Feindwärts knattert die Fahne;
Wind aus Ostland sie schlägt,
Düster am Speer sie sich regt.
Feindwärts führen unsere Wege,
Hinter uns zerbrochene Stege.
Heimat, weit und so fern.
Tiefschwarz reckt sich vom Himmel
Drohender Wolke Arm,
Ruft uns zum letzten Alarm.
Schatten kreuzen ihre Wege,
Hinter uns zerbrochene Stege.
Heimat, weit und so fern.
Schneeweiß streckt sich ein Linnen
Nebel ob Wälder und Land,
Ob Straßen und Auen gespannt.
Schneeweiß schimmern unsere Wege,
Hinter uns zerbrochene Stege.
Heimat, weit und so fern.
Blutrot steigt dort die Sonne,
Färbet der Wälder Saum,
Endiger Ruhe und Traum.
Blutrot färbt sie unsere Wege,
Hinter uns zerbrochene Stege.
Heimat, weit und so fern.
Guten Morgen, Kameraden!
Güten tag
Guten morgen,freund
Wie schön, aufwachen zu können und schon ein Freikorps-Lied zu hören!
❤
Mein Lieblingslied des Freikorps. Ich habe es in letzter Zeit so oft gehört, also es interessant ist, daß Sie es heute hochgeladen haben! Danke!
Tief Schwarz, Schneeweiß, Blutrot.
Die Fahne des Kaiserreichs.
Diese 3 Farben sind auch die 3 heiligen Farben der Germanen. Schwarz und Weiß sind vergleichbar mit dem Ying und Yang, Zerstören und Schaffen etc. Rot ist die Farbe des Blutes, also des Lebens.
Wunderbares Lied.

Leider nutzen wir die Flagge nicht mehr
A picture of great men and a great song to go with it❤ Thanks dr Ludwig 😊 Have the best weekend everyone 😊
Hallo guten Morgen. Endlich zuhause und Wochenende. Sehr gute Musik 🎶🎶😎. Ich wünsche allen eine gute Zeit.🍀
Dear Dr. Ludwig: I don't know where you find these gems of songs, but...I love them. It gives me hope as a first generation American of German parents. They were young in Germany during WWII and told us many stories of their lives during that time. They immigrated to the US in 1958, and retired in Germany to live out their golden years. I could not have asked for better parents (RIP). It is like there is always a message to me in what you provide. Thanks! ❤🩹
🍻
Another first generation here in the states from a German father who passed in 2008.
And I thank for your little story, that always fills those videos with life and interesting fates!
Schöne Grüsse aus Ungarn .
Schönes Freikorpslied
I've been trying to find a video of this song with good english lyrics for WEEKS, thanks Doctor.
Same bro
Always good to hear more Freikorps songs!
Hab noch nach der passenden Motivation gesucht, um in die Bibliothek zu gehen und an meiner Stexarbeit zu schreiben. Sehr gut, Ludwig!

Vielen Dank für den Upload ❤ Sehr Berührend ❤
The Freikorps are what I consider as history's forgotten army. (They were created by Friedrick the Great and lasted until WWII, they were made up of rag-tag mercenaries looking for a job, or captured troops.) Though they are criticized by modern social media, they will forever have a place of respect in my heart as they saved western Europe from communism until the end of WWII. Gott segne die Freikorps! ⚫⚪🔴

nah, don't you worry about them, they cannot be forgotten, the same as you cannot kill an idea. just wait and the songs can be heard once more,or again, just now in nightcore and 180bpm...and probably not on yt
Gott mit uns!
Вы преувеличиваете их роль в сдерживании коммунизма, красная армия спокойно могла дойти до ламанша
@@Идиот2.0-ъ9т i think you confuse freikorps with wehrmacht. it was the "army" in the revolutionary movement, that later lead to national socialism. there were alot of streetfighting, a fierce revolutionary battle...and commis got smoked
@@Идиот2.0-ъ9т No they couldn´t stop coping over the fact that your communist empire did fell as ours did.
Faster than what I was expecting! And with English lyrics that don't sound like it was google translated lol. Keep doing what you're doing man
the freikorps is a very interesting part of germany that i feel like rarely ever gets any attention, nice song!
Ich wundere mich immer wieder, woher Sie all diese faszinierenden Lieder nehmen, noch dazu in Moll. Ich kannte dieses Lied nicht. Finde es wunderschön.
Vielen Dank und ich wünsche Ihnen, lieber Herr Doktor, sowie all Ihren Hörern ein ganz gemütliches Wochenende und sende viele lbe Grüße aus Montréal, Qc, Canada

The aesthetic goes hard
(2nd comment moment)
I now just noticed their sleeve insignia. These men belonged to the Freikorps group known as Marine-Brigade Ehrhardt. Who's namesake was lead by a Hermann Ehrhardt
Don't know when this was taken, but my guess was during the Kapp-Lüttwitz Putsch, or the Kapp Putsch

