Chor
Heil unsern Enkeln, sie werden schauen,
was der prophetische Geist erkannt!
Es wird ihr kindliches Vertrauen
der Krone schönster Diamant!
Wohltaten spendend, täglich neue,
vergilt der König in ferner Zeit,
die unwandelbare Treue,
die sein Volk ihm dankbar weiht!

Closing Chorus
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch)
Chorus
Hail to our progeny, they will learn
what the prophetic spirit has revealed!
Their childlike trust [in the King] will be
the crown’s most beautiful diamond!
Excellent administration, undertaken daily,
will be accomplished by the King in the distant future,
With unwavering loyalty,
his people ordain him in thanks!
