Verschwunden sind die Schmerzen,
Weil aus beklemmten Herzen
Kein Seufzer widerhallt.
Drum jubelt hoch, ihr Deutsche,
Denn die verruchte Peitsche
Hat endlich ausgeknallt.

De pijnen zijn verdwenen,
Geen mens hoeft nog te wenen,
Het zuchten is gestaakt.
Dus jubel luid, gij Duitsers,
Want de vervloekte kluisters
Zijn eindelijk geslaakt.

John Reed (The Schubert song companion) schrijft over dit lied: "The
battle celebrated in these unsophisticated verses -- which may be by
Schubert himself -- is that fought at Leipzig on 16-19 October
1813. Here Napoleon was totally defeated by the Austrian and Prussian
forces ranged against him, and the battle marked the end of his
European empire. It raised patriotic feeling in the German lands to an
unprecedented height."
