>William of Nassau, scion
Of a Dutch and ancient line,
I dedicate undying
Faith to this land of mine.
A prince am I undaunted,
Of Orange, ever free,
To the king of Spain I've granted
A lifelong loyalty.
>I've ever tried to live in
The fear of God's command
And therefore I've been driven,
From people, home, and land,
But God, I trust, will rate me
His willing instrument
And one day reinstate me
Into my government.
>Let no despair betray you,
My subjects true and good.
The Lord will surely stay you
Though now you are pursued.
He who would live devoutly
Must pray God day and night
To throw His power about me
As champion of your right.
>Life and my all for others
I sacrificed, for you!
And my illustrious brothers
Proved their devotion too.
Count Adolf, more's the pity,
Fell in the Frisian fray,
And in the eternal city
Awaits the judgement day.

Because I love Europe and I'm listening to the Dutch anthem and though castrated by modernity the spirit of my ancestors - conquerors, inventors, soldiers, civilization builders - still burn inside me.
Listen with me

fake translation.

>>130269659
I noticed that, actually. I pulled it from Wiki. Which may have removed' I am of Dutch blood because that's highly politically incorrect.
>William of Nassau
am I, of German/Dutch blood.
Loyal to the fatherland
I will remain until I die.
A prince of Orange
am I, free and fearless.
The king of Spain
I have always honoured
Here, though: In the original Dutch version Prince William states that he is of Duitse bloed. In this version that has been translated as being of Dutch blood. However, Duitse comes from Deutsch (German) which is different from being a Netherlander (especially to Netherlanders themselves). Instead, Duitse bloed refers to William's German background as Count of Nassau, an ancient principality in Germany.

It's Willem, not William, Murricafriend.

> also accepted large numbers of Jews from Spain
no wonder wild speculation and collapse came to the Netherlands first

This. Let it all burn but leave us the Dutchies.

thanks senpai

Duitschen bloed, just means that we are German. Just like how the Luxembourgish are from German blood as well. It doesn't mean we're raped by High German tribes, but we're just one big family with several dialects and languages.

Diets and Duits find their origin in the middle ages. Back then it was Dietsc and Duutsc (meaning us the Germanic people)
Franks already used these words in 3rd century AD
