Debout, les damnes de la Terre, debout, les forcat de la faim!
La raison, tonne en son eratere: c'est l'eruption de la fin,
Du passe faisons table rase, foules d'escalves, debout, debout!
Le monde va changer de base: nous ne somme rien, soyons tout!C'est la lutte finale, groupons nous et demain,
L'union syndical sere le genre humain.
(Arise, ye prisoners of starvation, arise ye wretched of the Earth:
For justice thunders condemnation, a better world's in birth.
No more tradition's chains shall bind us, arise ye slaves no more in thrall;
The Earth shall rise on new foundations, we have been naught, we shall be all.
'Tis the final conflict, let each stand in their place;
The International Union shall be the human race!) Mike, The Everett Citizen
Debout! Debout!
