French National Anthem (in English)

Wow the french are brutal 😂

[rosepuppy]

“So how many times should we mention Blood?”
French: Oui

[teethtoilet]

“They’re coming into your arms”
Aww thats wholesome-
“To cut the throats of your sons”

[isadoracostahamsi]

So that is why the French are so good at going on strikes and revolutions. They have an instruction manual in the anthem.

I know it's not a good translation, but i love using "March on, March on" because it's "Marchons, Marchons" in French.

He really be singing this like a Disney
protagonist

Fun fact : The Marseillaise is actualy 15 verses long, and one of them was removed because it was too violent

[wingspantt]

"French, what do you want people to think when people hear our song sang?"
French: "Sang?"
UL: "Sang?"
French: "Okay sure, sang sang sang!"

(sang means blood in French)

[naly]

"Impure blood"...
Lyrics must have been written by Malfoy ancestors.

[pauliuszvironas]

-"I love french music"
-"Because it's romantic?"
-"..."
-"Because it's romantic, yeah?"

[CrippleX]

Me: "Aaaah French, the language of love."
French: "Uuhm yes, about that..."

[throughcolouredglasses]

Okay but the SINGING?! I'd never have expected that omg??? That's pretty good!!!

my sister had french literature for her major in college. first time she put on french national anthem i instantly like it more than my own country national anthem, simply because the melody is so upbeat and feels really encouraging. it's not trying to sound glorious or victorious, but it's the sound that gives you power to become the victor.
several days later i asked her to translate it for me then i realized why. the lyric is just 🔥😠😤🥶💪💪🤜🤛

Germany: Leaves out 2 verses saying "germany, germany over all"

French: Hold my blood

[Wifibee]

"Hey French what colour do you l-"
"ROUGE."

[Swissswoosher]

When you don’t understand French: 😁
When you are able to understand French: 💀

[AripopAnimates]

UK anthem: God save the queen!

French anthem: *T H E B L O O D Y F L A G I S R A I S E D*

[Alsacienne_d_Alsace]

And he took the softer part of the Marseillaise !

[alandoan]

The tone is courageous and heroic
The lyrics “death, stab, M U R D E R, D E A T H”

[singingcat]

I’m really impressed by the way you translated it, honestly. It’s not easy to make a song sound legit in a language different from the original while retaining the meaning. Chapeau
