Ça Ira
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Suivant la maxime de l'Evangile,
Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira
Du législateur tout s'accomplira.
Celui qui s'élève on l'abaissera;
Celui qui s'abaisse on l'élévera.
Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira!
Le vrai catéchisme nous instruira
Et le faux fanatisme s'éteindra
Pour être à la loi docile
Et chaque Français s'exercera
Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira.
Malgré les mutins, tout réussira.
Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira.
Le peuple en ce jour sans cesse répète
Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira
Et dans 2000 ans on s'en souviendra,
Le despotisme expirera;
La liberté triomphera.
Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira.
Nous n'avons plus ni nobles, ni prêtres,
Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira.
L'égalité partout règnera.
L'esclave autrichien le suivra,
Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira.
Et leur infernale clique
Au diable s'envolera.
Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira
Les aristocrates à la lanterne,
Ah! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira
Les aristocrates, on les pendra.
