Wir zogen in das Feld [Landsknecht song][+English translation] 

Landsknechtsongs

When you're fighting for the Emperor in 1521 in Italy and your mother language is German but your mercenary captain is Italian.

What many people forget, is that German mercenaries spoke many languages in order to do their work. That song would be great a advertisement while marching through Italian citys.

As an Italian, I really like how "a la mi presente, al vostra signori" sounds. The best way to rend it would be "[as] for me, I'm ready, at your [service] [my] Lord". They're nice lines, I didn't expect that in a German song!

"A la mi presente" .. for a moment thought they were talking Spanish. My heart stopped Love the Italian words!

As an italian, I am fascinated by this song half german and half Old Italian

Diese Mischung aus Deutsch und Latein klingt wirklich großartig!

Gott mit uns Brüder!

A la mi presente Al vostra signori!

Love the old song because back then people make song to be sung not for pure profit

Italy 🤝 Germany France : 😳

Imagine an empire with german organization and Italian creativity.

I love seeing all the similarities between english and German in these videos. It literally sounds like they say " we are coming for benevent"

Gott mit uns! Sehr schön, direkt zu meiner Sammlung hinzufügen^_^ Schönen Sonntag Kameraden!

Che bella canzone! We love you, Germans! 🇮🇹❤🇩🇪

Gute Deutsche Lieder, gute Kultur und Tradition. Viele grüße aus Spanien noch einmmal xD

I believe the Italian part is "all'armi, presente, alla vostra signoria" (take arms, present arms, for his lordship)

The Renaissance and the Italian Wars is definitely one of the most underrated conflicts in history. The rise of pike and shot, decline of feudal knights and heavy cavalry, the widespread usage mercenaries and their mutinious sacking of cities, intricate Italian diplomacy and the Reformation in Germany definitely convinced me to think its a fascinating time period. Also the multicultural troops that was present in the army makes such a great impact in linguistics especially seen in this authentic song!

Ein echt fantastisches Lied😍 Ich höre es rauf und runter😊

Quando sento questa sensazione di musica tedesca celestiale mi sembra di quasi volare musica eccezionale emozionante strabiliante grazie dott Ludwig grazie di esistere.

"Auf Spanisch kommuniziere ich mit Gott, auf Italienisch mit Frauen, auf Französisch mit Männern und auf Deutsch mit meinem Pferd" © Karl V. P.s: Ich persönlich verstehe es so - Spanisch ist die Sprache des Gebets, Italienisch ist die Sprache der Liebe, Französisch ist die Sprache der Diplomatie, Deutsch ist die Sprache des Krieges und der Eroberung)

Gib mir ne 20 Minuten und ich hab die Lyrics für immer auswendig gelernt

Großartig 🍀🇩🇪💯 Danke Kamerad 🍀

Man, that comment section gives me hope for future. Glad to see so many German patriots on the comments.

Ty so much for translation in romanian Ludwig, big respect for you and your country!

This is good... I really wish this type of music would replace the "music" of today.

Der Mix aus Deutsch und Italienisch macht es so viel besser :D

“A LA MI PRESENTE AL VOSTRA SIGNIORI🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️”

