Serrez vos rangs (original)Serrez vos rangs (translation)
La voix du canon résonne The voice of the cannon resounds
L’air, tout empoudré, frissonne The air, all powdered, shivers
Serrez vos rangs, mes enfants! Close your ranks, my children!
C’est le cri de la mêlée It's the cry of the fray
Et l'écho de la vallée And the echo of the valley
Répète: Serrez vos rangs! Repeat: Close your ranks!
On marche au pas gymnastique We walk in gymnastic step
La fièvre se communique Fever communicates
Par les yeux étincelants Through sparkling eyes
On croise la baïonnette We cross the bayonet
Et chaque officier répète: And each officer repeats:
En avant, serrez vos rangs! Forward, close your ranks!
On avance… la mitraille We advance... the grapeshot
Fait la part de la bataille Share the battle
On enjambe les mourants We step over the dying
Gloire à celui qui succombe Glory to the one who succumbs
Dit le commandant qui tombe Says the falling commander
En criant: Serrez vos rangs! Shouting: Close your ranks!
Commandants et capitaines Commanders and captains
Sont là, couchés dans la plaine Are there, lying in the plain
Il reste les lieutenants There remain the lieutenants
Allons!Let's go!
dit l’un d’eux qui crie: said one of them, shouting:
Pour l’honneur et la patrie! For honor and country!
Avancez!Come on!
Serrez vos rangs! Close your ranks!
Le plomb crève les poitrines The lead bursts the chests
Le sang creuse des ravines Blood digs gullies
La rude voix des sergents The rough voice of sergeants
Couvre l’ouragan des balles Cover the hurricane of bullets
On entend, par intervalles: Intervals means:
Sacrebleu!Damn it!
Serrez vos rangs! Close your ranks!
Sans officier et sans guide Without an officer and without a guide
Ils avancent, intrépides They advance, fearless
Un caporal de vingt ans A twenty-year-old corporal
Rassemblant les escouades Gathering the squads
Leur dit: Allons, camarades Said to them: Come on, comrades
Pour mourir, serrez vos rangs! To die, close your ranks!
Des éclats de la foudreBursts of lightning
On vit tomber, noir de poudre We saw falling, powder black
Le dernier de ces vaillants The last of these valiant
Il cria: Vive la France! He shouted: Long live France!
Et l'écho répondit: France And the echo answered: France
En avant, serrez vos rangs!Forward, close your ranks!
