{Songtext zu „Olympische Hymne“}

{Strophe 1}
Völker! Seid des Volkes Gäste, kommt durch's offne Tor herein
Friede sei dem Völkerfeste, Ehre soll der Kampfspruch sein
Junge Kraft will Mut beweisen, heißes Spiel Olympia!
Deinen Glanz in Taten preisen, reines Ziel: Olympia!

{Strophe 2}
Vieler Länder Stolz und Blüte kam zum Kampfesfest herbei
Alles Feuer das da glühte, schlägt zusammen hoch und frei
Kraft und Geist naht sich mit Zagen, Opfergang Olympia!
Wer darf deinen Lorbeer tragen, Ruhmesklang: Olympia?

{Strophe 3}
Wie nun alle Herzen schlagen in erhobenem Verein
Soll in Taten und in Sagen Eidestreu das Höchste sein
Freudvoll sollen Meister siegen, Siegesfest Olympia!
Freude sei noch im Erliegen, Friedensfest: Olympia
Freudvoll sollen Meister siegen, Siegesfest Olympia!
Olympia! Olympia! Olympia!

Biography

One of the great composers of the Post-Romantic Era, Richard Strauss (1864-1949) is known for his tone poems such as Also Sprach Zarathustra, Till Eulenspiegel’s Merry Pranks, and Death and Transfiguration, as well as operas such as Der Rosenkavalier and Salome. Initially considered a retrograde composer from the dark ages of tonality, he was reappraised as a composer who stretched the tonal system to uncharted limits and presaged the musical developments of the 20th century.

Known for treating friends and acquaintances badly, Strauss was once described by the conductor Hans Knappertsbusch:

I knew him very well. I played cards with him every week for 40 years, and he was a pig.
