Lyrics
- Lil din l-art ħelwa, l-Omm li tatna isimha,
- Ħares, Mulej, kif dejjem Int ħarist:
- Ftakar li lilha bl-oħla dawl libbist.
- Agħti, kbir Alla, id-dehen lil min jaħkimha,
- Rodd il-ħniena lis-sid, saħħa 'l-ħaddiem:
- Seddaq il-għaqda fil-Maltin u s-sliem.
Lyrics of L-Innu Malti, translated to English:
- Guard her, O Lord, as ever Thou hast guarded!
- This Motherland so dear whose name we bear!
- Keep her in mind, whom Thou hast made so fair!
- May he who rules, for wisdom be regarded!
- In master mercy, strength in man increase!
- Confirm us all, in unity and peace!
Paroles de L'hymne Maltais en Français: (Traduit littéralement du Maltais)
- A cette douce terre, la mère qui nous a donné son nom,
- Protège la, seigneur, comme tu as toujours fait;
- Rappelle toi que tu l'a embellie avec la plus haute grâce.
- Accordez mon Dieu, de la sagesse à ceux qui la gouvernent;
- Rendez l'indulgence aux maîtres, et la force aux travailleurs;
- Assurez l'unité entre les Maltais et la paix.
