Hymn

Composer: Herman Grote, 1934 Songwriter: Herman Grote, 1934
Songtext:

The song of Lower Saxony

From the Weser to the Elbe, from the Harz to the sea,

stand the sons of Lower Saxony, a firm castle and fortress.

Firm as our oaks we withstand all time,

when storms roar over the German fatherland.

We are the Lower Saxons, storm-proof and earthy,

Hail Duke Widukind tribe.

Where did the Roman henchmen fall? Where did the Welsh brood sink?

In Lower Saxony's mountains, in Lower Saxony's fury.

Who threw down the Roman eagle in the sand?

Who held freedom high in the German fatherland?

That was the Lower Saxons, stubborn and earthy,

Hail Duke Widukind tribe.

Many thousands of men once died on the blooming red heath,

For Lower Saxony's loyalty the Franks banned them.

Many thousand brothers fell from the executioner's hand,

Many thousand brothers for their Lower Saxony land.

That was the Lower Saxons, stubborn and earthy,

Hail Duke Widukind tribe.

From the fathers' blood and wounds the sons' heroism grows.

Lower Saxony shall bear witness: For freedom, good and blood!

Firm as our oaks we withstand all time,

When storms roar over the German fatherland.

We are the Lower Saxons, storm-proof and earthy,

Hail Duke Widukind tribe.
