Stosst an! Free speech! live it! Hurrah, hoch!
He who knows the truth yet dare it not speak,
Despised for ever remain the sneak. Free is the Bursch!
Stosst an! Bravery, live it! Hurrah, hoch!
He who counts the cost ere the battle hour,
Will basely stoop to the hand of power.
Free is the Bursch!
Stosst an! Burschen-weal, live thou! Hurrah, hoch!
Till the world is consumed on the judgment-day,
Be true, ye Burschen, and sing for aye--
