The Chant du Départ (French for "Song of the Departure") is a revolutionary and war song written by Étienne Nicolas Méhul (music) and Marie-Joseph Chénier
(words) in 1794.The song was nicknamed "the brother of the Marseillaise" by Republican soldiers. It was presented to Maximilien Robespierre, who called it
"magnificent and republican poetry way beyond anything ever made by the Girondin Chénier.The song was first performed by the orchestra and choirs of the
Music academy on 14 July 1794. 17,000 copies of the music sheets were immediately printed and distributed in the 14 Armies of the Republic. Its original
title was Anthem to Liberty; it was changed to its present title by Robespierre.

The Chant du Départ:
La victoire en chantant
Nous ouvre la barrière.
La Liberté guide nos pas.
Et du Nord au Midi
La trompette guerrière
A sonné l'heure des combats.
Le Peuple souverain s'avance,
Tyrans descendez au cercueil.
La République nous appelle
Le Peuple souverain s'avance,
Tyrans descendez au cercueil.
Le Peuple souverain s'avance,
Tyrans descendez au cercueil.
La République nous appelle
Le Peuple souverain s'avance,
Tyrans descendez au cercueil.
La République nous appelle
---------------------
Song of the Departure:
Victory singing
Opens for us the gates
Liberty guides our steps
And from the North to the South
The war trumpet
Signals the hour of the fight
The sovereign People comes forth
Tyrants go down to your graves
The Republic is calling us
The sovereign People comes forth
Tyrants go down to your graves
The sovereign People comes forth
Tyrants go down to your graves
The Republic is calling us
The sovereign People comes forth
Tyrants go down to your graves
The Republic is calling us
