Der Abbau von Rechten ist nötig, | |||
So heißt es, | |||
Für die Bewahrung der Freiheit, | |||
Zum Schutze der Demokratie | |||
Vor sich selbst. | |||
Die Propaganda ist nötig zur Aufklärung | |||
Über die Machenschaften des Feinds. | |||
Die Überwachung ist nötig zur Sicherheit, | |||
Weil Gefahr auch im Inneren droht. | |||
Die Aufrüstung ist zur Verteidigung, | |||
Weil der Feind vor den Toren schon steht. | |||
Da müssen wir still sein | |||
Und dankbar, | |||
Dass sich Geschichte | |||
Nicht wiederholt. | |||
Nicht wortwörtlich.}} | |||

Reduction of rights is necessary, | |||
It is said, | |||
For the sake of freedom, | |||
To protect democracy | |||
From itself. | |||
Propaganda is necessary for clarification | |||
About the evil plans of the enemy. | |||
Surveillance is necessary for security | |||
Because perils come, too, from inside. | |||
Rearmament is for defense, | |||
As the foe stands in front of the gates. | |||
We thus must be silent | |||
And grateful | |||
That history | |||
Does not repeat itself. | |||
Not literally.}} | |||
