Me garje

Me garje!

I WOULD LIKE

 

I would like to be a man

A courageous and daring man

To climb Mount Bre6

In my hand the Banner of my Country

---The White and Black Banner---

In my other hand a Triskell7

Held high in the air.

And shout at the top of my voice

To the men around:

Oho! Men of the Army!

Now the time has come

To free our Country

And to become Master in the City…

 

6/79

 

6 In interior Brittany.

7 A triple spiral symbol long associated with the Celts.
