Chant de Marche : Sapeurs, mineurs et bâtisseurs

1er couplet

Sixième étranger d’infanterie.
 Nous sommes tous les héritiers.
 Syrie, Liban et Tunisie
 Partout les combats sans pitié
 Par le sang versé
 Rendirent gloire.
 Au vieux régiment du levant.
 De nos anciens chantons la gloire
 Et reprenons d’un même élan.

Refrain
Sapeurs, mineurs et bâtisseurs
À l’assaut légionnaire du Six
Et de la force des vainqueurs
Portons très haut notre devise
Parfois détruire.
Souvent construire.
Toujours servir avec Honneur et Fidélité.

2e couplet

Sixième étranger de génie Légion,
Dans les combats les plus violents,
En première ligne nous serons mis,
Comme les Pionniers en défilant.
Et pour la gloire de la Légion
Nous remplirons avec ardeur,
Dans le respect des traditions

Notre mission de constructeurs.
