| Hymne :
| Oben am jungen Rhein
Lehnet sich Liechtenstein
An Alpenhöh'n.
Dies liebe Heimatland,
Das teure Vaterland,
Hat Gottesweise Hand
Für uns erseh'n.
Hoch lebe Liechtenstein
Blühend am jungen Rhein,
Glücklich und treu.
Hoch leb' der Fürst vom Land,
Hoch unser Vaterland,
Durch Bruderliebe-Band
Vereint und frei.
-----------------------
Traduction en Anglais :
-----------------------
High above the young Rhine
Lies Liechtenstein, resting
On Alpine heights.
This beloved homeland,
This dear fatherland
Was chosen for us by
God's wise hand.
Long live Liechtenstein,
Blossoming on the young Rhine,
Happy and faithful !
Long live the Prince of the Land,
Long live our fatherland,
United by brotherly bonds and free !
