A/N: I was going to write this poem in French but I'm too elementary in French to actually be able to make it sound passable, so I wrote it in English. I am more fluent in English than in French. Please R+R!

The sun is rising

The motherland will fall

My friends are on the barricade

I wait for the last stand to come

Seven muskets pointed at me

I wait for the shots to hit me

The republic shall live

I shall not bend even now

I shall not desert my friends

I shall not betray my kin

One last stand

All I can cry is

Vive la France! Vive la republique!
