Germany, Germany above everything,
 Above everything in the world,
 When, for protection and defence, it always
 takes a brotherly stand together.
 From the Meuse to the Memel,
 From the Adige to the Belt,
  Germany, Germany above everything,
  Above everything in the world!

German women, German loyalty,
 German wine and German song
 Shall retain in the world
 Their old beautiful chime
 And inspire us to noble deeds
 During all of our life.
 German women, German loyalty,
 German wine and German song! 

Unity and justice and freedom
 For the German fatherland!
 For these let us all strive
 Brotherly with heart and hand!
 Unity and justice and freedom
 Are the pledge of fortune;
  Flourish in this fortune's blessing,
  Flourish, German fatherland
