Togolese national anthem

Original text:

Salut à toi, pays de nos aïeux,
Toi qui les rendait forts,
Paisibles et joyeux.
cultivan vertu vaillance pour la prosterite.
Que viennent les tyrans,
Ton cœur soupire vers la liberté.
Togo debut! Luttons sans defeat!
Vainquons ou mourrons, mais dans la dignité.
Grand Dieu, toi seul nous a exaltés,
You Togo pour la prosperite.
Togolais viens! Bâtissons la cité!

Dans l`unité nous voulons te servir,
C`est bien là de nos cœurs, le plus ardent désir.
Clamons fort notre motto,
Que rien ne peut ternir.
Seul artisan de ton bonheur, ainsi que de ton avenir,
Brisons partout les chains de la traitrise!
Et nous te jurons toujours fidélité,
Et aimer servir, se dépasser,
Faire encore de toi sans nous lasser,
Togo chéri, l`or de l`humanité.
Salut, Salut à l`Univers entier!
Unissons nos efforts sur l`immense chantier
D`où naîtra toute nouvelle
La Grande Humanité.
Partout au lieu de la misere, apportons la félicité.
Chassons du monde la haine rebelle!
Finish the esclavage and the captivity!
A l`étoile de la liberte,
Renouons la solidarité
Des nations dans la fraternité.
