The Peat-Bog Soldiers (Moorsoldaten) |
Far and wide as the eye can wander |
Heath and bog are everywhere |
Not a bird sings out to cheer us |
Oaks are standing gaunt and bare |
We are the peat bog soldiers |
Marching with our spades to the moor |
We are the peat bog soldiers |
Marching with our spades to the moor |
Up and down the guards are marching |
No one, no one can get through |
Flight would mean a sure death facing |
Guns and barbed wire block our view |
We are the peat bog soldiers |
Marching with our spades to the moor |
We are the peat bog soldiers |
Marching with our spades to the moor |
But for us there is no complaining |
Winter will in time be past |
One day we shall rise rejoicing |
Homeland, dear, you’re mine at last |
No more the peat bog soldiers |
Will march with our spades to the moor |
No more the peat bog soldiers |
Will march with our spades to the moor |
