Mein Ur-Opa blieb im zweiten Weltkrieg in Russland verschollen als Soldat. Mein Opa (vor kurzem mit 87 verstorben) zeigte mir ein Foto von seinem Papa auf einem Motorrad mit Beiwagen von der wehrmacht. Ein absolut gutaussehender Mann und dazu die Uniform einfach nur krass. Hätte ihn sogern kennengelernt. Oma lebt noch zum glück...aber ich möchte mal nichts weiter erben als dieses foto. Ruhet alle in Frieden, egal welcher Nation die Soldaten angehört haben.
Mein Opa, Jahrgang `16, hatte 1943 eine Splittergranatenwunde erlitten, weswegen er in ein Lazarett weit hinter seiner Einheit kam. Diese Einheit war Teil der 6. Armee in Stalingrad. Seine fast tödliche Wunde hat ihn wahrscheinlich vor einem schlimmeren Schicksal bewahrt. Allerdings kam er dennoch später in fast zehnjährige Kriegsgefangenschaft/Sklaverei
I am amazed by how the translation, even though quite a bit different from the actual lyrics, has been changed up to a more poetic version (matching syllables, etc.) without actually disrupting the message at all. This way, it rhymes but is still conveying the correct image. If that's been done by you, hats off!

My gramps is too young to have witnessed WW1, but was caught up in the tail end of WW2 (born in 1930). He's told me some very haunting stories, but also many that were rather heartwarming. When he and his friends were told that they had to help defend against the Allied invasion at age 15, they met some frontline survivors who had survived the eastern front, who simply told them "War's over lads, just head home" and luckily, they did. War is terrible, no matter how you look at it. For 2023 and onwards, all I want is a more peaceful world.
Heftiges Lied. Die Intensität ist Gänsehaut erregend. Manchmal frage ich mich, ob die Eindrücke unserer Großväter in uns wohl wiederhallen. Das würde jedenfalls erklären, weshalb mich das so auflädt. Dann und wann weine ich auch, wie ein Kind. Meistens erfüllt es meine Brust aber mit Inbrunst, dann will ich wieder durchhalten. Das ist Aufbaumusik. So erlich, so nah, so wahr.
Jein. Manche mögen die Erfahrung in vorherigen Inkarnationwn tatsächlich gemacht haben, andere wiederum nicht. Und dann gibt es noch die Epigenetik, das vererben von Erfahrungen, zu denen auch Kriegstraumata (die nicht nur Soldaten, sondern ganz massiv auch Zivilisten betreffen) gehören. Wenn deine Seele ein Kriegstrauma hat, deine Vorfahren aber auch, biste dann sozusagen doppelt belastet.
Die Beobachtung machen viele. Man nennt das "transgenerationales Trauma" und das ist inzwischen auch ein wenig erforscht und es gibt viele Fallberichte. Nie wieder Krieg!
Wenn man diese Musik hört dann bekommt man „Gänzehaut“Sehr interessant und man kann sich richtig in diese Zeit versetzen wie schrecklich diese Kriegszeit war.Diese Jungs haben es gesungen mit dem Gedanken zu spielen das sie nicht wieder nach Hause kommen werden
@Carbyne Es ist besser so. Ich bin froh, dass ich keinen Wehrdienst machen muss. Die Bundeswehr hat erstens nichts mit Ehre zu tun. Ich bin ein pazifistischer Patriot, der sein Land liebt. Andere Kulturen achte ich genau so, möchte sie aber nicht so zahlreich in Deutschland vertreten wissen. Krieg hat nichts Ehrenhaftes, es zerstört Länder und Familien und dient dem Teufel zur seiner Bereicherung.
Das ist leider so in der heutigen Zeit.Viele die den Krieg immer beschönigen die sollten mal nach Syrien fahren und mal am eigenen Leib erfahren was es heist Tage der Bombardierung ausgesetzt zu sein und Familienmitglieder zu verlieren oder selbst verletzt zu sein und kein Arzt weit und breit.Das ist wirklich grauenvoll
@@tommaso8517 English has its advantages, but I'd agree that German in its basic structure is the better language. In my opinion all existing natural languages kind of suck. I hope a superior planned language will someday be the international standard.
