English translation (by Google Translate) of Add’s note under the song: “I came to France before going to present the Carabao Cup in England, but to be honest, it was so cold that I didn’t want to go anywhere, so I sat down and composed this song to commemorate my visit to France, which has many interesting histories. This song talks about the horrors of the Revolution, the guillotine, bread, etc. All of these are symbols that you can understand if you read and research further.”

The translation below, also mostly falls straight out of Google Translate:

The Tree of Liberty was born on this land.
More than 200 years after the Bastille was destroyed,
it is a symbol of liberation that the world remembers and uses.
Although the legend fights for freedom, the last chapter ends at the guillotine.
“The horror of revolution” is something that Karl Marx supported.
Dictators, feudalism, capitalists must have their heads cut off and roll on the ground.

The seeds of freedom are born and sprout all over the world.
[They] give birth to the theory of dialectical materialism.
Our world revolves with conflict. Which side is right? Which side is wrong?
The casual factors are the intelligence that the new generation must study and learn by themselves.
I like French bread and like learning about history.
The bread that is sold in the market once gave birth to music
of class revolution. Lurid red blood was brought out to smear.
Who is wrong and who is right? Think for yourself. You talented youth still have time

I am not an Old School [Thai Communist]*
I am not a Marxist
I am an old man who sings a song from experience
I am not an Old School [Thai Communist]*
I am not a Marxist
I am an old man who sings a Song For life
The letter from Paris
The letter from Paris

*For some reason I am almost sure the whole phrase is “Old School Communist,” referring to people who were in the 70s, and still are at heart, Thai Communists.
