Maybe you should practice again if you want to sing along loudly with our Bavarian anthem at the spectacular conclusion of the open-air concert on Sunday. But: the whole country can be there on TV at the Oktoberfest on Sunday, because: Bavarian television and Munich TV are broadcasting the open-air concert feet of Bavaria.
Official version / text of the Bavarian anthem
1st verse:
Gott mit dir, du Land der Bayern,
deutsche Erde, Vaterland!
Über deinen weiten Gauen
ruhe Seine Segenshand!
|: Er behüte deine Fluren,
schirme deiner Städte Bau
Und erhalte dir die Farben
Seines Himmels, weiß und blau! :|
2. Strophe:
Gott mit dir, dem Bayernvolke,
dass wir, uns’rer Väter wert,
fest in Eintracht und in Frieden
bauen uns’res Glückes Herd!
|: Dass mit Deutschlands Bruderstämmen
einig uns ein jeder schau
und den alten Ruhm bewähre
unser Banner, weiß und blau! :|
Official version / text of the Bavarian anthem in English
(only the German version is sung at the Oktoberfest concert and in Bavaria in general - anyone who knows Munich and Bavaria knows how the poet of the anthem thought and felt.)
1st verse:
God be with you, you land of Bavaria,
German earth, fatherland!
Over your wide horizons
rest His blessing hand!
|: He guards your fields,
protect the construction of your cities
And get the colors
His sky, white and blue! :|
2nd verse:
God be with you, the Bavarian people,
that we, worthy of our fathers,
firmly in unity and in peace
build the hearth of our happiness!
|: That with Germany's brother tribes
everyone agrees
and prove the old glory
our banner, white and blue! :|
