" Auferstanden aus Ruinen" (German: [ˈaʊf(ʔ)ɛʁˌʃtandn̩ ʔaʊs ʁuˈiːnən]; 'Risen from the Ruins') was the national anthem of East Germany during its existence from 1949 to 1990. Background [ edit ]
Hanns Eisler, who would later go on to compose the East German national anthem "Auferstanden aus Ruinen", intentionally kept the composition of "Einheitsfrontlied" simple and easy to follow, so it could be sung by workers without much musical training. [4] In doing so, the song is quite march-like.
The verse form and the rhyme scheme are similar to both the "Deutschlandlied" and "Auferstanden aus Ruinen", the national anthem of East Germany. Accordingly, the three lyrics can be combined with the melodies.
This is a recomposition of the song but not a translation. However, the text should be changed. For example "Auferstanden aus Ruinen" doesn't simply mean "Risen from the ruins" but - much more powerful - "RESURRECTED from the ruins". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.52.154.205 (talk • contribs) 23:21, March 28, 2007
