To the tune of the ODE TO JOY!
Freude, schoner Gotterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium,
Wir betreten feuer-trunken
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum!
Deine Zauber binden wieder
Was die Mode streng geteilt
Alle Menschen werden Bruder,
Wo dein sanfter Flugel weilt!
Joy, thou source of light immortal
Daughter of Elysium
touched with fire, to the portal
of they radiant shrine we come!
Thy pure magic frees all others
held in custom's rigid rings;
men throughout the world are brothers
in the haven of thy wings!!
