Our translations: ENG FRE
In der Heimath ist es schön
Auf der Berge lichten Höh'n,
Auf den schroffen Felsenpfaden,
Auf der Fluren grünen Saaten,
Wo die Heerden weidend gehn,
In der Heimath ist es schön!
In der Heimath ist es schön
Wo die Lüfte sanfter weh'n,
Wo des Baches Silberwelle
Murmelnd eilt von Stell' zu Stelle,
Wo der Eltern Häuser stehn
In der Heimath ist es schön!
In der Heimath ist es schön
Wo ich Sie zuerst geseh'n,
Wo mein Herz Sie hat gefunden
Ewig sich mit Ihr verbunden,
Dort werd' ich Sie wiederseh'n,
In der Heimath ist es schön!

It is lovely in my homeland
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
It is lovely in my homeland,
Upon the bright heights of the mountains,
Upon the rugged rocky paths,
Upon the green sown meadows,
Where the herds go a-grazing.
It is lovely in my homeland!
It is lovely in my homeland,
Where the breezes blow more gently,
Where the silver wave of the brook
Hastens, murmuring, from place to place,
Where the houses of our parents stand;
It is lovely in my homeland!
It is lovely in my homeland,
Where I first saw her,
Where my heart found her
And bound itself to her eternally.
There I shall see her again.
It is lovely in my homeland!
