Lyrics

Chorus:
Awake from your sleep it's been a long slumber
It's been over 50 years of the spell you've been under
Awake oh' fatherland

Destruction and prosperity you've seen it all
Built the greatest empire then see it fall
You stood alone against jealousy and hate
The world couldn't stand to see you so great

(Repeat chorus)

You were ravaged and torn, your will defiled
Villanized by the world in a series of trials
Now broken, they tried to drown you in guilt
You picked up the pieces and now you've rebuilt

(Repeat chorus)

Your citizens divided and families kept apart
Divided by a wall built right through your heart
Prisoners of twin evils, their fates were decided
But then the wall fell and the people reunited

(Repeat chorus) x2

Awake my fatherland
