I posted because I did the U.S. one and the Canadian one.

I used the entire version because the poet wrote the whole thing and its not my place to change that, whatever the pc thing to do is. Also, when that was written, and how it was written, he wanted Germany to be in the Weimarer Republic phase of its history then so he wanted something to get people to see Germany as one country. This is like the German "this land is my land."

I also included the fourth verse by some other guy because i included other versions of the Canadian one. I'm wrecked write now, true, but not when posted it. I also included the latin part, because..

also, for those of you who don't know, the third verse is what Germany now uses for national anthem. Some people want the second verse banned, other people say those people are nuts. Some germans write "West Germans F**k Off on the remnants of the Berlin wall. That was just a random fact.
