I could never sing , but just listening made me tear up ! I pray for all those families that have lost. Even we (Eyes and myself) have lost many this year.

We are a divided Nation on that theme since World War II. To me it is in the line and appropiate. It is still part of a funeral with military honours of the German Bundeswehr. That song was composed during the Napoleonic Wars and published in 1812. We sang that song at School during Music lessons. We had a teacher of 70 years back than. Ich hatt einen Kameraden, einen bessern findst du nicht. Die Trommel schlug zum Streite, er ging an meiner Seite im gleichen Schritt und Tritt, im gleichen Schritt und Tritt. Eine Kugel kam geflogen: Gilt sie mir gilt sie dir? Ihn hat es weggerissen, er liegt vor meinen Füßen, als wärs ein Stück von mir. Will mir die Hand noch reichen, derweil ich eben lad: Kann dir die Hand nicht geben, bleib du im ewgen Leben mein guter Kamerad! I had a comrade, you'll never find a better one. The drum was beating for a fight, he walked by my side in the same step and kick, in the same step and kick. A bullet came flying: Is it meant for me? It tore him away, he lies at my feet, like it was a piece of me. Still want to give me a hand, while I load: I can't shake your hand, you stay in eternal life my good comrade!

It is a very sad song and music. And it is not heroic glorification of war and death. During the Napoleonic war, Germany was divided in many princely states and some large states with the effect, some were than French controlled, that neighbours fought for the French and against the French and killing each other. Interpretation THere are other interpretations and since 1949 there is controversy about the song. Depends, whom you ask. LISA IRONMAKER likes this.

God bless the soldier who laid down his life so that we may continue to live.
