FRENCH LYRICS

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 voisins 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 your 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
