Let us sing together, friends,
Let us celebrate our joy,
Neither river, nor the mountains
No more borders, ne'er again.

Oh, Europa, our own home,
You were divided far too long,
Let your beauty now shine forth,
From you only all have come.

Your flag now unites as brothers
Those whom war did once divide,
Your own law now brings together
Citizens in full consent.
Throughout Europe's Continent
People now are on the march,
A new feeling guides them onward,
Determination to unite.

Under the shield of the law
We will live in harmony,
Thus our oath, that's what we swear,
One country and one destiny.

There's example for the world,
There's direction, there's the way,
The whole human race and people
Dwell in peace now, and in joy.
