歌詞

This god on the banners of his armies which are ready to die He's hidden in the dark for so long He's the father of all the tribes that risen from blood and soil And were born here to stay With his lightning's eternal protection our nation exists Our way still leads towards him He executes cruel justice for betrayal of his law Towards him we hail I've got to protect my faith to survive I've got to fight till the end of my strength I've got to belief in our sacred world I've got to stand strong in our battle for blood I've got to create, to be best as I can I've got to destroy what ruins my land I've got to fight till the end of my strength I've got to protect my faith to survive This god on the banners of his armies, he's got not only one face And his power is in the steel of our swords He's an oak as old as the sky where our battle cries run Like the soil he protects our being He brings death wherever our swords have to win He allows us to conquer this His anger is a weapon, thunder strike In revenge thrown down to destroy
