French lyrics
Au faîte le Drapeau flotte
Apelle a là Liberté totale.
La nation apparaît,
Force d'une meme religion au sein des Comores.
Vivons dans l'amour rèciproque dans nos îles.
Les Comoriens issue de même sang,
Nous embrassons la même idéologie réligieuse.
Les îles où nous somme nés!!
Les îles qui nous ont prodigués la bonne éducation.
Dieu ya apporté son aide.
Conservons notre unité pour l'amour de la patrie,
Amour pour la réligion
Et pour l'évolution.
Au faîte le Drapeau flotte
Depuis le 6 du mois de Juillet
La nation apparaît,
Les îles devenues souveraines;
Maore - N'Dzouani - Mouwali - et N'Gazidja.
Gardons notre amour pour les îles.
Anthem Lyrics English
The flag is flying,Announcing complete independence;
The nation rises up
Because of the faith we have
In this our Comoria.
Let us always have devotion
To love our Great Islands.
We Comorians are of one blood,
We Comorians are of one faith.
On these Islands we were born,
These Islands brought us up.
May God always help us;
Let us always have the firm resolve
To love our fatherland,
Love our religion and the world.
The flag is flying.
From the Sixth of July
The Nation rises up;
Our Islands are lined up.
Maori and Anzuan, Moheli and Comore,
Let us always have devotion
To love our Great Islands.
