(Verse 1) By the shimmering edge of Lake Léman, Where the Rhône flows, singing its anthem, Celtic roots blossomed and thrived, Geneva was born, vibrant, alive. (Chorus) Oh, Geneva, you radiant city, You bear history’s luminous legacy, Through time and tides, you stand so grand, A beacon for the world’s vast land. (Verse 2) Roman roads, bishops’ reigns, Fairs and faith beneath Alpine chains, Wealth came from near and far to shine, Geneva glowed, a witness divine. (Chorus) Oh, Geneva, you radiant city, You bear history’s luminous legacy, Through time and tides, you stand so grand, A beacon for the world’s vast land. (Verse 3) Calvin brought his sacred flame, Souls and dreams to God’s acclaim, The Escalade, valiant and proud, Kept freedom safe, unbowed, unbowed. (Chorus) Oh, Geneva, you radiant city, You bear history’s luminous legacy, Through time and tides, you stand so grand, A beacon for the world’s vast land. (Verse 4) Dunant gave peace to every nation, Red Cross born from deep compassion, United Nations on neutral ground, Geneva speaks, its echo resounds. (Chorus) Oh, Geneva, you radiant city, You bear history’s luminous legacy, Through time and tides, you stand so grand, A beacon for the world’s vast land. (Verse 5) CERN seeks the heavens’ trace, Watchmakers weave the time we face, Languages dance in every street, Geneva pulses, where worlds meet. (Chorus) Oh, Geneva, you radiant city, You bear history’s luminous legacy, Through time and tides, you stand so grand, A beacon for the world’s vast land. (Outro) O Geneva, ever true, Your song resounds through time and tide anew.
