«Nos cœurs sont pleins de printemps, vivre est une prière que seul l’union des hommes peut exaucer» Rachida Belkacem          

“Our hearts are full of spring, living is a prayer fulfilled only through men’s union”

«Le ciel n’est pas sans mémoire, nos vies l’emplissent de notre courage intense et notre humanité» Rachida Belkacem         

“The sky is not without memories, our lives fill it with intense courage and humanity”

«Tu naquis le jour de mon crépuscule,

La lueur éclairant mon chemin,

Me tendant la main,

Faisant éclore d’un geste les fleurs,

Transformant chaque combat,

Par ta présence épurant le monde,

Le transformant en bénédiction divine»

“You are born the day of my dusk,

The light shining on my path,

Handing me your hand,

Making flowers blossom with a gesture,

Transforming every combat,

Purifying the world through your presence

And transforming it to a divine blessing”
