The national anthem of Germany is entitled 'Das Lied der Deutschen', which translates to 'Song of the Germans'. The original lyrics were written by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben. Only the third verse is used ('Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit' - 'Unity, justice and freedom').

'Das Lied der Deutschen' or 'Das Deutschlandlied.'

The German national anthem is called Das Lied Der Deutschen (song of the Germans), aka Das Deutschlandlied. The music was written by Josef Haydn, the words by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben. Only the 3rd verse is sung:

Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit

Für das deutsche Vaterland!

Danach lasst uns alle streben

Brüderlich mit Herz und Hand!

Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit

Sind des Glückes Unterpfand -

Blüh im Glanze dieses Glückes,

Blühe, deutsches Vaterland!

Unity and Right and Freedom

For the German Fatherland!

Let us all aspire to this

Brotherly with heart and hand!

Unity and Right and Freedom

Are prerequisites to happiness -

Flourish in the splendour of this happiness

Flourish, German Fatherland

The song is also known as "Deutschland, Deutschland uber alles" from the first line of the first verse. The melody was written as the national anthem of the Austrian Empire by Haydn in 1797 and served as such until 1918. The Germans took it over (with new words) in 1922.