The album if anyone is curious is known as Lieder der Freikorps. I've made a complete version which I'll link in this comment
ruclips.net/p/PLgm_G8awwotMTd5rwxXCOzAAZ1sPgYnpX
Some of the videos got taken down unfortunately. The album is incomplete as of 31/12/23
@@Real-Agent-Meta Haben Sie zufällig genauere Informationen zu diesem Album. Ich suche seit Monaten vergeblich nach Möglichkeiten die Entstehungsgeschichte dieser Liedversionen nachzuvollziehen. Vielen Dank im Voraus!
@@eliasburow9634 Leider weiß ich auch nichts über diese Lieder. Das Einzige, was ich weiß, ist, dass sie vor sehr langer Zeit hergestellt wurden, denn wenn man die statische Aufladung hört, kann man sie hören
Dies gilt auch für eine andere Reihe von Liedern, die von einer Gruppe namens Wanderjugend Gibor komponiert wurden, aber es gibt mehr Informationen dazu und sie stammen aus dem Jahr 1990
Ein sehr sehr schönes Muskivideo, auch das Lied hört sich sehr schön an 👍🎺📀🙏👂🎥🇩🇪🎹🎶👏🥁📻🪕🎵📽️👌🎬🎞️🎙️📯📼🎸🎤🎻🎧💿
Say what you will about the Germans in the thirties or in WWII, They were very heroic, brave, Noble, and patriotic: songs like This prove it - The Germans, even For the time compose the most Heroic, patriotic, and beautiful Music, this could be well played in Latin America or elsewhere in the Spanish - Speaking world, the riff / Stumming of the guitar: Pretty Hispanic [For a German battle Hymn], I think we need heroes like The Freikorps more than ever
¡Long live the freikorps!
Why has freikorps been so popular lately? Ive been seeing it pop up quite a bit between you, sternau, and a few other people i follow. But ive only started hearing them this past few months
Catchy songs like Freikorp voran, cool aesthetics and after the 2020 events in the US and recent incidents in France combined with rampant decadence/corruption i think we are reminded a lot of the wiemar period.
So schön
I've listened to this via other videos a lot today and now Ludwig makes a video of this
Coincidence?
Good Morning Dr.Ludwig and friends 😉
Thank you and cheers 👋 😉

Thanks , Freikorps❤
(English lyrics that fit the music better and rhyme a little. Not exactly 1:1 but easier to sing along with)
Forward, our banners are flying,
Winds from the East make them sway,
Dismal, they stir on the way.
Forward, our paths keep on winding,
Broken bridges all lie behind us,
Homeland - so far away...
Deep black, stretching the heavens,
Smoke curls a menacing arm,
Calling the final alarm,
Shadows, up ahead are converging,
Behind us, the bridges submerging,
Homeland - so far away...
Snow-white stretches the linen,
Fog clouding forests and fields,
Roads, that the pale mist conceals,
Snow-white are the paths that implore us,
Broken bridges all lie behind us,
Homeland - so far away...
Blood-red rises the sunlight,
Dyeing the edge of the trees,
Ending the notions of peace,
Blood-red is the sunlight infront us,
Broken bridges all lie behind us,
Homeland - so far away...
Da geht das Herz auf❤
No commie no nazi ❤️
It's best song of freikorps😃🎼🎶🎵
Hey Dr. Ludwig, Thanks for another great Freikorps song, I have been listening to your music for about 3 years and was wondering how your channel copes with the strict " No hate speech and or Nazi promotion" protocols of RUclips. Many songs have been disappearing that are German cause of those apparent reasons however most Soviet songs and others stay up, so I was just curious since some other songs you had such as Funkerlied and Erika have had to have been removed on this channel how you deal with it.
Also is there no pushback from any group of German youtubers so that you can post it. Cause what youtube does not realize is that nothing that derives from Nazism is original and the music just went more mainstream in Weltkreig Zwei? It just makes me question how there has not been anything done about it.
How RUclips acted is highly illegal and super arrogant, as they do not even have a real support where you can talk to a person. The problem is in fact not RUclips from California, but the headquarters in Hamburg, Germany. They work together with the Antonio Amadeu Stiftung, which is a leftradical organisation that wants to censor such songs and many other things. If you would sue RUclips, you would probably win, but it costs a lot of time and money to do so for a single song and it would only count for your channel.
That's why those songs get attacked on German channels, but foreign ones might be able to upload Erika etc.
What we did is trial and error. We uploaded these songs and it took us years to find out exactly what causes a strike. Because RUclips doesn't care about its creators and didn't just tell us with which songs they got a problem.
However we know now quite well what causes a strike and what is safe. That's why our channels still exist^^
So the only way to change all that again would be a change in German society. But the mainstream is very woke now and they hate everything what we love.
Can you do the WesterwaldLied and Wenn die Soldaten ?
I already uploaded them years ago, they were my most watched videos. Then RUclips started to strike them for "hatespeech" and do so especially on German channels. I can't risk it anymore.
@@dr.ludwig I was already a subscriber to your old channel, I loved your work, I think it's a real shame that RUclips considers it to be hate speech, "WesterwaldLied", "Wenn die Soldaten" and "FunkerLied" were my favourites
Yes ofc they had to attack the best ones... I hope this injustice will end in the future.
i dont understand why der michal songs are on youtube but not app music
its not fair i pay the same
yeah try my favorite sogn
Who sings The song?
Elbert Hasselmann (best-known version)
Название песни?
Is this really a Freikorps song? The Freikorps were a right-wing militia in post-World War I Germany who fought against Communists and leftists within Germany, but the line "Heimat, weit und so fern" evokes soldiers fighting for their country in a foreign land. Could this have been a WWI soldiers' song later adopted by the Freikorps?
The Freikorps also fought in the Baltic states, to which those songs usually refer:
"Diese Freikorps bekämpften im Auftrag des Rates der Volksbeauftragten und der Reichsregierung die linksradikalen Aufstände und sicherten die Grenzen im Osten des Deutschen Reiches. Sie kämpften 1919 auch im Baltikum mit zeitweiliger Unterstützung Großbritanniens gegen vordringende sowjetrussische Truppen sowie gegen die zuerst mit den Deutschen verbündeten Esten und Letten."
These Freikorps fought the radical left uprisings on behalf of the Council of People's Representatives and the Reich government and secured the borders in the east of the German Reich. In 1919 they also fought in the Baltic States, with temporary support from Great Britain, against advancing Soviet Russian troops and against the Estonians and Latvians, who were initially allied with the Germans.

