5 Millionen [English translation]
5 Millionen [English translation]
You shape the steel for many years.
Have endured pain and blame
With bent back without complaint
you are going to your shift.
Dirt and grime has tradition
Like father, like son.
Dirt and grime has tradition
Honest work, honest wage
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
One last time you feel the embers
The first time you feel the rage
5 million before the gates
On the banner visions of the future
You are one of millions
The future must be worthwhile
You were the hero in the burst of sparks
You gave the factory your whole life.
You are more than a number.
The situation fills your heart with grief.
You feel brazenly lied to
On your flag stand slogans
On your face the truth is stated
You will fight for the work
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
One last time you feel the embers
The first time you feel the rage
5 million before the gates
On the banner visions of the future
You are one of millions
The future must be worthwhile
5 million before the gates
On the banner visions of the future
You are one of millions
The future must be worthwhile
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
From the hot forehead, sweat must run.
One last time you feel the embers
The first time you feel the rage
5 million before the gates
On the banner visions of the future
You are one of millions
The future must be worthwhile
5 million before the gates
On the banner visions of the future
You are one of millions
The future must be worthwhile
