Halle
Heinrich Heine
In the market-place of Halle
There stand two mighty lions:
O thou lion-pride of Halle,
How greatly art thou tamed!
In the market-place of Halle
There stands a mighty giant;
He hath a sword, yet never stirs,—
He's petrified with terror.
In the market-place of Halle
A mighty church is standing,
Where the Burschenschaft and the Landsmannschaft
Have plenty of room for praying.