The marching sound. The repeating of "wir sind verloren"... Men completely devoid of any hope and life, yet still walking and fighting. Wars are hell, but the 1st World War... is to me the very symbol of it.
@TheOneThatFlies Filler Indeed. They deserve so much more respect and gratitude than our generation tends to show them. For example, here in Finland, many young people openly despise the ”Reds”, hypocritically forgetting that most of the soldiers at the front in both Winter War and Continuation War (and Lapland’s War) were, indeed, ”Red”. My heart goes for all, who fought for their country’s freedom and future, on all sides, who gave their lives for that, or watched their friends die, day in and day out; as well as for their children, many of whom were orphaned much too young, and for their parents, many of whom lost their children to war, and just, in general, their families, friends, and those close to them. Thank you, great-grandparents.
@@theonethatfliesfiller4098 That's a fucking lie. We do not enjoy our peace and freedom because people fought for it. People fought for it and we realized it's pointless and we sat together, formed alliances with the goal in mind to stop fighting. Saying it's the war that made the peace is like saying it's the slavery that gave black people rights. It's complete and utter bullshit and I cannot fathom how anybody could every romanticize war in that way. You know what really stopped war in central europe? Mothers and Fathers realizing that there is no "Vaterland", that the only quality that makes a land great is that it is safe enough, that your children do not have to go to war to fight for some rich men and women, all related to each other and playing a game of monopoly in which not they, but the small guy looses. That is what stopped war. Democracy and the associated right to elect people who do not want massive armadas and fleets and colonies to boost their ego. That's what stopped war. Being able to meet our neighboor and actually notice that the frenchman is less french and more man, like ourselves. That's what stopped war. @Simo Heinonen I think it's great that you can enjoy the little things in life. I hope both of you get the chance to enjoy your life to the fullest. I apologize in advance if I was too harsh, BUT we NEED to stop romaniticizing war. There is nothing great about it, literally.
@PandaTrip Thank you, and all the same to you. Separately, I think TheOneThatFlies Filler meant that it’s because of the sacrifices our forefathers made in all those wars that we in the free world can live in relative peace and safety, not because of war itself. If there never was a war, they never would have had to make those sacrifices, and we still would be able to live in peace and safety. Perhaps even more so, because there would be no vicious cycle of revenge. But yeah, I agree about the need to stop romanticizing war. Being a Finn, ”Tuntematon sotilas” (”The Unknown Soldier”), being shown every year on Dec 6th, is among the first war movies I saw, and it’s a great movie to make you stop romanticizing war. ”Johnny Got His Gun” is also a great novel-made-into-a-movie for that purpose.
@TheOneThatFlies Filler That is very true, actually; and one of the better examples of a ”good democracy” is, in my opinion, Switzerland, because of their direct democracy. All these problems tend to be extra prevalent in representative democracy. That being said, I totally understand that a direct democracy wouldn’t work in most countries, which are not as picky about their citizens as Switzerland is. 👌🏻
To be fair his version is the official version which only contains one verse whereas the other verses were penned for this; as good as it is, it's not authentic which is more of what Dr. Ludwig attempts to show.

