| Thoughts are free, they sing | |
| it out loud, the prisoners -- | |
| of their own free thoughts. | |
| Gedachten zijn vrij | Gedanken sind frei, |
| zingen de gevangenen -- | singen die Gefangenen -- |
| van hun gedachten. | ihrer Gedanken. |

The lyrics "Die Gedanken sind frei" have been published in 1780 and set to music for the first time in Bern, at the beginning of the 19th century, and included in the "Lieder der Brienzer Mädchen". Almost a century later, in 1898, Gustav Mahler set the text to music.
