Where are the ones of stone and fire
Blood running hot with red desire
Where are the ones of earth and sea
Strong as tempests, always free
We hang upon the iron cross
We burn, we thirst for what we lost
How our forebears must be grieved
To see the yoke upon our soul
How our children are deceived
Believe that weakness is their role
We hang upon the iron cross
We burn, we thirst for what we lost
We hang on the iron cross
We hang on the iron cross
We bow our heads and wear our chains
Complicit in our own demise
What part of past pride now remains
Glittering in conquered eyes
We hang upon the iron cross
We burn, we thirst for what we lost
Oh, oh the iron cross
The iron cross