A song for all soldiers of all nations. As I was told a long time ago when I joined the British army, 'never wish for war because your the one who is going to have to fight it.' I have seen what those words meant.
The two biggest parts of the song for me are "Some roots that smell like corpses are all we have to eat" and "I'll only know that I'm deceased when Mother cries for me" are some of the most powerful sentences I've ever heard. Genuinely shows the disparity these men, not just the Germans, but all men on the Eastern and Western front felt. This was WW1, they were no "good guys and bad guys" like WW2, even that is subjective.
Sadly, some verses aren't translated accurately (supposedly to make the translation more melodic), for instance "Die Augen flackern angefüllt vom grauenvollen Krieg", a literal translation would be: "The eyes flicker infused with horrifying war". They depict the eyes of shellshock.
This is a sad and beautiful song at the same time. I literally shed a tear and had goosebumps listening to this while reading the lyrics and staring to the picture in the video. The German were always great warrios, since the days they faced the Romans they showed that. And it was not different in WWI. Powerful video. Thank you!
@@redux5270 the melody was written in the 50s/60s by a german, who had been a veteran in the french foreign legion of the first indochina war, the lyrics relating to ww1 were simply added by this youtuber, read the description
Ziemlich heftiges und eines der für mich besten Lieder, die ich bisher auf diesem Kanal gehört habe. Hört sich meiner Meinung nach gemäß dem Text so an, als wenn es zur Zeit des I. Weltkrieges entstanden ist.
Das ist Remarque. Der hat danach noch ein halbes Jahrhundert gelebt. Ich habe während meines Wehrdienstes sein "Im Westen nichts Neues gelesen", und ironischerweise hat sich in puncto Grundausbildung nicht viel geändert. Was er da beschreibt, war 2001/02 nicht viel anders.
@@happyspaceplumber840 nein das stimmt nicht! 1. er heißt eigentlich "Erich Paul Remark" und 2. Das Foto ist ein junger Soldat und nicht "Remarque". Der Junge auf dem Foto hat den Krieg nicht überlebt!
If this boy have seen this photograph and still is alive and have seen this song to the picture.. I am speechless.. there are no words for it.. too mixed emotions
Wenn du dir den Text richtig angehört hättest hättest du bemerkt das sie sangen ,,so geben wir in Treue für den Kaiser unser Blut‘‘ und wo wird etwas über stalingrad gesungen?
I haven't been all through the comments so apologies if this has been mentioned already. About Erich Maria Remarque - he died in 1970. He was a writer and is famous for a book set during World War I "All Quiet on the Western Front". (That's the English title anyway). I don't know whether it is read much these days. I read it many, many years ago when I was young (I'm in my early 70s now).
As a relatively poor American conservative living in a backwater, I have taken to this song and can nearly sing it in English. It is hopeless and fits the mood quite well.
@@qopiqq3629 Your german isnt that bad but the full correct sentence would be : Check Out Die Grenzwacht hielt im Osten. My English also isnt the best i guess.
I watched this like 3 times, I sang along with it amazing song. I feel bad for all those soldiers, my dad was a soldier in the Airforce, tho this this war didn't end anything ( I don't think I'm still doing research. ) The song is amazing just like you Karl Sternau.
Since many people here don't seem to realise - This song is not from ww2, there are multiple sentences directly indicating ww1, so those who connect it to the nazis are even wronger than you may think
@Souta Furumura I'm what you would consider an SJW and I wouldn't consider this hate speech. Edit. Because they are literally not doing any hate speech.
You wrote the other 4 stanzas yourself ? Congrats on the songwriting man the lyricis are fire, you really captured the horror of WW1, hats off to you !
@Isaac Himmelrot UA-cam doesn’t like ‘Nazi’ themed videos and German war songs are their definition of that very thing. And Nazi themed videos shouldn’t be removed or demonetised because it is a political belief, unless of course the video is absolute Nazi aids. They don’t mind Soviet videos but they HATE Nazi vids. And to answer to you’re context question, this video was most likely age restricted, demonetised or just removed and has since been re uploaded and UA-cam has realised their mistake.

Translation in Russian: (Wo alle Straßen enden, transl. by jessie) Там, где кончаются дороги, Продолжим мы идти, Куда не повернёшься: Назад уж нет пути. Сердце - в огне! И кажется мне, В сером нигде затеряемся мы, на передовой, И никто из нас никогда не вернётся уж к себе домой.
Отцу, сестре и матери, Что в памяти живут: Даже с пушечным оркестром Победа не светит тут. Капитан кричит! Наводи! И пли! И доблестно мы нашу кровь за кайзера прольём, Позиция французская покрыта будет вороньём.
Наш пост уже дымится, И по колени грязь, Провизия закончилась, Гниют трупы пузырясь. Обречены мы здесь! Замерзаем насмерть! Любимая, не виделись мы уже целый год, Но русские проклятые вновь наступают на Восток.
Затянет небо тучами, Деревни все в огне, Так молоды, так ю́ны мы, Нам руку тянет Смерть. Горит земля! Песок лишь в руках! В глазах стоит проклятая, жестокая война. Неужели где-то здесь себе найду могилу я?
С разорванною грудью Лежит товарищ мой. Ещё вчера в этом часу Был счастлив и здоров. Кто знает мы где? Горим в огне! Кто знает сколько солнце светить ещё будет для меня? Знаю лишь, что если я умру, будет плакать матушка. Обречены мы. Обречены мы. Обречены мы. Обречены мы. TeleGram channel for more: t.me/ihatejessie

