Raubritter [English translation]

From the fortress booms a man’s coarse voice

Sung by raspy throat, brightly the glasses clink

Dominating this territory, proudly singing their song

Robber baron, robber baron, how far does our country go?!

Robber baron, robber baron, how firm is our hand1??!

In our time of bondage we took up arms

Defeated our Lords, Counts and clerics too

Dominating this territory, proudly singing their song

Robber baron, robber baron, how far does our country go?!

Robber baron, robber baron, how firm is our hand??!

Great is our power, as long as we’re united

We keep watch over our castle, defy every enemy

Dominating this territory, proudly singing their song

Robber baron, robber baron, how far does our country go?!

Robber baron, robber baron, how firm is our hand??!

1. Literally 'how strong is our hand' but in German you'd say someone has a strong hand while in English you'd say someone has a firm hand.
