Speak the word [fɔːrˈmɪd.ə.bəl]—
standing tall as a mountain,
unwavering with reverence and respect
and unparalleled demeanor.

Dire le mot [fɔʁmidabl]—
avec la caresse d’une brise,
pour mettre tranquille un coeur
dans le silence d’un abri fidèle.

Speak the word
and take up the sword—
dire le mot
et prendre le bouclier.

Pour elle,
fille de clan—
je prendrai les deux.
For her,
precious daughter of the clan—
I will be both,
un ami [fɔʁmidabl],
a [fɔːrˈmɪd.ə.bəl] friend.
