The Lebanese National Anthem (Arabic: النشيد الوطني اللبناني, an-Našīd al-Waṭanī al-Lubnānī), officially known as "Koullouna lilouaṭaan lil oula lil alam", was written by Rashid Nakhle and composed by Wadih Sabra.

It was adopted on 12 July 1927, seven years after the proclamation of the state of Greater Lebanon during the French mandate.

The music of the national anthem is influenced by Beirut's exposure to Western culture by the end of the 19th century.

[1] Rasha Al Karam of Al Jadid TV aired a mini-documentary about the Lebanese National Anthem, claiming that the music originated from a song dedicated to Abd el-Krim, President of the Republic of the Rif, and composed by Lebanese Mohammed Flayfel.

Our plain and mountain – a breeding ground of men, Our speech and work – in the manner of perfection.

Our elder and youth – in reach of the voice of the homeland, A lion of jungles when we rushed into the wars.

Our East's heart – forever Lebanon, Protected by the Lord for the duration of time.

Que Dieu le préserve jusqu'à la fin des temps.

Son nom est sa gloire depuis le début des temps.

Our Elders and our children, they await our Country's call, And on the Day of Crisis they are as Lions of the Jungle.
