- Peuple d'Afrique,
- Le Passé historique !
- Que chante l'hymne de la Guinée fière et jeune
- Illustre épopée de nos frères
- Morts au champ d'honneur en libérant l'Afrique !
- Le peuple de Guinée prêchant l'unité
- Appelle l'Afrique.
- Liberté! C'est la voix d'un peuple
- Qui appelle tous ses frères à se retrouver.
- Liberté! C'est la voix d'un peuple
- Qui appelle tous ses frères de la grande Afrique.
- Bâtissons l'unité africaine dans l'indépendance retrouvée.
