Die Gedanken Sind Frei, my thoughts freely flower
Die Gedanken Sind Frei, my thoughts give me power
No scholar can map them, no hunter can trap them

No man can deny, Die Gedanken Sind Frei
No man can deny, Die Gedanken Sind Frei

I think as I please and this gives me pleasure
My conscience decrees this right I must treasure
My thoughts will not cater to duke or dictator

No man can deny, Die Gedanken Sind Frei
No man can deny, Die Gedanken Sind Frei

And should tyrants can take me and throw me in prison
My thoughts will burst free like blossoms in season
Foundations will crumble and structures will tumble

And free men will cry, Die Gedanken Sind Frei
And free men will cry, Die Gedanken Sind Frei
