Lyrics:
Kulluna lil-watan, lil'ula lil-'alam
Mil'u ayn az-zaman, saifuna wal-qalam
Sahluna wal-jabal, manbitun lir-rijal
Qawluna wal-'amal fi sabil-el-kamal

Kulluna lil-watan, lil'ula lil-'alam,
Kulluna lil-watan

Shaykhuna wal-fata, 'Inda sawt-il-watan
Usdu ghaben mata, sawaratn-al-fitan
Sharquna qalbuhu, abadan Lubnan
Sanahu rabbuhu, li mada-l-azman

Kulluna lil-watan, lil'ula lil-'alam,
Kulluna lil-watan

Bahruhu barruhu, durratush-sharqayn
Rifduhu birruhu, mali' ul-qutbayn
Ismuhu 'izzuhu, munzu kana-l-judud
Majduhu arzuhu, ramzuhu lil-khulud

Kulluna lil-watan, lil'ula lil-'alam,
Kulluna lil-watan

Translation:
All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
Our valor and our writings are the envy of the ages.
Our mountains and our valleys, they bring forth stalwart men.
And to Perfection we devote our words and labor.

All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
All of us! For our Country.

Our Elders and our children, they await our Country's call,
And on the Day of Crisis they are as Lions of the Jungle.
The heart of our East is ever Lebanon,
May God preserve him until the end of time.

All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
All of us! For our Country.

The Gems of the East are his land and sea.
Throughout the world his good deeds flow from pole to pole.
And his name is his glory since time began.
The cedars are his pride, his immortality's symbol.

All of us! For our Country, for our Flag and Glory!
All of us! For our Country!
