text
- This song goes to all hearts that glow
for Harz and Fläming ,
the Elbe should also be home to us,
Saxony-Anhalt proud and bold. - Whether the seeds grow green in the Bördeland
and the Saale cherries bloom,
that is also in our own hands,
Saxony-Anhalt proud and bold. - If we now want to build a home,
we have to make an effort,
a good home without a fence,
Saxony-Anhalt proud and bold. - That wine flourishes in the Unstruttal
and the forests are green,
that hope gives us strength, that
Saxony-Anhalt is proud and bold.
