by Friedrich Konrad Müller von der Werra (1823 - 1881)

Vorwärts! ihr deutschen Söhne
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Vorwärts!  ihr deutschen Söhne,
Zum Kampf auf's Schlachtenfeld!  
Daß euch die Freiheit kröne 
Und Jeder werd' ein Held! 
Wir wollen muthig straiten,
Daß wir nicht untergehn,
Und treu in bösen Zeiten
Zur alten Fahne stehn! 
Vorwärts!
