(from Lohsa)
Translated by H. Melvin Symmank

In the burning upper room
By the bright window,
By the clear moonlight:

We speak to each other:
We want to be heard.
We want to be heard.

Hey! We stand then there near by
Who is the word's witness?
Who is the word's witness?

The congregation all at once together
Our brave lads all.
Our brave lads all.

All the young comrades
Should now be unnumbered.
Should now be unnumbered.
