Fallersleben, August Heinrich Hoffmann from
It's evening again: / over forest and field / whispers peace / and the world is at rest!
All the birds are already there / All the birds, all!
When our pug was a little pug, he could be friendly, / now he growls every day and also barks
The biggest scoundrel in the whole country / That is and remains the informer
A little man stands in the forest / very still and dumb, / he has a purple mane on
Unity and justice and freedom / For the German fatherland - / Let us all strive for that / Brotherly with heart and hand!
Cuckoo, cuckoo, calls from the forest
With a poisonous wife is tormented for life / Whoever chooses a wife because of the dowry / For poison remains poison of whatever kind / And such a marriage is poison mixing
Santa Claus is coming tomorrow, / Comes with his gifts
O, how cold it has become
It doesn't work without peace / Peace is the first civic duty: / Anyone who surrenders to this duty / Can live with us without any worries
