Strong he was and great in fame People came to hail his name Once again they travel wide To walk the last time by his side Germania she still is free She owes it to his victories The Roman Varus he did beat Germanicus he saw retreat Gone he is gone All that lives comes to end So now just Rest in Peace Gone he is gone A poison you can't defend So now just Rest in Peace A people strong to rule their land United under his own hand But some are here who cry today Bus lost belief along the way Adgandaster the Chatti lord He fed him poison 'cause he feared the sword A deed by traitor done Who lives on like a wayward son
