by Paul Fournier (1853 - 1935)

Honneur à l'Amérique
Language: French (Français) 
Salut à la noble Amérique,
Au peuple avec nous combattant !
Honneur à son geste héroïque
Et serrons la main qu'il nous tend.
Comme aux grands jours de notre Histoire,
Que soient liés nos deux pays,
Et contre les Boches maudits
Marchons ensemble à la victoire !
Sous les drapeaux d'Amérique et de France,
Toujours unis par la Fraternité,
Nous combattrons pour notre délivrance,
Pour la Justice et pour la Liberté.
