Allons enfants de la Patrie
Le jour de gloire est arrivé!
Contre nous de la tyrannie
L'étendard sanglant est levé (bis)
Entendez-vous dans les campagnes
Mugir ces féroces soldats?
Ils viennent jusque dans nos bras
Égorger nos fils, nos compagnes!
Aus armes, citoyens!
Formez vos bataillons!
Marchons, marchons,
Q'un sang impur
Abreuve nos sillons!
Arise, children of the Fatherland
The day of glory has arrived!
Against us, tyranny's
Bloody banner is raised (repeat).
Do you hear, in the fields
The howling of these savage soldiers?
They are coming into our midst
To cut the throats of our sons, our wives!
To arms, citizens!
Form your battalions!
Let us march, let us march
Until tainted blood
Waters our fields!
