Two thousand years ago
Two thousand years ago
Two thousand years ago
The proudest boast was civis Romanus sum
So today in the world of freedom the proudest boast is
Ich bin ein Berliner
Let them come to Berlin
Berlin
Let them come to Berlin
Freedom has many difficulties and democracy is not perfect
But we have never had to put a wall up to keep our people in
I know of no town, no city, that has been besieged for 18 years that still lives with the vitality and the force, and the hope, and the determination of the city of West Berlin
Let them come to Berlin
