Wenn die bunten Fahnen wehen [English translation]

When the colorful banners are waving

We ride all across the sea

Toward distant lands is our craving

Taking leave is not hard for me

Sun blazing yonder, as the clouds wander

Across the ocean our songs ring free

How the solar rays are a pleasure

Smile for us on a jovial day

Though she sometimes withhold her treasure

When its cloudy, come what may

Tempests are soaring,Waves they are roaring

We join in with the storms in our song

Hey the migrant birds, they wander

Past the dark night sky they streak

Sing their song and then fly yonder

As they wake the world from sleep

After daybreak they have gone further

Past the mighty mountains, who knows whereto

Where the blue tipped peaks are standing

Calls the mountain path so steep

Further without hesitation

Take the summit in one sweep

Snow patches glisten, we stand and listen

Lands they are sinking in the cloudy sea
