Grandfather's song
Sister Renata Hampel is the author of the Sudeten German grandfather song ( Bruntál ):
- In the kingdom of old father and his dwarfs, in the kingdom of the green, wooded mountains, from where I was driven out into the world, there is my home, there I am at home.
- On old-father's heights, in the defiant tower, I liked to listen to the roaring storm; he sang me a mighty German song that still travels with me today.
- Zum Heidebrünnel with its chapel; to the rushing Tess and the Oppa spring, which hurry lively and quickly down to the valley - I would like to go there again.
Refrain: Green from the forest rustling ribbon, God greet you home, old fatherland. Greened by the rushing band of forests. God greet you home, old fatherland.
