Ich Hatt Einen Kameraden
Ludwig Uhland
I Had a Comrade
I had a comrade
You won't find a better one
The drum beat for battle
He walked by my side
In the same step and pace
In the same step and pace
The drum beat for battle
He walked by my side
In the same step and pace
In the same step and pace
A bullet came flying
Is it meant for me or for you?
It tore him away
He lies at my feet
As if he were a part of me
As if he were a part of me
It tore him away
He lies at my feet
As if he were a part of me
As if he were a part of me
He still wants to shake my hand
While I'm loading my gun
I can't shake your hand
Stay in eternal life
My good comrade!
My good comrade!
I can't shake your hand
Stay in eternal life
My good comrade!
My good comrade!
