We (1848)

1848 people addressed it to the king
„End the serious, imperious
Regency that’s fearing us“

Thus the passing bells were tolling
for an everybody’s soul
254 – can’t take no more
but 40.000 stood brave for

This fail, tonight
We all were at liberty – to bail for rights
We were brave while bombard’s burst was hailing skies
We were always young, we were the youth!
We had no choice, this time!

From the Baltic Sea to the Black Forest
One could hear
From Pomerania to the Alps
For the very time in German history

People had a vote on whom
To represent them and to build
A National Assembly at their will

This fail, tonight
We all were at liberty – to bail for rights
We were brave while bombard’s burst was hailing skies
We were always young, we were the youth!
We had no choice, this time!

This fail, tonight
We all were at liberty – to bail for rights
We were brave while bombard’s burst was hailing skies
We were always young, we were the youth!
We had no choice, this time!
this time!
this time!
