Alma mater tubingensis
Alma mater tubingensis is a student song that praises the university city of Tübingen . The text comes from Ernst Diestel , a member of the Tübingen fraternity Derendingia . It is sung to the tune of the streams, you multitudes .
Diestel wrote the song Alma mater tubingensis in the summer semester of 1881 as the federal song of Derendingia. However, the song found its way into the General German Kommersbuch and was also very popular with the other Tübingen corporations , so that this song developed into the most famous Tübingen student song and the popular hymn of the university city of Tübingen.
text
Others may praise others than the ornament of the cities of the Muses,
Alma Mater Tubingensis, our praise ring out to you!
Between fruit and vineyards as beautiful as a bride she lies,
intoxicatingly lovingly at her feet, the Neckar hugs her feet .
Your mountains in the blue expanse awaken German wanderlust.
Greetings from God! you Schwäbsche Alpe , longing of the student breast.
The Black Forest is also not far away, alluring with its dark fir,
Black Forest girl's eye stars attract students' hearts.
And the castle at a proud height, resplendent in the glory of the Flor,
which the strong Prussian eagle chose for its ancestral seat .
Close by and in the distance lovingly like a father's house,
Alma Mater Tubingensis, you exercise your magic.
