Tremblez, tyrans et vous perfides
L'opprobre de tous les partis
Tremblez ! vos projets parricides
Vont enfin recevoir leurs prix !
Tout est soldat pour vous combattre
S'ils tombent, nos jeunes héros,
La terre en produit de nouveaux,
Contre vous tout prêts à se battre !

We thank the French people for holding up and respecting the plebiscite. We eagerly await the reunification with our brothers from the Saarland and will make a warm welcome at May 1st. For the celebrations in Saarbrücken we invite President de Gaulle to celebrate with us.
