Hymne Mongasque

Hymne Mongasque is Monaco's national anthem. Theophile Bellando wrote the lyrics and composed the music of the 1st edition of Hymne Mongasque in 1841, later Castil-Blaze modified the melody and made several other minor changes. In 1848 the National Guard, created by Prince Charles III, adopted Bellando's song and it became the March of the National Loyalists. In 1896 Charles Albrecht composed a new arrangement for piano, published by Tihebaux in Paris and called Air National de Monaco; in 1897 Decourcelle of Nice, printed an edition called 429 Hymne National de Monaco for piano. Years later, Francois Bellini orchestrated the song by Albrecht; this new arrangement for a trio was judged to be too long for people in 1900 and ceased being played. The modern version was created by Leon Jehin in 1914 and was played for the first time during the 25th anniversary of the beginning Prince Albert's reign. Finally in 1931 Louis Notari wrote the lyrics in the Monegasque language.

Oil c ne toca !

F che cadn sace ben aio d'ai
Despœi tugi sci d'u nostru paise
Se ride au ventu u meme pavayun
Despœi tugi a cur russa e gianca
E st r'emblema d'a nostra libert !
Grandi e piciui r'an tugi respet !
Amu avu sempre r'a meme tradiiun ;
Amu avu sempre r'a meme religiun ;
Amu avu per u nostru un

Ma defendemu tti a nostra tradiiun ;
Nun smu pa forti,

HYMNE MONGASQUE
Oh, vous qui voisinez !
Oh, vous qui nous regardez !
Il importe que chacun retienne bien ceci :
Depuis toujours, le mme pavillon
Flotte joyeusement au vent de notre Pays
Depuis toujours les couleurs rouge et blanc
Constituent le symbole de notre libert
Grands et Petits l'ont toujours respect
Nous avons perptu les mmes traditions
Nous clbrons la mme religion
Nous avons l'honneur
D'avoir toujours eu les mmes Princes
Et personne ne pourra nous faire changer
Tant que le soleil brillera dans le ciel
Dieu nous aidera
Et jamais personne ne pourra nous faire changer
Personne
Nous ne sommes pas bien nombreux
Mais nous veillons tous la dfense de notre identit
Nous ne sommes pas trs puissants
Mais, s'il le veut, Dieu nous aidera.
Oh, vous qui voisinez !
Oh, vous qui nous regardez !
Que chacun prenne bien conscience de cela.

NATIONAL ANTHEM
Greetings, to our neighbors!
Greetings, to all those who are watching us!
It is important that you remember the following;
Forever, the same flag fly's happily in the wind
over our country
Forever, the colors red and white are the symbols
of our freedom
Old and young have always shown their respect.
We carry on the same traditions
We celebrate the same religion
We are honored to have always had the same Princes
And no one will make us change
As long as the sun shines in the sky
God will help us
No one will ever be able to make us change
No one.
There are not many of us
But we are vigilant over our identity
We are not very powerful
But if God chooses, he will help us.
Greetings, to our neighbors!
Greetings, to all those who are watching us!
Everyone should be aware of this.
