The Bozner Bergsteigerlied (English: Bozen mountaineer song) is one of the two unofficial hymns of the South Tyroleans, the other being the Andreas-Hofer-Lied. Its lyrics were composed in 1926 by Karl Felderer in Moos am Ritten to the melody of an old Tyrolean craftsmen's song. At the time of its composition, the Italianization of South Tyrol campaign of the Italian fascists had reached its height, effecting a prohibition of all names related to "Südtirol" and "Deutsch-Südtirol". Therefore, the lyrics never mention South Tyrol directly, referring instead to its geographical extension.

Wohl ist die Welt so groß und weit Und voller Sonnenschein Das allerschönste Stück davon Ist doch die Heimat mein Dort wo aus schmaler Felsenkluft Der Eisack springt heraus Von Sigmunds Kron der Etsch entlang Bis zur Salurner Klaus Hei di hei da hei da Ju vi val le ral le ra Hei da hei da Ju vi val le ral le ra. 2. Wo König Ortler seine Stirn Hoch in die Lüfte reckt, Bis zu des Haunolds Alpenreich, Das tausend Blumen deckt: Dort ist mein schönes Heimatland Mit seinem schweren Leid, Mit seinen stolzen Bergeshöh'n, Mit seiner stolzen Freud. 3. Im Frühling, wenn's im Tal entlang Aus allen Knospen sprießt, Wenn auf dem Schlern im Sonnenhang Der Winterschnee zerfließt: Da fühl ein eigen Sehnen ich Und halt es nicht mehr aus, Es ruft so laut die Heimat mich, Ich wandre froh hinaus. 4. Wenn in der Sommersonnwendnacht Das Feuer still verglimmt, Weiß jeder und das Herz ihm lacht: Die Kletterzeit beginnt. Von König Laurins Felsenburg, So stolz und kühn gebaut, Hab wohl von jeder Zinne Oft die Heimat ich geschaut. 5. Dann kommt mit seiner Herrlichkeit Der Herbst ins Land herein Und alle Keller füllen sich Mit Heimatfeuerwein. Man sitzt beim vollen Glase dann Und singt ein frohes Lied, Wenn in des Abends Dämmerschein Der Rosengarten glüht. 6. Das Jahr vergeht, die Zeit verrinnt Und leise über Nacht deckt's Heimatland In Berg und Tal Des Winters weiße Pracht. Zu einem kleinen Hüttlein Führt die Spur von meinen Ski, Und abends tönt vom Berg ins Tal Ganz leis die Melodie: 7. Drum auf und stoßt die Gläser an, Es gilt der Heimat mein: Die Berge hoch, das grüne Tal, Mein Mädel und der Wein! Und wenn dann einst, so leid mir's tut, Mein Lebenslicht verlischt, Freu ich mich, daß der Himmel auch Schön wie die Heimat ist! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzscHFyS-9k

A little information before you read the info: The Lied der Deutschen is not forbidden, neither the first nor any other verse of it!!! It´s a myth many people believe in. The part: "Deutschland über alles" doesn´t mean that Germany stands above other nations, you have to see it in the context of the time in 1841. Germany wasn´t an united nation, but a collection of many states and an united fatherland was meant to be above any other political goal of that time. If you continue to listen to the next lines you will see, the author doesn´t want war, violence or superiority against other nations. He demands noble deeds, to be proud of the own culture, women and freedom etc. To me it is a lovely song and I wished all 3 verses would be sung. The "Deutschlandlied" (English: "Song of Germany", German pronunciation: [ˈdɔʏtʃlantˌliːt]; also known as "Das Lied der Deutschen", or "The Song of the Germans"), or part of it, has been the national anthem of Germany since 1922, except in East Germany, whose anthem was "Auferstanden aus Ruinen" ("Risen from Ruins") from 1949 to 1990. Since World War II and the fall of Nazi Germany, only the third stanza has been used as the national anthem. The stanza's beginning, "Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit" ("Unity and Justice and Freedom") is considered the unofficial national motto of Germany, and is inscribed on modern German Army belt buckles and the rims of some German coins. The music is the hymn "Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser", written in 1797 by the Austrian composer Joseph Haydn as an anthem for the birthday of Francis II, Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and later of Austria. In 1841, the German linguist and poet August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben wrote the lyrics of "Das Lied der Deutschen" as a new text for that music, counterposing the national unification of Germany to the eulogy of a monarch, lyrics that were considered revolutionary at the time. The song is also well known by the beginning and refrain of the first stanza, "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles" ("Germany, Germany above all else"), but this has never been its title. The line "Germany, Germany above all else" meant that the most important goal of 19th-century German liberal revolutionaries should be a unified Germany which would overcome loyalties to the local kingdoms, principalities, duchies and palatines (Kleinstaaterei) of then-fragmented Germany. Along with the flag of Germany, it was one of the symbols of the March Revolution of 1848. In order to endorse its republican and liberal tradition, the song was chosen as the national anthem of Germany in 1922, during the Weimar Republic. West Germany adopted the "Deutschlandlied" as its official national anthem in 1952 for similar reasons, with only the third stanza sun ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzEH1mGv3KI
