Took my first steps, and father held my hand, 
Took my first steps, on my way to be a man! 
Throughout this soil, with my first pair of shoes, 
Throughout this soil, that I never want to loose! 
My life is here, and here I wish to die, 
This the place my fatherland! 
My life is here, and here I wish to die, 
This the place my fatherland! 
Saw a face of an old dying man, 
Learned to listen, to love my fatherland! 
Life's a rumble, in sunshine, or in rain, 
Whatever frozen, spring gives life again! 
My life is here, and here I wish to die, 
This the place my fatherland! 
My life is here, and here I wish to die, 
This the place my fatherland! 
Flight of eagles, my freedom is to see, 
Things I love, I want to render scenes! 
Lakes that glitter, shores of peaceful sea, 
This the legacy by fathers brought to me!
My life is here, and here I wish to die, 
This the place my fatherland! 
My life is here, and here I wish to die, 
This the place my fatherland!
