National Anthem of Wallonia (Belgium) - Le chant des Wallons (Li Tchant des Walons)

"Le Chant des Wallons" (Li Tchant des Walons in Walloon, The Song of the Walloons in English) is the anthem of Wallonia, a region of Belgium. The original words, written in Walloon by Théophile Bovy in 1900, were in 1901 set to music composed by Louis Hillier. Performed for the first time in the city of Liège, the song quickly spread to other parts of French-speaking Belgium and established itself like a "national" anthem for Wallonia. When, on 15 July 1998, the Walloon Parliament approved a law defining the official symbols of the Walloon Region (a flag, anthem, and holiday), it was a French version of Li Tchant des Walons that was chosen. However, the lyrics adopted on that occasion are not a direct translation of the original: the number and order of verses differ, and they diverge significantly from the original Walloon text in places.
