Es lagen die alten Germanen [German drinking song][+English translation]

Based on the poem “Tacitus und die alten Deutschen” by Wilhelm Ruer from 1872, which he wrote for the beer newspaper of the Leipzig fraternity Dresdensia. Tacitus himself has never been in Germania, but he wrote a famous sadly quite short book about the Germanic people also called “Germania“.
