United in the struggle for independence,
Let us hold up our heads, so long bowed, And now, for good, let us keep moving boldly ahead, in peace. Oh, ardent people, by hard work we shall build, In peace, a country more beautiful than before.

VERSE Countrymen, sing the sacred hymn of your solidarity, Proudly salute the golden emblem of your soverignity, Congo.

REFRAIN Blessed gift (Congo) of our forefathers (Congo), Oh (Congo) beloved country (Congo), We shall people your soil and ensure your greatness. (30th June) Oh gentle sun (30th June) of 30th June, (Sacred day) Be witness (sacred day) of the immortal oath of freedom That we hand on to our children for ever.
