“Festen Muth in schwerem Leiden,
Hülfe, wo die Unschuld weint,
Ewigkeit geschwor’nen Eiden,
Wahrheit gegen Freund und Feind,
Männerstolz vor Königsthronen, –
Brüder, gält es Gut und Blut –
Dem Verdienste seine Kronen,
Untergang der Lügenbrut!”

“Chanter
Le monde entier
Le Standard
Oui oui oui

Allons les rouges

Allons les rouges et blancs.”

Or out of doors to play.
And all the other little boys
Passed our way."
