Lebanese National Anthem
النشيد الوطني اللبناني
Lyrics:
Arabic:
كلنـا للوطـن للعـلى للعـلم
ملء عين الزّمن سـيفنا والقـلم
سهلنا والجبـل منبت للرجـال
قولنا والعمـل في سبيل الكمال
كلنا للوطن للعلى للعلم
كلّنا للوطن
شيخنـا والفتـى عنـد صـوت الوطن
أسـد غـاب متى سـاورتنا الفــتن
شــرقنـا قلبـه أبــداً لبـنان
صانه ربه لمدى الأزمان
كلنا للوطن للعلى للعلم
كلنا للوطن
بحـره بــرّه درّة الشرقين
رِفـدُهّ بــرّهُ مالئ القطبين
إسمـه عـزّه منذ كان الجدود
مجــدُهُ أرزُهُ رمزُهُ للخلود
كلّنا للوطن للعلى للعلم
كلّنا للوطن
Arabic (transliterated):
Kulluna lil-watan, lil’ula lil-’alam
Mil’u ayn az-zaman, saifuna wal-qalam
Sahluna wal-jabal, manbitun lir-rijal
Qawluna wal-’amal fi sabil-el-kamal
Kulluna lil-watan, lil’ula lil-’alam,
Kulluna lil-watan
Shaykhuna wal-fata, ‘Inda sawt-il-watan
Usdu ghaben mata, sawaratn-al-fitan
Sharquna qalbuhu, abadan Lubnan
Sanahu rabbuhu, li mada-l-azman
Kulluna lil-watan, lil’ula lil-’alam,
Kulluna lil-watan
Bahruhu barruhu, durratush-sharqayn
Rifduhu birruhu, mali’ ul-qutbayn
Ismuhu ‘izzuhu, munzu kana-l-judud
Majduhu arzuhu, ramzuhu lil-khulud
Kulluna lil-watan, lil’ula lil-’alam,
Kulluna lil-watan
English:
All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
Our valor and our writings are the envy of the ages.
Our mountains and our valleys, they bring forth stalwart men.
And to Perfection we devote our words and labor.
All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
All of us! For our Country!
Our Elders and our children, they await our Country’s call,
And on the Day of Crisis they are as Lions of the Jungle.
The heart of our East is ever Lebanon,
May God preserve him until the end of time.
All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
All of us! For our Country
The Gems of the East are his land and sea.
Throughout the world his good deeds flow from pole to pole.
And his name is his glory since time began.
The cedars are his pride, his immortality’s symbol.
All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
All of us! For our Country
