Swinging Bells of Limburg

Verse 1:
There high up in the tower,
they hang there as a set
reliable and trusted,
the big bells and the small.
The small ones bring us happiness,
the big ones can be sad;
The wind ensures the chimes are heard
far across the fields.

Refrain:
Dear ringing bells of
Limburg, my homeland
Dear ringing bells that
strengthen our ties.
Let us just listen
to what is occurring
those sweet ringing bells
of Limburg, my land.
Bim-bam, bim-bam,
the bells of Limburg, my land.
Bim-bam, bim-bam,
the bells that strengthen our ties.

Verse 2:
We hear them oh so gladly,
those ever charming chimes
that ring to gently lead us
throughout our whole lifetime.
And when the bells fall silent,
then life seems bare and still
We wait with eager longing
to hear the bells again.

Refrain:
