Auferstanden aus Ruinen und der Zukunft zugewandt,
laß uns Dir zum Guten dienen, Deutschland, einig Vaterland.

denn es muß uns doch gelingen, daß die Sonne schön wie nie
über Deutschland scheint. (''bis'')

Glück und Friede sei beschieden Deutschland, unserm Vaterland.
Alle Welt sehnt sich nach Frieden, reicht den Völkern eure Hand.
Wenn wir brüderlich uns einen, schlagen wir des Volkes Feind!
Laßt das Licht des Friedens scheinen, daß nie eine Mutter mehr
ihren Sohn beweint. (''bis'')

Laßt uns pflügen, laßt uns bauen, lernt und schafft wie nie zuvor,
und der eignen Kraft vertrauend, steigt ein frei Geschlecht empor.
Deutsche Jugend, bestes Streben unsres Volks in dir vereint,
wirst du Deutschlands neues Leben. Und die Sonne schön wie nie
über Deutschland scheint. (''bis'')

Risen from the ruins and turned toward the future,
Let us serve you for the greater good, Germany, united Fatherland.
Our task is to defeat old woes, and we shall defeat them together,
Because we must succeed so that the sun, more beautifully than ever before,
Shines over Germany. (''bis'')

May fortune and peace be granted to Germany, our Fatherland.

Mourns her son. (''bis'')

Shines over Germany. (''bis'')
