VIVE L’ÉTAT
VIVE LA NATION
VIVE LA RÉPUBLIQUE
_________________________________
One year of our sublime Republic complete,
and our Nation benifits from a deep, scarlet-coloured happiness,
of a gracefully ambiguous, third-person sort.
Long live our benevolent Prime-Minister,
Long live our illustrious Ministries,
Long live our noble Citizenry,
Long live the Republic.
