Cameroon National Anthem and Lyrics – World Countries Atlas

O Cameroun berceau de nos anc�tres, Va debout et jaloux de ta libert�, Comme un soleil ton drapeau fier doit �tre, Un symbole ardent de foi et d’unit�. Que tous tes enfants du Nord au Sud, De l’Est � l’Ouest soient tout amour, Te servir que ce soit le seul but, Pour remplir leur devoir toujours. CHORUS: Ch�re Patrie, Terre ch�rie, Tu es notre seul et vrai bonheur, Notre joie et notre vie, En toi l’amour et le grand honneur. Tu es la tombe ou dorment nos p�res, Le jardin que nos a�eux ont cultiv�, Nous travaillons pour te rendre prosp�re, Un beau jour enfin nous serons arriv�s. De l’Afrique soit fid�le enfant, Et progresse toujours en paix, Esp�rant que tes jeunes enfants, T’aimeront sans borne � jamais. CHORUS: Ch�re Patrie, Terre ch�rie, Tu es notre seul et vrai bonheur, Notre joie et notre vie,

En toi l’amour et le grand honneur.

O Cameroon, Thou Cradle of our Fathers, Holy Shrine where in our midst they now repose, Their tears and blood and sweat thy soil did water, On thy hills and valleys once their tillage rose. Dear Fatherland, thy worth no tongue can tell! How can we ever pay thy due? Thy welfare we will win in toil and love and peace, Will be to thy name ever true! CHORUS: Land of Promise, land of Glory! Thou, of life and joy, our only store! Thine be honour, thine devotion, And deep endearment, for evermore. From Shari, from where the Mungo meanders From along the banks of lowly Boumba Stream, Muster thy sons in union close around thee, Mighty as the Buea Mountain be their team; Instil in them the love of gentle ways,https://www.world-countries.orghttps://www.world-countries.org Regret for errors of the past; Foster, for Mother Africa, a loyalty That true shall remain to the last. CHORUS: Land of Promise, land of Glory! Thou, of life and joy, our only store! Thine be honour, thine devotion,

And deep endearment, for evermore.
