It was never released on CD (as much as I know). The song was written between 1780 and 1800, at the time of the French Revolution.

C G7 C Die Gedanken sind frei! Wer kann sie er-raten? G7 C Sie fliegen vorbei wie naechtliche Schatten. G7 C G7 C Kein Mensch kann sie wissen, kein Jaeger er-schiessen F C G7 C mit Pulver und Blei. Die Ge-danken sind frei! [Thoughts are free! Who can guess them? They fly along like nightly treasures No man can know them No hunter can shoot them With powder and lead Thoughts are free!] C G7 C Ich denke, was ich will und was mich be-gluecket, G7 C doch alles in der Still und wie es sich schicket. G7 C G7 C Mein Wunsch und Be-gehren kann niemand ver-wehren, F C G7 C es bleibet da-bei: Die Ge-danken sind frei! [I think about what I want and what makes me happy But everything quietly, and just how it comes. To my wish and desire Nobody can oppose, It stays this way: Thoughts are free!] C G7 C Und sperrt man mich ein im finsteren Kerker, G7 C das alles sind rein ver-gebliche Werke, G7 C G7 C denn meine Ge-danken zer-reissen die Schranken F C G7 C und Mauern ent-zwei: Die Ge-danken sind frei! [And if they lock me in a dark dungeon That is something that can be forgiven Cause my thoughts Tear up the bars And walls. Thoughts are free!] C G7 C Ich liebe den Wein, mein Maedchen vor allen, G7 C sie tut mir allein am be-sten ge-fallen. G7 C G7 C Ich bin nicht al-leine bei meinem Glas Weine, F C G7 C mein Maedchen da-bei: Die Ge-danken sind frei! [I love wine, my girl most of all, Only me she pleases best I am not alone With my glass of wine My girl is with me: Thoughts are free!] C G7 C Drum will ich auf immer den Sorgen ent-sagen C G7 C und will mich auch nimmer mit Grillen mehr plagen. G7 C G7 C Man kann ja im Herzen stets lachen und scherzen F C G7 C und denken da-bei: Die Ge-danken sind frei! [That's why I will never worry anymore And I will never tease myself with whims anymore Because in one's heart One can keep laughing and joking While thinking Thoughts are free!] [email protected]
