lyrics

I höstens brinnande färger
Nordöst marscherar en frankisk här
Bärandes en flamma av guld
Ska de rasera vårt hem och vår tro

Hans svärd och hans spira ska bringa svaret på
Hans dröm om att bli konungars konung

Irminsûl, nu sjunger vi kvädet
Blodstänkt jord, kring det heliga trädet
Världars mord, de fällde vår frihet
Bränt vår tro, men tar aldrig vår stolthet

Trädens kronor brinner och
Westfalen har fallit i lågor
Men från döden skall en
Vit hingst resa sig igen

Hans svärd och hans spira ska bringa svaret på
Hans dröm om att bli konungars konung

Irminsûl, nu sjunger vi kvädet
Blodstänkt jord, kring det heliga trädet
Världars mord, de fällde vår frihet
Bränt vår tro, men tar aldrig vår stolthet

Hemsökt flammar himlen, borta med vinden, förbi är vår tid
Gamla gudars skymning, en flod utan mynning, men ej slut på vår strid
Sjung nu sorgens sånger, fyllda med ånger, vi gräms det ikväll
Fäll då tyngdens tårar, av gångna vårar, sen begrav dem med eld

English:
In the burning colors of autumn
Northeast marches the Frankish force
Flying the flame of gold
They will destroy our home and faith

His sword and his spire will
Answer his prayers to become
King of kings

Irminsûl! we sing the song of
Bloodsoaked earth, around the holy tree
Murder of worlds, they felled our freedom
Burned our faith, but they will never take our pride

The treetops are aflame
Westfalen is burning
But a white steed
shall rise from the dead

His sword and his spire will
Answer his prayers to become
King of kings

Irminsûl! we sing the song of
Bloodsoaked earth, around the holy tree
Murder of worlds, they felled our freedom
Burned our faith, but they will never take our pride

Afflicted, the sky is like embers
Gone with the wind, our time has passed
Twilight of old gods
A river without end, but not without fight
Sing now songs of sorrow,
Filled with regret, we will grieve tonight
Then cry tears of heaviness
Remember the springs of past
And bury your sorrow with fire