Ins Feeeeeld Kameraden 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪

I find German history incredibly fascinating because the Germans and Germany were always there, but at the same time not and always different like a shapeshifter. Stupid oversimplified: Rejects Roman annexation - Germanic Tribes defeat Rome, are often slapped in the face, but Rome generally fails to subdue them Creates an empire that wasn't really an empire but also was an empire and somehow lived for over 1000 years - very special and unique The Kingdom of Prussia and hundreds of German States gangsta! Before being defeated by one of history's greatest generals. defeats the French, unites into a new empire Get a colonial empire Fights 80% of the world alone and almost won.. Is treated badly Comeback as Villian, fights the whole world and only lost because of own mistakes.. Gets divided again Reunites again and is not allowed to be strong again. Also a few German inventions: - Incandescent lamps (Heinrich Göbel 1854) - The Telephone (Johann Philip Reis 1859) - The dynamo and tram (Werner von Siemens 1866) - The 35 mm camera (Oskar Barnack 1925) - Nuclear fission and atomic bomb (Otto Hahn - emigrated to the Americans during Nazi Germany, of course.. Are they lucky that we exist - 1938) - The ship chart (Jürgen Dethloff and Helmut Gröttrub 1969) - Periodic Table (Julius Luther Meyer 1864) - Jeans (Levi Strauss 1873) - The recorder, player - with which the first films were possible (Emil Berliner 1887) - The Aspirin - Which all great athletes felt used to relieve pain, And which saved countless lives (Felix Hoffmann, Klausi Alder.. 1879) - Spark plug (Robert Bosch 1902) - Thermos flask (Reinhold Burger 1903) - the toothpaste (Ottomar Heinsius von Mayenburg) - The coffee filter (Melitta Bentz) - Cassette recorder (Fritz Pfleumer 1928) - Teabag (Adolf Rambold 1929) - The jet engines - Essential for all jets and rockets + First war rockets V1, V2 of the Nazis (Hans von Ohain 1929) - First rocket (general) - The helicopter (Heinrich Focke 1936) - The first car (Carl Benz - With honorary Schnauzer - 1886) - First Computer (Konrad Zuse 1941) - First 3D film (during the Nazi period) - Fanta (Yes the Fanta.. Also during the Nazi era) - The typewriter (Peter Mitterhofer - 1869) - NASA (actually the US buys thousands of German engineers to build NASA because they can't do it themselves) Well, as you saw, we changed the world with our inventions many times. Where we would be today without the German thinking. Germany the land of poets and thinkers - that's how it was known The problem is that many Germans are not proud of their country and blood, unfortunately also because they were brought up that way. Because if you say anything to that effect, you will be called a Nazi. The problem is that many people don't have the right deep historical knowledge that people need to understand the world and and that only Hitler himself and his party were Nazis. Almost no German was a Nazi during the Nazi era. Also, any historian will tell you that the Allies, created Nazi Germany and WWII because of the unfair Versailles Treaty. Germans were so depressed that it is unimaginable for us. They were seen as evil around the world as they were blamed for everything in World War I. And when you have 3 kids at home, no job, money is worthless and no food and water you will follow anyone who fixes it. Because that's what the Nazis did in the beginning - they fixed everything and gave the Germans hope again. No German at the time could have known that Hitler was so crazy. It's not as easy as we always think. Even in the Wehrmacht, only a few liked the Nazis. They were German soldiers dying for the country. the general German soldier, like my grandfather, had nothing to do with the Nazis and the Holocaust. You must consider this one army fought against the rest of the world. And if we are honest: what kind of "peace" could the general German soldier expect? What could have they expect after all the Nazi crimes and everyone thought that all Germans were evil Nazis. What "Peace" could they expect. These soldiers fought for their lives and German people against a planet. If even many of Hitler's own generals like Rommel (legend) or Stauffenberg knew that he was not quite right in the head.. Then the normal people knew that even more. Many were manipulated and could do nothing about it. The Nazis were a small parasite not the Germans. You can imagine the Nazis like a natural dark Parasite Rising from the suffering of the Germans. And the 'Problem' is that Germans are People who have a very special work and perfectionism mentality. That's not a weak enemy. Calling all German soldiers Nazis is like calling all American soldiers democrats because they were in power. We should be prouder of ourselves, after all, Germany has repeatedly fought against the entire world, one time under a bad regime. We made this modern world possible and maintain a reputation for perfection and quality. The hard-working German with perfection in his blood! Or rather, we once had this reputation. Today there is no longer a country of poets and thinkers. We are still occupied by the USA. And people are manipulated and have no prospects. A dark age. What I also find very interesting is that the Germanic people spread very far and are therefore the ancestors of many other people. Therefore, historians are not entirely sure how German the Germanic peoples were, but since they were the first to speak German and also created English, they were already German. In addition, the Germans were also the ancestors of the Vikings means Germanic mythology is almost identical to Norse mythology. Actually the same. Thanks for listening 🥂

I'm from Argentina, and my great grandparents were italians, but I love German march songs. I wonder where did I get that from...

