Paix sur la Terre, Et silence à jamais, ô cloches de la guerre! Pour le Droit, pour la Liberté, Sonnez, cloches de la Justice: Voici l'aube réparatice Montant du sol ensanglanté! Noël! Noël! Paix sur la Terre, Et silence à jamais, ô cloches de la guerre. André Fontaine. -V Prouvé 1918 [Christmas for the great peace which is coming. Ring out, bells of Peace; Ring out, bells of Glory; Open your wings, oh Victory: The laurel springs from the cypresses. Noël! Noël! Peace on earth, and silence for ever, oh bells of war! Ring out for ever, bells of love, bells of joy; May the voice of our dead be heard amidst your stirring hymns! Noël! Noël! Peace on earth, and silence for ever, oh bells of war! For Right, for Freedom, ring out, bells of Justice: Here is the restorative dawn arising from the blood-stained soil! Noël! Noël! Peace on earth, and silence for ever, oh bells of war.
