You can't hardly do better than "Das Panzerlied". All the songs in the original "East Front" were great, but this one is the best IMO.[;)]
I agree this is an excellent WII song. Can anyone translate ?
1.
Whether it storms or snows,
Whether the sun smiles upon us,
The day glowing hot
Or the night freezing cold.
Dusty are our faces,
But happy we're at heart,
We're at heart,
As our tank roars,
In the stormwind along.
As our tank roars,
In the stormwind along.
2.
With thundering engines,
Fast like the lightning,
Towards the enemy,
Within our armoured tank.
Ahead of our comrades,
In battle we stand alone,
Yes, we stand alone,
That's how we thrust deep,
Into the enemy ranks.
That's how we thrust deep,
Into the enemy ranks.
3.
When before us,
An enemy tank appears,
Full throttle is given
And we close in on the enemy!
What does then our life matter
For the army of our state?
Yes, to the army of our state?
To die for Germany,
Is our highest honour.
To die for Germany,
Is our highest honour.
4.
With obstacles and mines
The foe blocks our path,
We laugh at them
And pass them by.
It shakes violently and furiously,
In our hand,
Yes, In our hand,
We find a path for ourselves,
That no one else has found.
We find a path for ourselves,
That no one else has found.
5.
And if we're left in the gutter,
By disloyal luck some day,
And if we don't return,
Back to our homeland again,
If a bullet strikes us down,
If fate calls upon us,
Yes, calls on us,
Then our tank will be,
An iron grave to us!
Then our tank will be,
An iron grave to us!
