La Ville

Cold, empty churchyard
Bullets stain the holy shell
Women, children, murdered without reason
I stand in a town where the innocent fell

Mercilessly massacred, Swastikas' shoot
To this day, nobody knows why they came
This desolate Ville, a sad reminder stands
In memory of those lost, in Oradour-sur-Glane