Hab leider nicht früher von diesen gehört. Danke dir!

Awesome song, greetings from Ukraine, Gott mit uns!

I love Landsknecht songs

Sowas müsste im Radio laufen

Wahrscheinlich das beste Landsknechtlied, das ich bisher gehört habe.

Respect from Turkey 🙌🏼🇹🇷🇹🇷

Elite European infantry!

Es ist gigantisch. Die Landshuter Hochzeit ist gestern geendet und die Landsknechte haben das auch immer gesungen!!!!❤❤❤

A strong stout song that motivates even today! Awesome 👍❤️ illustration too!😁🌹🖤❤️💛

Why this inspiring af? (Im drunk at 1am and crying)

Love how the refrain sounds both German and Italian-Roman-Papal

Holy Roman Empire 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇮🇹🇮🇹😍😍

Впн тяжёлые времена!!!

Freu mich schon aufs Frundsbergfest, da werden die Lieder wieder gesungen

When i listen this i get goosebumps.. Meeting on the field my brothers..

Only 15th century Kids remember when this banger dropped.

Liebe das Latein (oder Altitalienisch) in diesem Lied!

I was watching the Old Songs playlist and can now say that I have finished both the Old Songs and Landsknecht playlists. Now just hundreds more wonderful songs to get through.

when a German soldier comes across an italian officier

a la mi presente

I knew this, and already liked the video, but thank's Kaiser for the reminder

Klingt sehr gut

Now I want to go take a zweihander and fight against the Vermintide for the honor of the Empire.

As a person mainly inherited Western Europa blood, this song makes me tear at the thought of these Landsknecht triumphant victories, and the honor alongside the others with them. 💎💎⚜️⚜️

The spirit never died! The immortal knight!

mixing Italian and German...a historical document, truly European in character...German peasants who fled poverty to become mercenaries in Italy to make some coin

There's a french march called "Kirye des gueux" wich has the same melody

Beautiful

Botho Lukas Chor: fantastique!

As an argentinian descendant of germans and italians, I can feel this very deep and powerfull

Richtig nice

Questa canzone mi fa impazzire. Troppo bella. Evviva i Lanzichenecchi

Estou pronto assuas ordens, vossa senhoria

ICH LIEBE LANDSKNECHTLIEDER !!!!! Vielen Dank :)

Ich liebe dieses Lied sooo sehr

Come on Brothers and Sisters, clean your Armour and Blades for now we must again march to save our dear Fatherland, Motherland, the home of our ancestors, home of our culture. Let us restore what was lost. FOR GOD AND FATHERLAND

Спасибо ! Danke !

german(discipline)+italian(holy)=unmatchable

Botho Lukas Chor..,sehr gut!

Pretty sure there is a french version of this song called "La kyrie des gueux" awsome song by the way

Von Thailand aus werden wir gemeinsam voranschreiten. 🇹🇭❤️🇩🇪

Jeder Upload ein Schatz

A Landsknecht song with an Italian chorus. Wait. That's illegal.

Europe is definitely the best continent

Songs like this one are inspiring me to finally get around to reading my copy of "Simplicissimus"! 👍😎🎶🎶

Why is german war music so GOOD

Virgin stab vs Chad slash

If the reincarnation really exists, I wonder if you are not the reincarnation of one of these noble knights, such as one we can see in the engravings you post and which always accompany the music. Beautiful! 💓💗❤💖🎶♥💖💐💐💐

Fun fact: in france we have a version of this song called "le kyrie des gueux"

Globalisation and multiculturalism sadly destroy national identity. I am so glad channels like Dr. Ludwig exist, so we can continue saving and spreading the words of our ancestors 🙏🏻

I love papal states because I'm a roman catholic

wunderschön

Everybody gangsta until the Landsknechte start singing

When your zogin’ in the field

Das ist fantastic

Now my pencil is *A LANCE*
