Mayotte (claimed by the Comoros but under French administration) is also mentioned in the song.
The anthem replaced a previous anthem titled "Ungwana" ("Liberty"), also known as "Comor Masiwa Mane" ("Four Comorian Islands"),[6] adopted in 1976 under the Ali Soilih administration following a competition won by writer and musician Abou Chihabi.[7] It was used until 1978,[4] when a coup by Ahmed Abdallah and Bob Denard took place.

Au faîte le Drapeau flotte
Apelle à la Liberté totale.
La nation apparaît,
Force d'une même religion au sein des Comores.
Vivons dans l'amour réciproque dans nos îles.
Les Comoriens issus de même sang,
Nous embrassons la même idéologie religieuse.
Les îles où nous somme nés !
Les îles qui nous ont prodigué la bonne éducation.
Dieu y a apporté son aide.
Conservons notre unité pour l'amour le patrie,
Amour pour la religion
Et pour l'évolution.
Au faîte le Drapeau flotte
Depuis le 6 du mois de juillet
La nation apparaît,
Les îles devenues souveraines;
Maore - N'Dzouani - Mouwali - et N'Gazidja.
Gardons notre amour pour les îles. |
العلم يرفرف
ليعلن الإستقلال التام
ترتقي الأمة
بسبب إيماننا في جزرنا القمرية
دعنا نتحلى بالإخلاص لحب جزرنا العظيمة
نحن القمريون من دم ٍ واحد
نحن القمريون من إيمانٍ واحد
على هذه الجزر قد ولدنا
هذه الجزر قد رعتنا
نرجوا من الله مساعدتنا دائماً
لحب أرضنا الأم
ولحب ديننا والعالم
العلم يرفرف
من السادس من يوليو
ترتقي الأمة
جزرنا موحدة
ماوري وأنزون موهيلي والقمر
دعنا نتحلى بالإخلاص لحب جزرنا العظيمة |
The flag is flying,
Announcing total independence;
The nation rises up
Because of the faith we have in our Comoros.
Let us always have devotion to love our Great Islands.
We Comorians are of one blood,
We Comorians are of one faith.
On these Islands we were born,
These Islands brought us up.
May God always help us;
Let us always have the firm resolve
To love our fatherland,
Love our religion and the world.
The flag is flying.
From the Sixth of July
The Nation rises up;
Our Islands are lined up.
Mayotte and Anjouan, Moheli and N'Gazidja,
Let us always have devotion to love our Great Islands. |
