    YouTube - Fallschirmjäger greifen an
    Beautiful song! German songs are the best!

    1. Hinter den Bergen strahlet die Sonne,
    glühen die Gipfel so rot,
    Stehen Maschinen, die woll'n mit uns fliegen,
    fliegen in Sieg oder Tod.
    Hurra, wir starten, hurra, wir starten,
    wenn die erste Morgensonne scheint,
    Fallschirmjäger, Fallschirmjäger
    gehen ran an den Feind! ​

    Refrain:
    Narvik, Rotterdam, Korinth
    Und das heiße Kreta sind
    Stätten unserer Siege!
    |: Ja, wir greifen immer an,
    Fallschirmjäger gehen ran,
    Sind bereit, zu wagen! :|​

    2. Hoch in den Lüften fliegt unser Vogel
    stolz und frei durch die Luft,
    Standhaft und ehrsam sind unsere Herzen,
    wenn das Kommando uns ruft.
    Hurra, wir fliegen, hurra, wir fliegen,
    wenn die erste Morgensonne scheint,
    Fallschirmjäger, Fallschirmjäger
    gehen ran an den Feind! ​

    3. Hoch aus den Wolken stürzen wir nieder,
    tief in die feindlichen Reih'n.
    Gegner, wir kommen, habt ihr's vernommen,
    bald wird der Sieg unser sein!
    Hurra, wir springen, hurra, wir springen,
    wenn die erste Morgensonne scheint,
    Fallschirmjäger, Fallschirmjäger
    gehen ran an den Feind! ​

    Im not a huge Luftwaffe fan but I do like "Die Luftwaffe Marsch" which is a pretty nifty tune. However, I like Die Panzerlied and most of Die Infanterie songs the most. If you want a Very good Cd that has all WWII German songs on it-sung by a former WWII Fallschirmjager, I forget what it was called in German but, in English it is called: "Songs we once sang." This one can be bought at: Brandenburg Historica LLC: Books, Music and Military Collectibles This place has one hell of an excellent selection on German wartime/marching music.

    Thanks Sturm. I had heard this song before, but it's the first time I actually read the lyrics. I'm surprised they added Crete since they lost so many men there.
