My Land Lyrics

My land lives in fairly new times

And in peace among its friends, here deep in Europe's heart

My land joined the wise and smart ways

By which humanity will free from all its hurt

My land shows me all its beauty

In the fields and in the forests of its greatest pride

My land sired boldest novelty

And often shared rich progress with the world so wide

My land brought far too much sadness

But found ways back after hardest agony

My land crushed its stony fortress

And so finally saw happy unity

Yes, my land stands for law and wisdom

Let us strive for this, so brotherly, with heart and hand

My land is the land of freedom

And so will always be our German, our united fatherland
