Ons Heemecht

Wou d’Uelzecht durech d’Wisen zéit,
Duerch d’Fielsen d’Sauer brëcht.
Wou d’Rief laanscht d’Musel dofteg bléit,
Den Himmel Wäin ons mëcht.
Dat as onst Land, fir dat mir géif,
Heinidden alles won.
Ons Heemechtsland, dat mir sou déif
An onsen Hierzer dron..
 
O Du do uewen, deem séng Hand
Duurch d’Welt d’Natioune leet.
Behitt Du d’Lëtzebuerger Land
Vru friemem Joch a Leed !
Du hues ons all als Kanner schon
de fräie Geescht jo gin.
Looss viru blénken d’Fräiheetssonn
déi mir sou laang gesin.

English Lyrics

Our Motherland

Where the Alzette slowly flows,
The Sura plays wild pranks,
Where fragrant vineyards amply grow
On the Mosella’s banks ;
There lies the land for which we would
Dare everything down here,
Our own, our native land which ranks
Deeply in our hearts.
 
O Thou above whose powerful hand
Makes States or lays them low,
Protect this Luxembourger land
From foreign yoke and woe.
Your spirit of liberty bestow
On us now as of yore.
Let Freedom’s sun in glory glow
For now and evermore.
