La Cigale et la Fourmi turns a classic French fable into a modern groove. We Are World Citizens and SOAN paint the scene: the cicada (a free-spirited singer) spends the whole summer serenading the world, while her practical neighbor, the ant, quietly stocks up for winter. When the cold wind finally bites, the cicada has nothing to eat and begs the ant for help. The ant refuses, reminding her that carefree melodies do not fill an empty stomach.
The song’s pulsing rhythm and playful call to “dansez maintenant” make the lesson feel both fun and thought-provoking. It asks you to reflect on the eternal tug-of-war between living in the moment and preparing for tomorrow. Will you applaud the ant’s discipline or the cicada’s creativity? As the beat fades, the story lingers, nudging you to find your own balance between work and play.
