My queen, I forgot,
who or what I was,
Just a small tin soldier,
that the fire felt sorry for
Steadfast stands the tin soldier,
colorfully painted on the battlefield
Bravely he goes to war,
for the queen; he is in love
He thinks of her and sings a song
Play with me, my fatherland
Show me the way to her
Give me your hand
Play with me, my fatherland
Show me the way to her
Give me your hand
Fatherland
The first blow, the earth shakes
Just a tower that no longer stands..
He will go through the fire for her
Can he ever see her again?
He thinks of her and sings a song
Play with me, my fatherland
Show me the way to her
Give me your hand
Play with me, my fatherland
Show me the way to her
Give me your hand
Fatherland
My queen, I forgot,
who or what I was,
Just a small tin soldier,
that the fire felt sorry for
Now the army sings my song
Play with me, my fatherland
Show me the way to her
Give me your hand
Play with me, my fatherland
Show me the way to her
Give me your hand
Fatherland
Play with me, my fatherland
