This is a Boris Vian's song. I hope you'll translate, and I hope you like it, too.
Strength and dissobedience!
LE DÉSERTEUR
Monsieur le président Je vous fais une lettre Que vous lirez peut-être Si vous avez le temps
Je viens de recevoir Mes papiers militaires Pour partir à la guerre Avant mercredi soir
Monsieur le président Je ne veux pas la faire Je ne suis pas sur terre Pour tuer des pauvres gens
C'est pas pour vous fâcher Il faut que je vous dise Ma décision est prise Je m'en vais déserter
Depuis que je suis né J'ai vu mourir mon père J'ai vu partir mes frères Et pleurer mes enfants
Ma mère a tant souffert Elle est dedans sa tombe Et se moque des bombes Et se moque des vers
Quand j'étais prisonnier On m'a volé ma femme On m'a volé mon âme Et tout mon cher passé
Demain de bon matin Je fermerai ma porte Au nez des années mortes J'irai sur les chemins
Je mendierai ma vie Sur les routes de France De Bretagne en Provence Et je dirai aux gens:
« Refusez d'obéir Refusez de la faire N'allez pas à la guerre Refusez de partir »
S'il faut donner son sang Allez donner le vôtre Vous êtes bon apôtre Monsieur le président
Si vous me poursuivez Prévenez vos gendarmes Que je n'aurai pas d'armes Et qu'ils pourront tirer
