French text by Gabriel T. Guillaume:
Musique
Fidèle compagnon, expression de nos âmes,
Musique, nous t’aimons, rallume notre flamme…
Tu es la vie, tu es lumière;
Tu es la flamme qui éclaire.
Du lever du soleil jusqu’aux ombres du soir,
Dans nos moments d’angoisse, au sein de nos déboires,
À toute heure, en tous lieux,
En toutes circonstances tu brilles sous nos yeux.
Musique de nos joies!
Musique de nos pleurs!
Que serions-nous sans toi?
Tu es notre Bonheur.
Par ta douce clarté ranime notre monde;
Remplis-nous à jamais d’une bonté profonde.
Que les hommes, tous en chœur, chantent tes mélodies,
Pour que notre univers devienne symphonie.
Musique, nous t’aimons, ranime notre monde.

English Poetic Translation:
Music
Loyal companion, expression of our souls,
Music, we love you, rekindle our flame...
You are the life, you are the light;
You are the flame that enlightens.
From the rising of the sun till the evening shadows,
Throughout our anguishes, within our sorrows,
At all hours, in all places,
In all circumstances you sparkle under our eyes.
Music of our joys!
Music of our cries!
What would we be without you?
You are our Gladness.
By your sweet clarity, reanimate our world;
Forever fill us with a profound kindness.
For all men, in chorus, sing your melodies,
So that our universe becomes a symphony.
Music, we love you, reanimate our world.
