Das Lied der Deutschen [Deutschlandlied] [English [Old English] translation]

Þēodsċland, Þēodsċland ofer eallum,

Ofer eallum on þǣre ƿeorolde,

Hƿænne hit cymeþ to helme ond beƿerende

Brōðorlīċ samenheald,

Fram þǣre *Mase to þǣre Memele,

Fram þǣre *Esċe to þǣm Belte -

Þēodsċland, Þēodsċland ofer eallum,

Ofer eallum on þǣre ƿeorold

Þēodisċe ƿīfmenn, Þēodisċ trēoƿ,

Þēodisċ ƿīn ond Þēodisċ sang

Sċulan on þǣre ƿeorold behealden

Heora eald fæġer hlēoðor,

Ūs to æðelu dǣd ġetēoþ

Ūru hāl līf lang.

Þēodisċe ƿīfmenn, Þēodisċ trēoƿ,

Þēodisċ ƿīn ond Þēodisċ sang.

Ānnes ond rihtnes ond freodom

For þǣm þēodisċum fæderlande!

Æfter þam lǣtaþ ūs eall flīten

Brōðorliċ mid heortan ond handa!

Ānnes ond rihtnes ond freodom

Sind þǣre sǣlþe āþ.

Blōƿ in sċīman þisse sǣlþe

Blōƿ, þēodisċ fæderland.
