Frontières Lyrics in English Yannick Noah

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Frontières by Yannick Noah from French to English.
I'm talking to you about a world that doesn't exist
A world where borders wouldn't divide
The slightest difference as the ultimate treasure
No barrier, no banner, pointless fortresses
Share the same sun, wake under the same rainbow
Hope for the same light, redraw other borders
I'm talking to you about a world we'll have to build
That so many men before us dreamed of building
Childish utopia or a lifelong fight
Darkness or love, it's up to us to choose
Share the same sun, wake under the same rainbow
Hope for the same light, redraw other borders
Where are the differences in children's hearts
From there or elsewhere, yesterday or now
The other is of my rank, of my blood, he's a brother
From the sky, there's no line on the earth
Share the same sun, wake under the same rainbow
Hope for the same light, redraw other borders
I'm talking to you about a world that doesn't exist
A world where borders wouldn't divide
Childish utopia or a lifelong fight
Redraw other borders

SONG MEANING

Imagine tuning your radio and suddenly stepping into a bright, border-free playground: that is exactly where Yannick Noah takes us in Frontières. Singing over a sunny reggae-pop groove, the French artist paints a picture of one single planet where passports are pointless and every “difference” is treated as treasure. He invites us to share the same sun, the same rainbow, the same hope, reminding us that—seen from the sky—there are no lines cutting the Earth into pieces.

But Noah is not just day-dreaming. He flips the microphone toward us, asking whether this vision is a childish fantasy or the lifelong battle we are ready to fight. The choice is ours: cling to the “tenebres” of fear or redraw the maps with love. Frontières is both a lullaby and a rallying cry, urging listeners to erase the walls in their heads and hearts so a brand-new world can unfold.