@@robinruppert1554 I know its about ww1...like "Dunkirk" is about ww2...does that mean I can make people think that Dunkirk is a real film from 1940 and not a film made in 2019?
While this was written a few decades after the First World War, I feel it still works really well for the soldiers plight and struggles during the war. May I remind you that nobody was really the "bad guy" during WW1.
Imagine sitting in your trench, eating your meal, listening to artillery shells striking far away, and then hearing this song from the German trench through no man's land
as so many have pointed out: the german lyrics hold so much more pain and emotion, this isn't because the translation is bad, no no, by all means the translation is really damn good but german, especially with this cadence just has the ability to evoke such a strong gut wrenching feeling. it's poetry, incredible writing that moves people to tears and for good reason, never shall we have such wars again, it's the least we can do for the fallen, be they former adversaries or comrades, today we all stand together so that none shall have to go through such wretched times once more
The German-multi nationalist- I think you are asking if I served in the Soviet army and in which Soviet republic did I live? Answers: yes I did. I am from Moscow so it’s Russian Federation. A few corrections to your Russian: Ты служил в армии СССР? Из какой ты республики?
So. German soldiers are against war. Russian soldiers are against war? Why did American soldiers. Even by the one there lost. Find it so good? That's more than wierd
@@xaga8794 Because all the other countries had been fighting for way longer than America. When the war began all of the countries where happy. It's just that USA joined so late
This song can be put into any conflict ,and it would match them all. As the song tell the story every soldier goes at least once while deployed in a warzone. Sad but great song as it depicts the truth, good or bad the faction soldiers are human and thats what matters at the end .
Mein Opa stand für Kaiser und Reich 14 bis 18 an der Westfront. Bein zerschossen, EK vom Kaiser, treu gekämpft! Vater danach 42-45 an der Ostfront. Ich in der 3./PzFlaKLehrBtl 6 zur Verteidigung des Vaterlandes im Frieden. Immer treu!
Ja das finde ich auch. Dieses lied beschönigt den Krieg nicht oder dergleichen. Ich bin selber eher links aber ich meine, wären wir in dieser Zeit geboren, man hatte ja gar keinr andere wahl als in den Krieg zu ziehen. So viele leben sinnlos vergeudet für irgendeinen kaiser der niemals an der stelle der Soldaten Stand...
Mich macht es immer traurig zu sehen wie diese Kaiser und Herrscher Millionen in den Tod geschickt haben! Für NICHTS! Leider ist es auch heutzutage nicht besser! Da sind es eben die sogenannten "gewählten" Regierenden.

So the Americans along with the other allies didnt see the Germans as humans because of the inhumane things they did because of thier massive racism P.S. The Germans are not the same way i meant the nazis and i shouldve said nazis but still you get the idea

And the photo in this vid is the author. Really sad stuff
Mein Ur-Opa blieb im zweiten Weltkrieg in Russland verschollen als Soldat. Mein Opa (vor kurzem mit 87 verstorben) zeigte mir ein Foto von seinem Papa auf einem Motorrad mit Beiwagen von der wehrmacht. Ein absolut gutaussehender Mann und dazu die Uniform einfach nur krass. Hätte ihn sogern kennengelernt. Oma lebt noch zum glück...aber ich möchte mal nichts weiter erben als dieses foto. Ruhet alle in Frieden, egal welcher Nation die Soldaten angehört haben.
Your grand-grandfather was a hero, be proud of that
Mein Opa, Jahrgang `16, hatte 1943 eine Splittergranatenwunde erlitten, weswegen er in ein Lazarett weit hinter seiner Einheit kam. Diese Einheit war Teil der 6. Armee in Stalingrad. Seine fast tödliche Wunde hat ihn wahrscheinlich vor einem schlimmeren Schicksal bewahrt. Allerdings kam er dennoch später in fast zehnjährige Kriegsgefangenschaft/Sklaverei

I am amazed by how the translation, even though quite a bit different from the actual lyrics, has been changed up to a more poetic version (matching syllables, etc.) without actually disrupting the message at all. This way, it rhymes but is still conveying the correct image. If that's been done by you, hats off!
It's probably a dialect.

