La Grande Infamie
Akitsa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Par les mers et les océans
Le poison mortel va de l'avant
Rien ne peut l'arrêter
Car toute puissante est sa volonté
Ignobles mortels annihilés
La furie de la supériorité
Peindra vos terres en noir
Et rasera votre sol tel un rasoir
Plus de passé, plus de présent
L'armée du mal marche de l'avant
Tout est perdu, tout est gagné
Saluons l'infâme prospérité
The lyrics to Akitsa's song La Grande Infamie speak of a powerful and unstoppable force, spreading like a deadly poison through the seas and oceans. The force is described as having an all-powerful will, impossible to stop. The song goes on to describe the destruction wrought by this force, as it annihilates all that stands in its path. The mortal victims of this force are called "ignoble", and the song talks of the triumph of this superiority and how it will blacken the lands and level everything like a razor. The chorus repeats the theme that everything is lost and everything is won, and that we must acknowledge the infamy and prosperity of this unstoppable force.
The lyrics seem to touch on themes of fascism, totalitarianism, and the rise of destructive and oppressive ideologies. The imagery of the poison spreading through the seas and blackening the land is a powerful metaphor for the destruction wrought by such ideologies. The use of the word "infamy" in the title of the song also suggests a condemnation of the ideology being described.
Overall, the lyrics to La Grande Infamie paint a bleak picture of an unstoppable force that wreaks destruction and oppresses all that stand in its path. The song serves as a cautionary tale, warning listeners of the dangers of destructive and oppressive ideologies and the importance of resisting such forces.
