Chad National Anthem Lyrics

Chad



La Tchadienne

Original French Words

CHORUS

Peuple Tchadien, debout et à l'ouvrage!

Tu as conquis ta terre et ton droit;

Ta liberté naîtra de ton courage.

Lève les yeux, l'avenir est à Toi.


O mon Pays, que Dieu te prenne en garde,

Que tes voisons admirent tes enfants.

Joyeux, pacifique, avance en chantant,

Fidèle à tes anciens qui te regardent.


CHORUS



English Translation

CHORUS

People of Chad, arise and take up the task!

You have conquered the soil and won your rights;

Your freedom will be born of your courage.

Lift up your eyes, the future is yours.


Oh, my Country, may God protect you,

May your neighbours admire your children.

Joyful, peaceful, advance as you sing,

Faithful to your fathers who are watching you.


CHORUS