My gramps is too young to have witnessed WW1, but was caught up in the tail end of WW2 (born in 1930). He's told me some very haunting stories, but also many that were rather heartwarming. When he and his friends were told that they had to help defend against the Allied invasion at age 15, they met some frontline survivors who had survived the eastern front, who simply told them "War's over lads, just head home" and luckily, they did.
War is terrible, no matter how you look at it. For 2023 and onwards, all I want is a more peaceful world.
Heftiges Lied. Die Intensität ist Gänsehaut erregend. Manchmal frage ich mich, ob die Eindrücke unserer Großväter in uns wohl wiederhallen. Das würde jedenfalls erklären, weshalb mich das so auflädt. Dann und wann weine ich auch, wie ein Kind. Meistens erfüllt es meine Brust aber mit Inbrunst, dann will ich wieder durchhalten.

Erkundige dich mal über "Reinkarnation". Das waren keine anderen Menschen damals, das waren wir.
Jein. Manche mögen die Erfahrung in vorherigen Inkarnationwn tatsächlich gemacht haben, andere wiederum nicht. Und dann gibt es noch die Epigenetik, das vererben von Erfahrungen, zu denen auch Kriegstraumata (die nicht nur Soldaten, sondern ganz massiv auch Zivilisten betreffen) gehören. Wenn deine Seele ein Kriegstrauma hat, deine Vorfahren aber auch, biste dann sozusagen doppelt belastet.
Die Beobachtung machen viele. Man nennt das "transgenerationales Trauma" und das ist inzwischen auch ein wenig erforscht und es gibt viele Fallberichte.
Nie wieder Krieg!
Wenn man diese Musik hört dann bekommt man „Gänzehaut“Sehr interessant und man kann sich richtig in diese Zeit versetzen wie schrecklich diese Kriegszeit war.Diese Jungs haben es gesungen mit dem Gedanken zu spielen das sie nicht wieder nach Hause kommen werden
@Carbyne Es ist besser so. Ich bin froh, dass ich keinen Wehrdienst machen muss. Die Bundeswehr hat erstens nichts mit Ehre zu tun. Ich bin ein pazifistischer Patriot, der sein Land liebt. Andere Kulturen achte ich genau so, möchte sie aber nicht so zahlreich in Deutschland vertreten wissen.
Krieg hat nichts Ehrenhaftes, es zerstört Länder und Familien und dient dem Teufel zur seiner Bereicherung.
Das ist leider so in der heutigen Zeit.Viele die den Krieg immer beschönigen die sollten mal nach Syrien fahren und mal am eigenen Leib erfahren was es heist Tage der Bombardierung ausgesetzt zu sein und Familienmitglieder zu verlieren oder selbst verletzt zu sein und kein Arzt weit und breit.Das ist wirklich grauenvoll

