Lyrics (German):
In Erwägung unserer Schwäche machtet ihr Gesetze, die uns knechten soll'n
die Gesetze seien künftig nicht beachtet
in Erwägung, daß wir nicht mehr Knecht sein woll'n.

In Erwägung, daß ihr uns dann eben mit Gewehren und Kanonen droht
haben wir beschlossen, nunmehr schlechtes Leben mehr zu fürchten als den Tod.

In Erwägung, daß wir hungrig bleiben wenn wir dulden, daß ihr uns bestehlt
wollen wir mal feststell'n, daß nur Fensterscheiben uns vom Brote trennen, das uns fehlt.

English Traslation by John Hamilton (1989)
Knowing we are weak you pass more laws - laws to make us slaves that’s why we’ve sworn
That from now on we these laws will just ignore and simply stop being slaves any more.

And although we know you’ll turn to violence, no other language do you understand.
We’ve decided that it’s only common sense to risk our lives and make a stand.

Knowing that we'll go on being hungry, If we let you go on stealing what's our due
We have realised that it's only window panes that separate the bread from us to keep for you.
