Well, okay....ours can be found
here. (Click on "Melodie als Midi-File, I hope it works). Composed by W.A. Mozart, by the way, so it is actually quite nice.
Land der Berge
Land der Berge, Land am Strome,
Land der Äcker, Land der Dome,
Land der Hämmer, zukunftsreich!
Heimat bist du großer Söhne,
Volk begnadet für das Schöne,
Viel gerühmtes Österreich.
Heiß umfehdet, wild umstritten,
liegst den Erdteilen du inmitten,
einem starken Herzen gleich.
Hast seit frühen Ahnentagen,
hoher Sendung Last getragen.
Viel gerühmtes Österreich.
...I didn't know the last verse by heart, so I guess that it would be cheating to put it here (are you bored already?)
Well, I am bored so I'll even give you a (vague) translation:
Land of Mountains
Land of Mountains, land of streams,
Land of acres, land of cathedrals,
Land of gavels, rich of future!
You are th home of great sons,
your people are gifted for the beautiful (things),
much vaunted Austria.
Hotly fought for, wildly contended,
you lie in the middle of the contnents,
like a strong heart.
Since the early ancestor's days you have
carried the burden of high (important) sending.
Much vaunted Austria.
...Still not asleep? No worries, I'll leave you now!