I must say, this song really makes me appreciate being safely home and drinking my hot-ass coffee and dark beer. Just the simple pleasures of life.
@TheOneThatFlies Filler Indeed. They deserve so much more respect and gratitude than our generation tends to show them. For example, here in Finland, many young people openly despise the ”Reds”, hypocritically forgetting that most of the soldiers at the front in both Winter War and Continuation War (and Lapland’s War) were, indeed, ”Red”. My heart goes for all, who fought for their country’s freedom and future, on all sides, who gave their lives for that, or watched their friends die, day in and day out; as well as for their children, many of whom were orphaned much too young, and for their parents, many of whom lost their children to war, and just, in general, their families, friends, and those close to them. Thank you, great-grandparents.
@@theonethatfliesfiller4098 That's a fucking lie. We do not enjoy our peace and freedom because people fought for it. People fought for it and we realized it's pointless and we sat together, formed alliances with the goal in mind to stop fighting.
Saying it's the war that made the peace is like saying it's the slavery that gave black people rights. It's complete and utter bullshit and I cannot fathom how anybody could every romanticize war in that way.
You know what really stopped war in central europe?
Mothers and Fathers realizing that there is no "Vaterland", that the only quality that makes a land great is that it is safe enough, that your children do not have to go to war to fight for some rich men and women, all related to each other and playing a game of monopoly in which not they, but the small guy looses. That is what stopped war. Democracy and the associated right to elect people who do not want massive armadas and fleets and colonies to boost their ego. That's what stopped war. Being able to meet our neighboor and actually notice that the frenchman is less french and more man, like ourselves. That's what stopped war.
@Simo Heinonen I think it's great that you can enjoy the little things in life. I hope both of you get the chance to enjoy your life to the fullest. I apologize in advance if I was too harsh, BUT we NEED to stop romaniticizing war. There is nothing great about it, literally.
@PandaTrip Thank you, and all the same to you. Separately, I think TheOneThatFlies Filler meant that it’s because of the sacrifices our forefathers made in all those wars that we in the free world can live in relative peace and safety, not because of war itself. If there never was a war, they never would have had to make those sacrifices, and we still would be able to live in peace and safety. Perhaps even more so, because there would be no vicious cycle of revenge. But yeah, I agree about the need to stop romanticizing war. Being a Finn, ”Tuntematon sotilas” (”The Unknown Soldier”), being shown every year on Dec 6th, is among the first war movies I saw, and it’s a great movie to make you stop romanticizing war. ”Johnny Got His Gun” is also a great novel-made-into-a-movie for that purpose.
@TheOneThatFlies Filler That is very true, actually; and one of the better examples of a ”good democracy” is, in my opinion, Switzerland, because of their direct democracy. All these problems tend to be extra prevalent in representative democracy. That being said, I totally understand that a direct democracy wouldn’t work in most countries, which are not as picky about their citizens as Switzerland is. 👌🏻

A song for all soldiers of all nations. As I was told a long time ago when I joined the British army, 'never wish for war because your the one who is going to have to fight it.' I have seen what those words meant.
The two biggest parts of the song for me are "Some roots that smell like corpses are all we have to eat" and "I'll only know that I'm deceased when Mother cries for me" are some of the most powerful sentences I've ever heard. Genuinely shows the disparity these men, not just the Germans, but all men on the Eastern and Western front felt. This was WW1, they were no "good guys and bad guys" like WW2, even that is subjective.
Sadly, some verses aren't translated accurately (supposedly to make the translation more melodic), for instance "Die Augen flackern angefüllt vom grauenvollen Krieg", a literal translation would be: "The eyes flicker infused with horrifying war". They depict the eyes of shellshock.
In ww2 no bad and good guys, like in films
i listened to the other version of this on repeat for quite some time, thank you for this one
This is a sad and beautiful song at the same time. I literally shed a tear and had goosebumps listening to this while reading the lyrics and staring to the picture in the video.

I haven't been all through the comments so apologies if this has been mentioned already. About Erich Maria Remarque - he died in 1970. He was a writer and is famous for a book set during World War I "All Quiet on the Western Front". (That's the English title anyway). I don't know whether it is read much these days. I read it many, many years ago when I was young (I'm in my early 70s now).

