Slanias Song

Grim battles against countless foes
Have steeled you from the shores of the Rhine
To the top of the Alps, your fair meadows
Your rank heath lands

The choirs of bards, sing the glory
Of the undying names of fallen heroes
That gave their lives their blood
For the freedom of their fatherland

Oh, Sovereignty of my fathers
Oh, land of my countrymen
From your root sprang a glorious nation
Of dure heroes

Oh, dulcet blossom of the living world
Oh, my fatherland, oh my, Helvetia

Your woman and maids, noble and fair
Your highest men to this brave song
They join in, the sword in my hand
Stand up and sing

Oh, Sovereignty of my fathers
Oh, land of my countrymen
From your root sprang as glorious nation
Of dure heroes

Oh, dulcet blossom of the living world
Oh, my fatherland, oh my, Helvetia
