Fackelzug

In line and order, they march into the city
Brightening all the streets with their bright torchlight
Standard bearers proudly hold the sun wheel up
And a comrade steps out from the ranks, from the ranks

"Burn, torch! Shine, flame! Go from hand to hand
Carry the faith, carry the loyalty further through the land"
Burn, torch! Shine, flame! Go from hand to hand
Carry the faith, carry the loyalty further through the land
Father, pass it on to your son, mother to your maiden
So that faith and loyalty shine through time
Shine through time!

And in the pale torchlight in deep, dark night
In a calm position, the fallen are remembered
They stand with them in line and fight side by side
With the comrades of a new golden era

Burn, torch! Shine, flame! Go from hand to hand
Carry the faith, carry the loyalty further through the land
Father, pass it on to your son, mother to your maiden
So that faith and loyalty shine through time!

From the cloud cover, thunderous roars loudly rise
The hammer consecrates the sons of Germania and their tough path
That from now on and forevermore, a courageous lineage
Defies the enemies in fire and in bloody battle

Burn, torch! Shine, flame! Go from hand to hand
Carry the faith, carry the loyalty further through the land
Father, pass it on to your son, mother to your maiden
So that faith and loyalty shine through time
Shine through time!
