كلنـا للوطـن للعـلى للعـلم
All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
ملء عين الزّمن سـيفنا والقـلم
Our valour and our writings are the envy of the ages.
سهلنا والجبـل منبت للرجـال
Our mountains and our valleys, they bring forth stalwart men.
قولنا والعمـل في سبيل الكمال
And to Perfection all our efforts we devote.
كلنا للوطن للعلى للعلم
All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
كلّنا للوطن
All of us! For our Country
شيخنـا والفتـى عنـد صـوت الوطن
Our Elders and our children, they await our Country’s call,
أسـد غـاب متى سـاورتنا الفــتن
And on the Day of Crisis they are as Lions of the Jungle.
شــرقنـا قلبـه أبــداً لبـنان
The heart of our East is ever Lebanon,
صانه ربه لمدى الأزمان
May God preserve her until end of time.
كلنا للوطن للعلى للعلم
All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
كلنا للوطن
All of us! For our Country
بحـره بــرّه درّة الشرقين
The Gems of the East are her land and sea.
رِفـدُهّ بــرّهُ مالئ القطبين
Throughout the world her good deeds flow from pole to pole.
إسمـه عـزّه منذ كان الجدود
And her name is her glory since time began.
مجــدُهُ أرزُهُ رمزُهُ للخلود
Immortality’s Symbol–the Cedar–is her Pride.
كلّنا للوطن للعلى للعلم
All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
كلّنا للوطن
All of us! For our Country
