from Volkslieder (Folksongs)
Translation by Wilhelm Henzen (1850 - 1910)

Fahne geschwungen
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Norwegian (Bokmål) 
Fahne geschwungen!
Vorwärts gedrungen!
Warm sind die Herzen und kraftvoll die Hand.
Auf, immer rege
bahnt neue Wege!
Siegreiche Sache setzt uns in Brand.

Einig geweihet
steh'n wir gereihet
alle zum Kampf für Freiheit und Recht.
Geister entschweben,
Herzen erbeben,
Es kommt das neue, stärk're Geschlecht!
