What use is the maiden mowers and bastions
Citadels and cannons
when the shamer carries me sword and spiek
because she kept him waiting too long?
Pappenheim fortifies
and Wallenstein take off to the stars
Lord be not far away
when Magdeburg burns
a bloody squat time will take place
with more than 20,000 men under Woffen
the lion remains far away we from midnight
now the maiden is made a whore
Tilly is approaching
and Wallenstein starts to the stars
Lord be not far away
when Magdeburg burns
The The maiden shudders from the harsh rain
made of hard iron, with a thousand blows
the emperor's servants destroy the country
set her clothes and hair on fire
Soon the air will be strong, soon dark around and around
Whoever doesn't scream will remain silent forever
The army is storming
and Wallenstein takes off towards the stars
The Lord be merciful to us
Magdeburg is burning !
