A blatu blande bitos biuon!
A ‚m‘ atriia, a ‚ma helvetia!
[English translation:]
Grim battles
Against countless foes
Have steeled you
From the shores of the Rhine
To the top of the Alps,
Your fair meadows,
Your rank heathlands
The choirs of bards
Sing the glory
Of the undying names
Of fallen heroes,
That gave their lives,
Their blood
For the freedom of their fatherland.
Oh Sovereignty of my fathers
Oh land of my countrymen!
From your root sprang
A glorious nation
Of dure heroes.
Oh dulcet blossom of the living world!
Oh my fatherland, oh my Helvetia!
Your woman and maids
Noble and fair,
Your highest men
To this bravesong
They join in
The sword in my hand
Stand up and sing:
