Klanga Lyrics

Two thousand years ago,
Two thousand years ago,
Two thousand years ago,
The proudest boast was
"civis romanus sum."
Today,
In the world of freedom,
The proudest boast is
"Ich bin ein Berliner."

"Ich bin ein Berliner."

Berlin,

"Ich bin ein Berliner."

Freedom
Has many difficulties
And democracy is not perfect,
But we have never had to put a wall up to keep our people in,

I know of no town,
No city,
That has been besieged for 18 years
That still lives with the vitality
And the force
And the hope
And the determination
Of the city of West Berlin.

"Ich bin ein Berliner."
