magidAllons enfants de la patrie,
Le jour de gloire est arrive.
Contre nous de la tyrannie
L'etendards sanglant est leve,
L'etandards sanglant est leve,
Entendez vous dans les compagnes.
Mugir c'est feroces soldats!
Ils viens jusque dans nos bras,
Egorgez nos fils, nos compagnes.
Aux armes, citoyens! Formez vos battailons!
Marchons, marchons, qu'un sang impur,
Abreuve nos sillons.*
Happy Bastille Day.**
* A couple of typos in there (worst is viennent), but it's a tribute to my high school French class that I could do this from memory 25 years later. Hats off to Madame.
** Bastille Day sameach*** is just wrong. Bad brain.
*** I seem to have only one active "other language" track in my brain. I wish I were more actively polyglot.
