[chorus]
Awake from your sleep
It's been a long slumber
It's been over 50 years
of the spell you've been under
Awake o' Fatherland
[verse 1]
Destruction and prosperity--
you've seen it all
Built the greatest empire then seen it fall
You stood alone against jealousy and hate
The world couldn't stand
to see you so great
[chorus]
[verse 2]
You were ravaged and torn,
your will defiled
Villanized by the world in a series of trials
Now broken, they tried
to drown you in guilt
You picked up the pieces
and now you've rebuilt
[chorus]
[verse 3]
Your citizens divided
and families kept apart
Divided by a wall
built right through your heart
Prisoners of twin evils,
their fates were decided
But then the wall fell
and the people were reunited
[chorus]
[chorus]
Awake from your sleep
It's been a long slumber
It's been over 50 years
of the spell you've been under
I look to the future it's in your hands
It's time to awake, my fatherland
[chorus]
Awake, my fatherland
Awake from your sleep
It's been a long slumber
It's been over 50 years
of the spell you've been under
Awake o' Fatherland
[verse 1]
Destruction and prosperity--
you've seen it all
Built the greatest empire then seen it fall
You stood alone against jealousy and hate
The world couldn't stand
to see you so great

your will defiled
Villanized by the world in a series of trials
Now broken, they tried

Your citizens divided
and families kept apart
Divided by a wall
built right through your heart
