This song was so good it was used by both Allies and axis. Considering it was WW2, the most brutal conflict in history, that is just INCREDIBLE.

[@narvinn]

There is a good WW2 canteen song called "The D-day Dodgers" too. The music is very similar to "Lili marleen"

[@lux_vita_caritas]

I love this old version, it's really beautiful❤🇩🇪

[@mr.e2962]

I agree, the original is both beautiful yet sad.

[@cortexradio]

I honestly thought this was from HOI4, didn't expect it to be a real song. Although if I'm correct its from WW1

[@SwePol]

That is correct, the lyrics were written in 1915.

[@animacionesesteban8963]

Correction: The lyrics we're written by a German solider as a poem in 1915, then, in 1937 the poem was published, and a compositor realized it could be a good song, so he made the song in 1940 and soon became popular

[@Historywithmaps1939]

It is one of the most famous songs of ww2, other than vie en rose

This isn’t a WW2 song, the lyrics were written in 1915.

[@Nigg0]

And it gained worldwide popularity during ww2. Soldiers on both sides listened to this.

[@SwePol]

@@Nigg0 doesn’t change the fact that it was written during WW1.

[@user-mf4gu6zv6p]

the song wasnt made until 1940

[@SwePol]

@@user-mf4gu6zv6p blatantly false, the lyrics were written in 1915 by Hans Leip, published in 1937, set to music in 1938 and the first recording was made in 1939.

I wish you had posted it two years ago

[@SwePol]

Why just two years ago?

[@-omarpasa7022]

@@SwePol Because I had made a video about it and posted it on Telegram, but this version is much better

[@Tomungru]

Same tune as D-Day dodgers, interesting.

[@threestrikesmarxman9095]

D-Day Dodgers is a parody of Lili Marleen.

[@vicenteromerovega1480]

I love that song but I prefer the Chilean version 🇨🇱❤️🇩🇪
