Upon Fields of Grey

[Verse] Young Hans marched through snow and field The weight of war A bitter shield Fighting Russians at dawn's first light Courage within His only might [Verse 2] Then came the Draka Cruel and cold With iron chains Their stories told Hans fought bravely But fell in the end Now in darkness He must bend [Chorus] See the Janissaries stride so tall While our womenfolk bow and stall A serf in chains But hope still flies For Germany once more will rise [Verse 3] In shadows of defeat he dwells The crack of whips The tolling bells His spirit whispers through the years In blood and sweat Drown all his fears [Verse 4] Children of Africa walk with pride On German soil Now they reside Yet in each heart a fire burns The dawn of freedom How it yearns [Chorus] See the Janissaries stride so tall While our womenfolk bow and stall A serf in chains But hope still flies For Germany once more will rise
