It's funny how most nations anthem is about enemies blood, fighting for freedom etc. and in Swiss anthem there are morning skies, splendid Alps and God. So peaceful and celestial. I love it.
The old anthem we had actually was about war! But we changed it in 1961 i think, because it had the melody of god save the queen, but both anthems are good.
Real Translation: You appear in the morning alpine red glow I see you in the sea of rays You, the highly grand, glorious When the alpine sky glows red Pray, free Swiss, pray Because the godly soul knows Because the godly soul knows God in the noble fatherland God in the noble fatherland
Respect to Switzerland! Beautiful anthem and beautiful country! From your neighbor country (and in my case from thr other part of the Alps), Italy 🇮🇹🇨🇭
Yes, exactly, a prayer, love for the country, for the correct values in our lives. So much light and good feelings in the text. We can not say the same thing abt the US one..
@@teofannaI don't know about my country's anthem. "The Star Spangled Banner" was written by a white slave owner and I believe the 3rd stanza mentions about slavery and such. Also it sounds more like a drinking song than an anthem. Yes, I am proud to be American but I am not happy for my government. Also, the land of the free, isn't free anymore. Honestly, nothing is free anymore. And some American citizens, when it comes to freedom, they would try to do whatever they please, even if it is illegal and scary. So, to me it is safe to say America is never going to get better. 😒
I am Swiss myself, and i am so thankful to everybody saying how wonderful our country is. I musst admit, it's quiet hard For people to live Here. You pay alot and also, high fines For speeding and or breaking the law. I didn't Break the law. I am only 12. But i know where i live. Also the school System is good. They Always give you an Chance. Also i got support From My school. I am Bad in Maths, so they helped me There. Wonderful country! Thanks USA,Poland,Germany. (Sorry, couldn't get all countries.)
I am Swiss too, i was born in the UK and raised in Switzerland, anyway, I've got something for you Which you will like: ua-cam.com/video/VRuvXpKfNbA/v-deo.html
As a Swiss person myself I can agree except the school system. Maybe it's better now but back then when I used to go to school in Switzerland (I moved away to Sweden) it used to be terrible
The prettiest national anthem, ever. So peaceful. As is your country. If I had to choose a European country to live in, Switzerland would be my first choice. Love from America! 🇺🇸
Lovely country, great people, smart state organization, peace. Pure democracy and respect. I am proud and thankful to be part of it, to live and work here, to contribute with all I can to the well being of this country.
I hope Brazil and Switzerland become friends. I love this gorgeous people. What a reference of quality and freedom. Being a Swiss is proudly. From Brazil!
Heya, an Argentinian here. Still feel more swiss than anything. I really want to be a Swiss citizen but I don't have anything that can assure me the country's passport. I swear you guys I feel this anthem more than my country's.
A mí me pasa lo mismo amigo, tengo 18 y soy de Argentina pero de ascendencia suizo-alemana (italiana y española también). Lamentablemente no puedo pedir la ciudadanía por las leyes actuales. Por suerte soy ciudadano italiano y es un poco más fácil ir a vivir a Suiza. ¿Vos tenés alguna ciudadanía de la UE? Igualmente nadie nos quita nuestros orígenes suizos amigo, y podríamos ir cuando queramos o podamos, ¡saludos!

