Here are the lyrics:
The song of Cézembre
Oh dear Cézembre, oh holy land of freedom,
For Thee our hand, for Thee our heart!
For Thee our blood, oh dearest homeland,
We swear to you, oh Cézembre!
You went through troubles, our dearest land,
And we have helped Thee through!
Henceforth, your people will keep singing:
The Law, the King and Freedom high! (2x)
The Law, the King and Freedom high,
the Law, the King and Freedom high!

Some parts were translated from the German version of La Brabançonne (Die Brabançonne/Das Lied von Brabant)** and the Dutch (Flemish) version of the anthem (De Brabançonne)*, some I did myself***. What do you guys think? What do you Mr Sénéschal @þerxh Sant-Enogat think?
* = First line is from the Flemish version which goes like this: "O dierbaar België, o heilig land der Vaad'ren". I translated and adapted it to be "Oh dear Cézembre, oh holy land of freedom"
** = Lines 2, 3 (adapted) and 4 (adapted) are from the German version, translated. That includes lines 7 (adapted) and 8 (adapted as well)
*** = The parts I wrote myself are lines 5 and 6

[...] oh holy land of freedom [...] - This is the full name of Cézembre being referenced (Provinçù Soveran da Cézembre/Sovereign Province of Cézembre)
You went through troubles, our dearest land [...] - This is Cézembre being referenced when France attempted to claim it back and being reclaimed by King Robert I
[...] The Law, the King and Freedom high! [...] - Decided to reference HM King John because Cézembre is a beautiful looking (from photos) province of Talossa and HM King John is the King

Who's willing to translate the lyrics to Talossan and adapt them accordingly?

Considering French is also spoken on Cézembre, we could have the anthem translated to French as well.

Thanks Barclamïu for the proposal ! and the nice lyrics too.
After a few days now, I wonder if it is a good idea to base our Provincial anthem on the national anthem of another country, and Belgium has no real logical link with Talossa or Cézembre. The French anthem would be a bit more logical geographically speaking, but it is the anthem of the country from which Cézembre seceeded on 1982.
Could we imagine another music ? more related to Brittany, such as in this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9mup3aA08Y
All suggestions welcome !

I took inspiration from Vuode, their anthem has the melody of La Marseillaise, so I don't see why ours can't have the melody of another anthem. It also used to happen with other countries.
In my opinion, the anthem itself is beautiful, and has links to the monarch.

@þerxh Sant-Enogat I really don't see a problem that if our province were to have an anthem that it would base on a country's anthem. Atatürk uses Türkiye's anthem and Vuode has its own words but sung to the tune of the French anthem. So, I don't see a problem with our anthem having the melody of Belgium's anthem. In real life, countries used to use melodies of other countries for their anthems. Some even made melodies basing on a country's anthem (for example, Yugoslavia's anthem melody after 1945 was basing on the Polish anthem).

Fiovă's national anthem will be sung to this tune, if we ever get around to writing words

Yes, but Türkiye's anthem is logical for Atatürk.. As Il Canto Degli Italiani could be Benito's for the same reason. And.. you know.. French are always making jokes on Belgian natives :-) 
La Brabançonne is a nice anthem but would ring immediately Belgian for people in the Cézembre region.

The lyrics of Vuode's provincial anthem uphold the supposed virtues of Robert Ben Madison (who, at the time of the writing, was no longer king (between his first and second reigns) but serving as Premier of Vuode) against the republicanism of Dan Lorentz and Bob Murphy. Oddly, the music is set to La Marseillaise.

We should probably get around to changing it.

To be honest, I'm kinda glad that Maritiimi-Maxhestic doesn't have an anthem to replace. Knowing what Ian von Metairia was into back then, this could've ended horrendously...

I'll just compose my own music then.
