This is the country in which one doesn't understand
That "foreign" is not another word for "enemy"
In which visitors can only come
If they promise that they'll leave soon
And it is also where I live
Even if it's just a coincidence
And sometimes it falls back to me
That if a person from another land
Cannot live here anymore without fear
Because every day, more keeps happening
And the hate towards foreigners escalates
And no one knows how and when
We will stop this imbecility
It's also where I live
And I cannot live in,
as if it doesn't concern me
It is your country, too
And you are guilty
if you close your eyes on it
This the country in which so many keep silent
when crazy people walk in the street
In order to prove to the whole world
That the Germans are again the Germans
This provocation, it applies to me and you
Because you and I come from here
So no foreigner can help us
This problem is ours alone
I have no desire to watch longer still
I am tired of it, only to read and support
For this enemy will not turn me around
It's also my country
And I don't want another Fourth Reich
It is your country, too
Stand up and help so that blind hate
does not destroy it
It's also my country
And its reputation is already ruined
It's also your country
Come, let's show
that other people can live here too
