No more war / Plus jamais la guerre
The Deserter, Boris Vian ,1943
www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjndTXyk3mw
Mr President,
I am writing you a letter
That you will read, perhaps
If you have the time
I came to receive
My military papers
To go to the war
Before Wednesday evening
Mr President
I don't want to do it
I am not on this earth
To kill poor people
It's not to make you angry
I must say to you
My decision is made
I am going to desert

Since I was born
I saw my father die
I saw my brothers leave
And my children cry
My mother has suffered so much
That she is inside her tomb
And she mocks bombs
And she mocks the worms
When I was a prisoner
You stole my wife from me
You stole my soul from me
And all my dear past
Tomorrow in the early morning
I will close my door
In the nose of the dead years
I will go on the roads

I will beg for my life
On the roads of France
Of Brittany and Provence
And I will say to people
Refuse to obey
Refuse to do it
Don't go to war
Refuse to leave
If we must give one's blood
Go to give yours
You are a good apostle
Mr President
If you chase me
Tell your policemen
That I am not armed
And that they can shoot

The image is excellently composed and very sensitively edited, Eric!
The song linked and translated by you here fits perfectly.

Annalena Baerbock, German Foreign Minister, said on Twitter addressed to the Russian ruler: “It is not greatness when you attack weaker people, bomb cities, let children die”.
I wish Russian soldiers the decency and courage to resist Putin's pathological lust for power.
A pious wish, I know, and yet justified.
