Hi !

I'm Bj�rn from Germany. I searched the internet for the English lyrics of the German
Song "Die Moorsoldaten" (= Peatbog soldiers), and finally came to this site. I can't
believe, that the song is called an Irish (or Celtic ?) traditional, because in fact, it was
created by prisoners in the NAZI CONCENTRATION CAMP B�rgermoor facing death.
It was composed by Rudi Goguel. Johann Esser and Wolfgang Langhoff wrote the lyrics
(in German of course).

Please see for example: www.voiceoftheturtle.org/dictionary/dict_p1.php#peatbog

I just wanted everybody to know that it's not a folk song or something.


Bye... Bj�rn


(PS.: ... the song's real origin...)
