This is a bandit song called "Wem?Uns!" from the German band Versengold. I tried a translation, to give you a clue of what they are singing. The translation is maybe abit clumsy, but anyway enjoy some Medieval Folk Music.
To Whom? To Us!
1.
Deep in the forest is our Home,
United in our band,
There we laugh at the rage of the nobles,
who intend to judge us so hard.
They tell us we’re outlaws and without any rights
And truly this might be so,
Cause free as the birds we are
And their right is nothing to us.(2x)
Refrain:
Life is just pleasant full of taking and giving,
Full of freedom, did you recognize
Against taxes, despotism, nobles and hunger in our land.
We take from the rich and give it to those to whom it always belongs
To Whom? To us!
2.
We’re not living just from the roots – My Eye!
Cause if we’re catching moneybags,
Then we help him with kicks and strokes
To let go of his load.
We’re also don’t suffer hunger or thirst,
We’re reveling here often at night,
With wine of the clerics and sausages of the nobles
And everything the day brought. (2x)
Refrain
Oh Brother of people, come joining our circle,
Oh Sister of fate, come here too,
We’re healing every wound that you gained,
And teaching you grandeur and to resist.
Stop slave away for fat people,
Escape from everyday slog,
Serfdom is behind, life is today,
Drink with us and you’ll be free. (2x)
