Oh dear land of our ancestors
Oh beautiful Madagascar
Our love for you will not falter,
And will remain to your cause eternally faithful.

Bless, oh Creator,
This island of our ancestors
May it know joy and happiness
And may we be truly happy.

Oh beloved land of our ancestors
We wish to place at your service
Our body, our heart, our soul,
which is indeed precious and full of dignity.

Oh beloved land of our ancestors
We pray that you be blessed,
By the Creator of the universe
who is the foundation of your existence.
