Here's something you'll understand:

Eins, zwei, drei, vier, fünf, sechs, sieben, acht, neun, aus

Alle warten auf das Licht
fürchtet euch fürchtet euch nicht
die Sonne scheint mir aus den Augen
sie wird heut Nacht nicht untergehen
und die Welt zählt laut bis zehn

Eins
Hier kommt die Sonne
Zwei
Hier kommt die Sonne
Drei
Sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Vier
Hier kommt die Sonne

Die Sonne scheint mir aus den Händen
kann verbrennen, kann euch blenden
wenn sie aus den Fäusten bricht
legt sich heiss auf das Gesicht
sie wird heut Nacht nicht untergehen
und die Welt zählt laut bis zehn

Eins
Hier kommt die Sonne
Zwei
Hier kommt die Sonne
Drei
Sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Vier
Hier kommt die Sonne
Fünf
Hier kommt die Sonne
Sechs
Hier kommt die Sonne
Sieben
Sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Acht, neun
Hier kommt die Sonne

Die Sonne scheint mir aus den Händen
kann verbrennen, kann dich blenden
wenn sie aus den Fäusten bricht
legt sich heiss auf dein Gesicht
legt sich schmerzend auf die Brust
das Gleichgewicht wird zum Verlust
lässt dich hart zu Boden gehen
und die Welt zählt laut bis zehn

Eins
Hier kommt die Sonne
Zwei
Hier kommt die Sonne
Drei
Sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Vier
Und wird nie vom Himmel fallen
Fünf
Hier kommt die Sonne
Sechs
Hier kommt die Sonne
Sieben
Sie ist der hellste Stern von allen
Acht , neun
Hier kommt die Sonne

There is no reason - in my opinion - to glorify any promilitaric politics...

Not effectively nor correctly I'm afraid.
Anyone in my family who could have taught it correctly were two generations back.

But the troll who made this thread:

In honesty, I'm better off sticking to English.
*chuckle*
I haven't picked up enough German to be able to hold a conversation worth attempting.
Kinda like the smidgens and bits of Latin I picked up over the years (Nox aeternus en pax, as per a drawing I did) and such.
So what little of it I grabbed is pretty slim.
Kinda like the Czech my best friend was trying to teach me.

"German Troll week, I guess."

I asked the last alleged German Newbie if their appearance was related to the Der Speigel article in which FR.com was featured, but the last one was zotted before I ever got an answer. If these Newbies are coming as a result of FReeperdom being publicized accross the pond, I say we give them a little more latitude to figger out their positions...maybe they'll even learn something.

Did you see that large post I pinged you to last Sunday?

I'm cheesing off the Libs! HEH! HEH! HEH!

THEN I'll use that on troll threads...

LOL!
I do know some wonderful insults and sayings in other languages, you get a good feelfor certain cultures by how expressive and colorful their insults are, but I doubt that some trolls would like to know that their sister is looking very desirable.
