For God, Emperor And Fatherland

Marching off to war

Students and children we are

Fighting to the final breath

Conscripted to death

In the war

World war

War

Trench war

Industrialized

Mechanized

Genocide

Whole generation in the front line dying

Mass murder, the wounded crying

The signal – out of the trench

Few hundred years in blood drenched

Industrialized

Mechanized

Genocide

Crippled for god emperor and fatherland

Coming home with only one hand

Your legs are splattered, spine is broken

It's an honour to be one of the emperors chosen

Machinegun rips us apart

Then bloodshed with the bayonet

Gas attack we are the cannon fodder

With our bodies feeding the meat hammer

In the war

World war

War

Trench war

Dying...

Pro patria mori
