The National Anthem of Algeria in english


We swear by the lightning that destroys,  ***  By the virtuous and fragrant blood,
By the shining, fluttering banners,  ***  In the steep and majestic mountains,
That we have risen to revolution in life or death  ***  and we have resolved that Algeria shall live
So bear witness, bear witness, bear witness!

We are soldiers in the name of righteousness have revolted  ***  And for our independence to war have risen.
Had we not spoken up none would have listened  ***  So we have taken the drum of gunpowder as our rhythm
And the sound of machine guns as our melody,  ***  and we have resolved that Algeria shall live –
So bear witness, bear witness, bear witness!

O France, the time of reproach has passed  ***  And we have closed like a book;
O France, the day of reckoning is at hand  ***  So prepare to receive from us our answer!
In our revolution is the end of empty talk;  ***  and we have resolved that Algeria shall live –
So bear witness, bear witness, bear witness!

From our heroes we shall make an army come to being,  ***  and on our dead we build glory,
Our spirits shall ascend to immortality  ***  And on our shoulders we shall raise the standard.
To the National Liberation Front we have sworn an oath,  ***  and we have resolved that Algeria shall live –
So bear witness, bear witness, bear witness!

The cry of the Fatherland sounds from the battlefields.  ***  Listen to it and heed the call!
Let it be written with the blood of martyrs  ***  And be read to future generations.
Oh, Glory, we have held out our hand to you,  ***  and we have resolved that Algeria shall live –
So bear witness, bear witness, bear witness!