German soldier: *Sings about the horrors of war, and just wanting to go home*
UA-cam: N A Z I !!!!!!
This is ww1 bro, there were no nazis but, i guess UA-cam does that too
isn't he a ww1 soldier ?
@@Sina.575 no its about how youtube thinks about german soldiers with stalhelms they just judge by their looks
UA-cam: UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!!
if wanted to go home, he would stay home
Very beautifull, yet very sad song. Cheers to the german people.
but not on German politics…
While this was written a few decades after the First World War, I feel it still works really well for the soldiers plight and struggles during the war. May I remind you that nobody was really the "bad guy" during WW1.
May all those who served during this dreadful war rest in peace and god bless them; no nation in Europe won this war at home
Dude, I'm so glad that we found the origin of the song.
Wir sind verloren, wir sind verloren...
Imagine sitting in your trench, eating your meal, listening to artillery shells striking far away, and then hearing this song from the German trench through no man's land
I would love to buy a CD with this song on it. I'm looking all around.
as so many have pointed out: the german lyrics hold so much more pain and emotion, this isn't because the translation is bad, no no, by all means the translation is really damn good but german, especially with this cadence just has the ability to evoke such a strong gut wrenching feeling. it's poetry, incredible writing that moves people to tears and for good reason, never shall we have such wars again, it's the least we can do for the fallen, be they former adversaries or comrades, today we all stand together so that none shall have to go through such wretched times once more
This is a true song about war. The absurdity of it. Peace from former Soviet Private.
Ты Рабоча за СССР армия? Что республика из СССР?
The German-multi nationalist- I think you are asking if I served in the Soviet army and in which Soviet republic did I live?
Answers: yes I did. I am from Moscow so it’s Russian Federation.
A few corrections to your Russian: Ты служил в армии СССР? Из какой ты республики?
So. German soldiers are against war. Russian soldiers are against war? Why did American soldiers. Even by the one there lost. Find it so good? That's more than wierd
@@xaga8794 Because all the other countries had been fighting for way longer than America. When the war began all of the countries where happy. It's just that USA joined so late
I'm so glad that i found this masterpiece.
This song can be put into any conflict ,and it would match them all. As the song tell the story every soldier goes at least once while deployed in a warzone. Sad but great song as it depicts the truth, good or bad the faction soldiers are human and thats what matters at the end .
Mein Opa stand für Kaiser und Reich 14 bis 18 an der Westfront. Bein zerschossen, EK vom Kaiser, treu gekämpft! Vater danach 42-45 an der Ostfront. Ich in der 3./PzFlaKLehrBtl 6 zur Verteidigung des Vaterlandes im Frieden. Immer treu!
@Recht oh!!!
Vocês tinham um dos exércitos mais geniais so mundo!! Como o seu governo deixou suas forças armadas caírem tanto de produção.

Wir heute können uns garnicht die schreken des 1sten Weltkrieges vorstellen dieses Lied gibt mir einen Einblick in diese Zeiten
Ja das finde ich auch. Dieses lied beschönigt den Krieg nicht oder dergleichen. Ich bin selber eher links aber ich meine, wären wir in dieser Zeit geboren, man hatte ja gar keinr andere wahl als in den Krieg zu ziehen. So viele leben sinnlos vergeudet für irgendeinen kaiser der niemals an der stelle der Soldaten Stand...
Es ist schon ein bisschen wie schlecht der Text übersetzt wurde
Mich macht es immer traurig zu sehen wie diese Kaiser und Herrscher Millionen in den Tod geschickt haben! Für NICHTS! Leider ist es auch heutzutage nicht besser! Da sind es eben die sogenannten "gewählten" Regierenden.
Stay strong European patriots.
One day, soon, we shall stand together... and prevail ! ✨⚔️✨
Long live the European culture !
With respect and fraternal love from France. ✨🇫🇷✨
@@averageyoutubeuser597 True 😂👍
Get rid this nonsense،،، you are just afraid that the Germans will make you their backyard again
not the best idea to encourage german nationalism as a french
@@SeucheFracht612 We are all part of the european union, if anything this is for the best, instead of spreading useless rivalism
@@theamorphousflatsch2699 yeah i agree it was meant as a joke
Danke, Karl.
Danke, Freunde, für Eure Kommentare.
Wann immer ich in unserem Heimatland an einem Mahnmal unserer FÜR UNS GEFALLENEN KAMERADEN vorbei komme, halte ich an und verneige mich.
Deutsch sein kann man nicht lernen.
Deutsch ist man. Mit dem Herzen.
Sehe ich auch so. Großen Respekt an unsere gefallenen Kameraden in beiden Kriegen!
Величайшая песня. Das größte Lied!
