Panzerlied [German tank song] [+English translation]

This version is from the movie "The Bulge": en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_...)
Which is why they only sing the first part.
The Panzerlied is one of the best known Wehrmacht songs. It was composed on the 28th of June 1935 by Oberleutnant Kurt Wiehle while on his way to Königsbrück. Wiehle adapted a German sailor's song called "Luiska-Lied (Wohl über den Klippen)" writing lyrics more appropriate to the Panzerwaffe. At the time, Germany was clandestinely developing an armored force in defiance of the Treaty of Versailles. The song could be considered as a reflection of the German re-armament, launched in the same time frame as the song was written.
It has gained fame in the English-speaking world due to its usage in the 1965 film Battle of the Bulge. While throughout that film German characters speak English, the song is sung in the original German.
In 2017, the German army was banned from publishing song books containing Panzerlied and other marching songs by the Minister of Defence Ursula von der Leyen as part of new efforts at denazification. It has been heavily criticized as unnecessary censorship of German military culture.

Ob´s stürmt oder schneit,
Ob die Sonne uns lacht,
Der Tag glühend heiß
Oder eiskalt die Nacht.
Bestaubt sind die Gesichter,
Doch froh ist unser Sinn,
Ist unser Sinn;
Es braust unser Panzer
Im Sturmwind dahin.
Mit donnernden Motoren,
Geschwind wie der Blitz,
Dem Feinde entgegen,
Im Panzer geschützt.
Voraus den Kameraden,
Im Kampf steh’n wir allein,
Steh’n wir allein,
So stoßen wir tief
In die feindlichen Reihn.
Wenn vor uns ein feindliches
Heer dann erscheint,
Wird Vollgas gegeben
Und ran an den Feind!
Was gilt denn unser Leben
Für unsres Reiches Heer?
Ja Reiches Heer?
Für Deutschland zu sterben
Ist uns höchste Ehr.
Mit Sperren und Minen
Hält der Gegner uns auf,
Wir lachen darüber
Und fahren nicht drauf.
Und droh’n vor uns Geschütze,
Versteckt im gelben Sand,
Im gelben Sand,
Wir suchen uns Wege,
Die keiner sonst fand.
Und lässt uns im Stich
Einst das treulose Glück,
Und kehren wir nicht mehr
Zur Heimat zurück,
Trifft uns die Todeskugel,
Ruft uns das Schicksal ab,
Ja Schicksal ab,
Dann wird uns der Panzer
Ein ehernes Grab.

Because so many people complain: This version is from the movie "The Bulge": en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Bulge_(1965_film)
Which is why they only sing the first part. I did not edit it, to repeat the first part, so pls complain to the movie makers not me XD

Nur weil dies ein amerikanischer Film ist..

I met a former Panzer years ago on package delivery , noticed his accent and hailed him in German … he responded immediately in German and said he was 15 in 1945 in a Panzer unit … he further said , “ we were just boys and would have been in ‘hoch schule’ if we were in America at that time “ … a polite & honest man who knew the song first hand !!!

[@WalburgisLuppus]

He was right and he was lucky to have survived. My mothers older cousin was killed in action. He fought in the 12. SS-Panzer-Division “HJ” as a SS-Untersturmführer. His name was Helmut Esser. Walburgis Luppus was a female ancestor of ours from the 17.th century who immigrated from Belgium to the Ruhr in Germany. After many generations passed our family considered themselves German on that side of the family. However, there has been interaction between Belgium, France and Germany in that area for centuries. My Mother only shared her cousins identity with me less than ten years ago. I have one photo of him in uniform. Unfortunately, Helmut left behind one daughter born through the Lebensborn Program after he was killed when his tank was attacked. Some who are interested in the history of that time have made vauge references to him online and there's a roster with his name on it on another website. I didn't know him, let alone his aunt my grandmother because she died young too in her mid fourties, so I'm not glorifying his life, but I feel he, like all others deserves to not be forgotten for his sacrifice. We all sacrifice something in life and must live with or die because of our choices.

please youtube, don't ban this song

Who cares if they do, we can always listen to it on our own whenever we want. I have various versions saved to my PC and phone, listen to them daily, even when driving. I blast songs like this before work in particular.

The first line in the first verse took me back to 1965 movie "Battle of the Bulge" w/Henry Fonda, Robert Shaw & James McArthur. Aside from WW2, Germany, as a whole, wrote some Rhythmic, Meaningful & Uplifting marches!

What sucks is that the Battle of the Bulge movie version (this same one) is just the first verse repeated. There are, I think, 4 other verses, and it's quite difficult to find the full version because TH-cam doesn't like it.

Napoleon said: "There are two powers in this world; the Sword and the Spirit, in the long run, the Sword is always defeated by the Spirit", that is why songs like this one are banned, they embody the immortal spirit of Germany. The lackeys of the conquering powers may ban all the books and songs they want but Time is against them. = Napoleon sagte: "Es gibt zwei Mächte auf dieser Welt; das Schwert und den Geist, auf lange Sicht wird das Schwert immer vom Geist besiegt“, deshalb sind Lieder wie dieses verboten, sie verkörpern den unsterblichen Geist Deutschlands. Die Lakaien der Eroberermächte mögen alle Bücher und Lieder verbieten, die sie wollen, aber die Zeit ist gegen sie.
