Original lyrics
Das Ostpreußenlied (East Prussia)
Land der dunklen Wälder
und kristall'nen Seen,
über weite Felder
lichte Wunder geh'n.
Starke Bauern schreiten
hinter Pferd und Pflug,
über Ackerbreiten
streift der Vogelzug.
Und die Meere rauschen
den Choral der Zeit,
Elche steh'n und lauschen
in die Ewigkeit.
Tag ist aufgegangen
über Haff und Moor,
Licht hat angefangen,
steigt im Ost empor.

Translation
The Lay of East Prussia
Land of somber forests
And cristal clear lakes
'Cross wide open plains
Vivid wonders occcur
Strong Plowmen are striding
Behind Horse and Plow
All across the farmland
The migratory birds fly
And the seas are roaring
To the choral of time
Elks they stand and listen
To the sound of eternity
The day has broken
Across lagoon and moor
The Light has risen
Climbing up in the East

His brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all
who play stringed instruments and pipes. (Genesis 4:21)
