Luxembourg National Anthem Lyrics

Luxembourg

Ons H�m�cht

(Our Motherland)



Original Letzeburgesch Words

Wo d'Uelzecht duerch d'Wisen ze't,

D�rch d'Fielzen d'Sauer br�cht,

Wo' d'Ref l�nscht d'Musel dofteg ble't,

Den Himmel Wein ons m�cht:

Dat ass onst Land, fir dat mer ge'f

Heinidden alles won,

Ons Hemeschtsland dat mir so' de'f

An onsen Hierzer dron.

(repeat previous two lines)


O Du do uewen, dem seng Hand

Durch d'Welt Natio'ne let,

Behitt du d'L�tzeburger Land

Vum frieme Joch a Led;

Du hues ons all als Kanner schon

De freie G�scht jo ginn,

Loss viru bl�nken d'Freihetsonn,

De' mir so' l�ng gesinn.

(repeat previous two lines)



English:

Where slow you see the Alzette flow,

The Sura play wild pranks,

Where lovely vineyards amply grow,

Upon the Moselle's banks,

There lies the land for which our thanks

Are owed to God above,

Our own, our native land which ranks

Well foremost in our love.

(repeat previous two lines)


Oh Father in Heaven, Whose powerful hand

Makes states or lays them low,

Protect the Luxembourger land

From foreign yoke and woe.

God's golden liberty bestow

On us now as of yore.

Let Freedom's sun in glory glow

For now and evermore.

(repeat previous two lines)
