 γρόνους. Τωρά η κοινωνία μας έν σαφέστατα διαφορετική. Έχομεν αποξενωθεί τζαι τες αξίες των πρωτινών εματσςάσαμεν τες τζαι εχαρατζίσαμεν τες ως που φτάννει η κουτάλα μας.

Το συγκρότημαν Mes Aïeux έν έναν πετυχημένον συγκρότημαν παραδοσιακής μουσικής το όγοιον κατάγεται που την γαλλόφωνην επαρχίαν του Κιεμπέκ στον Καναδάν.

Τέλως πάντων τα πολλά λόγια είναι φτώσςεια. Καλήν ακρόασην!



Μετάφραση:

Your great-great grandfather cleared the earth
Your great-grandfather laboured on the earth
Your grandfather turned a profit from the earth
Then your father sold the earth to become a bureaucrat

Now you, my little man, you don’t know what to do
In your little 3 room apartment - too expensive and cold in the winter
You want something to call your own
And you dream at night of having your own little piece of earth.

Your great great grandmother, she had 14 kids
Your great grandmother had about as many
Then your grandmother had three, that was enough for her
Your mom didn’t want any, you were an accident

Now you, my little lady, change partners all the time
When you screw up you save yourself by aborting
But there are mornings you awake crying
When you dream in the night of a large table surrounded by little ones.

Your great great grandfather lived through incredible suffering
Your great grandfather collected used, dirty pennies
Then your grandfather became a millionaire
Your father inherited and put it into RRSPs

Now you, my little youth, owe your a$$ to the government
No way to get a loan from a financial institution
To alleviate your desire to hold up a bank
You read books about voluntary simplicity

Your great great grandparents knew how to celebrate
Your great grandparent dance the night away
Your grandparents lived through the Rock and Roll era
Your parents, it was discos, that’s where they met

Now you, my friend, what are you doing with your evening?
Turn off your TV, can’t stay locked inside
Happily, some things in life never change
Put on your best, we’re going out tonight dancing!