Nah they're not that bad, it's difficult to 1:1 German with English in the context of biblical vocabulary. The English language has simply a lot more words than German, and a lot more words that are synonymous with others. The translations provided aren't 1:1 at all, so I can understand why people are having problems - but they translate the actual meaning of the German perfectly into English. - A half Swiss, half English, Christian guy
First of all, where is the Biblical vocabulary? I don't think there is any. The mere appearance of the word "God" does not mean that a text uses a Biblical vocabulary. Furthermore, the fact that English has more words than German is totally irrelevant. If that does anything at all, it should actually facilitate translating. However, this English version of the Swiss national anthem does not translate the actual meaning of the German words. The concept of being free (freie Schweizer) is totally missing in the English version. Instead, the term "surrender" is used. This is absurd. Also, the term "pious soul" (fromme Seele) is not found in the English lyrics. It is clearly a bad translation.
XfuckingD no, the translation is bad. "betet, freie Schweizer, betet," (apparently) translated here as "pray to God, to Him surrender" is properly translated as "pray, Free Swiss, pray" if memory serves. Sure, it might SOUND better in verse when translated this way, but the point of putting the translation is for people to understand what's said... and the line they translate it as is, if memory serves, a proper translation for another line in a later part of the song.
I hosted an exchange student from the Canton of Graübunden in high school. That was almost 15 years ago and we are still dear friends. The alpine country will always be special to me because of this!
My sweetheart is Swiss, and whenever I slowly raise the window blinds I hum this lovely song. There are reasons for Swiss success: Hard work, thoughtful innovation, continuous improvement, self-reliance. I attribute this in part to historically them being isolated in deep valleys during long winters with only your near neighbours to assist you. They had to plan carefully and be disciplined. Swiss stuff works - it had to.
Asking someone on the internet to "not be rude" instead of asserting his own dominance. Hah! Switzerland is a country of strong religious belief. If you want to be atheistic, then go to the U.S. where people can practice whatever fancies there fetish. The anthems don't have to be religious, it's simply blatantly obvious that religion is the thing that held the commonwealth together during these thousands of years. It also instructed people upon the codes of morals and ethics. SO yeah, if you have a question, go to a cathedral in Switzerland and ask them why their anthem "has" to be religious.
I used to play a lot of TF2, but then they server banned all types of mods and I just left the game. Now I kinda only play Rainbow Six Siege and For Honor when I have the spare time. I quit the game back in 2015 so I am completely ignorant of any updates from then on.
Kade Daivis It is because Christianity played a large part in the creation, administration, and cultural upbringings of many nations. Most of European history was interwoven into the religion, from expansion of the religion, to decisions, to even just cultural ideals.
The anthems of European countries are mostly very religious simply because of the historical aspect. It is however worth mentioning that I know hardly any person that knows the Swiss anthem beyond the first three lines and that not only in the younger generations. Patriotism is not a huge thing here and I bet if it were people would probably complain about how religious the anthem is ( and some are complaining). I guess you could either say that it is time for updating to a more neutral standard since today many different religions and many non religious people are citizens or you can say it’s tradtition and you should keep it that way which I think is fine too. I might have to add that in Switzerland hardly anyone is not baptized or not a member of any church but the truth is that that’s just how it is and a lot (probably most) don’t ever or hardly go to church and don’t really belief in a god, it’s more of a tradition and community kind of thing
Translation is far from on point. It's about God, *free* Swiss and pious/devout souls. Here: When the morning skies grow red And o'er their radiance shed, Thou, O Lord, appeareth in their light. When the Alps glow bright with splendour, Pray, free Swiss, Pray, Your devout souls feel and understand, Your devout souls feel and understand, That God dwelleth in this noble Fatherland. That God dwelleth in this noble Fatherland.

Awful translation! Does not give the meaning of the original words and does not even rhyme well. Even google translation is way better - in BOTH cases. ;)
As I read the text of this hymn,I truly understand, why Switzerland is so blessed country. "God is our fatherland!"I meet with many swiss people there,I felt their heart and kindness. Not just coz Alps I can say that Schweiz is the most closest place to the Heavenly Kingdom on Earth,coz of this uncompromised God-loving spirit. Until I don't know nothing about Schweiz I thought that this is a materialistic bank country. But know I know the truth,and Schwiez is my most beloved foreign country!

Greetings from he Czech Republic!
Switzerland is truly heaven on earth.I wish we had all of this,from
Ukraine.
Awful translation!
Does not give the meaning of the original words
and does not even rhyme well.
Even google translation is way better - in BOTH cases. ;)
🙏🏻🥺how’s hard to see you, it’s my respect for your honesty. Sweet.
As I read the text of this hymn,I truly understand, why Switzerland is so blessed country. "God is our fatherland!"I meet with many swiss people there,I felt their heart and kindness. Not just coz Alps I can say that Schweiz is the most closest place to the Heavenly Kingdom on Earth,coz of this uncompromised God-loving spirit. Until I don't know nothing about Schweiz I thought that this is a materialistic bank country. But know I know the truth,and Schwiez is my most beloved foreign country!
