The national anthem of Lebanon (Arabic: النشيد الوطني اللبناني, romanized: an-Našīd al-Waṭanī al-Lubnānī, French: hymne national du Liban) was adopted in 1927.
I
Tous pour la patrie, pour la gloire et le drapeau.
Par l'épée et la plume nous marquons les temps.
Notre plaine et nos montagnes font des hommes vigoureux.
À la perfection nous consacrons notre parole et notre travail.
Refrain:
Tous pour la patrie, pour la gloire et le drapeau.
Tous pour la patrie.
II
Nos vieux et nos jeunes attendent l'appel de la patrie.
Le jour de la crise, ils sont comme les lions de la jungle.
Le cœur de notre Orient demeure à jamais le Liban.
Que Dieu le préserve jusqu'à la fin des temps.
Refrain
III
Sa terre et sa mer sont les joyaux des deux orients.
Ses bonnes actions envahissent les pôles.
Son nom est sa gloire depuis le début des temps.
Son cèdre est sa fierté, son symbole éternel.
Refrain
I
All of us for the homeland, for excellence, for the flag,
Filling the eye of time, our sword and pen.
Our plain and mountain – a breeding ground of men,
Our speech and work – in the manner of perfection.
Chorus:
All of us for the homeland, for excellence, for the flag
All of us for the homeland.
II
Our elder and youth – in reach of the voice of the homeland,
A lion of jungles when we rushed into the wars.
Our East's heart – forever Lebanon,
Protected by the Lord for the duration of time.
Chorus
III
Its sea, its land – the pearl of the two Easts.
Its supporter – its righteousness, filling the two poles.
Its name – its honour, since the forefathers have existed.
Its glory – its cedar, its symbol for eternity.
Chorus
I
All of us! For our Country, for our Glory and Flag!
Our valor and our writings are the envy of the ages.
Our mountain and our valley, they bring forth stalwart men.
And to Perfection we devote our words and labor.
Chorus:
All of us! For our Country, for our Glory and Flag!
All of us! For our Country!
II
Our Elders and our children, they await our Country's call,
And on the Day of Crisis they are as Lions of the Jungle.
The heart of our East is ever Lebanon,
God has preserved her until the end of time.
Chorus
III
The Gems of the East are her land and sea.
Throughout the world her good deeds flow from pole to pole.
And her name is her glory since time began.
The cedars are her pride, her immortality's symbol.