Is that hitler behind the smiling freikorp guy
No XD
Bruh
First
No offence, but the song itself seems to sound quite idiotic. 3 stanzas are attributed to the black-white-red flag, and that's ok. However, what we are left with is as follows:
- there is a group of men;
- they are on the offensive in foreign lands, their homeland is far away;
- they have no way back (burnt bridges);
- they are desperate, this is their last fight (letzten Alarm);
- !! their enemy is in the West (first two lines of the song).
Who can these men be?
Freikorps fighters? Doubtfully. Bolsheviks in the Baltic come from the East. For the Freikorps fighters in Germany proper the homeland is not so far away. Moreover, they probably did not plan to die. And they definitely had other prospects or "ways back".
German troops in WW1? Maybe. But why the burnt bridges? The homeland was not so far away still in the Western front.
Landsknechts? Doubtfully also, anachronistic flag in 3 stanzas.
Finally, the alleged author was awarded some French honours after WW2, would these have be awarded if he had such revanchist and a bit blood-thirsty sentiment? It might have happened, however, still doubtfully.
So the song itself does not make much sense, at least to me. It is rather a weird mix of imagery and sentiment from German history, perhaps, written some decades after the WW2
The Freikorps consist of men who came (also) from the western front in France, back into a country where traitors like communists and ofc the allied troups caused massive problems and a destabilizing of society. While at the same time, the border in the east and the Baltic Germans were threatened by Polish expansion desires and the Russian civil war. So many of the Freikorps men who fought inside of Germany voluntarily also joined a march to the east to support the Germans there. And regions like East Prussia, so far away from the German core regions were seen as remote and far away. The Eastern European landscape looks very different to the soft hills and mixed forests of Central Europe.
The broken bridges are probably symbolic. The government of Germany was hostage of the victorious western powers and was not able to support the Freikorps troups and yet they fought on alone.
@dr.ludwig , perhaps, we should differentiate the Freikorps operation in the Baltic from the Freikorps in Germany proper. As to the latter, there were civil war-like conditions. In those one the participants usually do not have feelings about "broken bridges", "last battle", etc. Their plans usually are to "take the country back", "smash the enemy", "protect the homeland", and so on. They have a quite politicised agenda. This song is definitely not about that.
If the song was about the Baltic theatre, still, the author would not have written about "the enemy in the West, against whom we fight carrying our battle flag". The war in the West was over, no veteran would want to "try again" in 1919 or 1920, this would be an insane opinion. There is not anti-French sentiment in "Nachts steht Hunger" or "Die Grenzwacht hielt im Osten", which represent a quite detailed description of the Baltic Freikorps experience.
These things should not be, and would not have been mixed at the time. This gives me a sentiment of Soviet "Cossack" songs. These were written from the 50-s onwards to venerate the Cossacks in a party-approved manner. These songs were just a hodge-podge of modern sentiment being wrongly transposed on people who lived way back in time and about whom the authors knew nothing about.
These songs had catchy lyrics, good imagery, etc., but are not Cossack songs, as this one, as I presume, is not a Freikorps song. Just a modern reflection on a heroic past, with a pinch of political predisposition.
It is often attributed to Karl Seidelmann, who focused mostly on the folk-material. Maybe, this is a remake of a song about the Landsknechts, this could explain some of the historical discrepancies, definitely would have better explained the spear, the vector of battle, the sentiment of a person without a way back
