In this strophe Walther directly speaks of the Christians right of Palestine, that it's god's will. Because of that the Palästinalied is a clear crusade propaganda.
Propoganda, maybe not. He was after all an independent song writer and poem writer. The feelings in this song could be how he genuinely felt on the matter, not just a state issued saying.
To argue the point, he did write 13 entire stanzas, most of which are a kind of reflecting almost nostalgic look at the Holy Land. It's not until the end where he finally states the point of the righteousness of the crusaders.
@Mantu089 hm, man, this song was about Christian crusaders CONQUERING Jerusalem and Palestine..... and there is even a verse claiming Jews have the equal right to the Holy Land... so...
This really is an exceptionally good version of Palästinalied! The background noises really put you on the scene, so you can feel like a pilgrim reaching the Holy Land. All except the rain and thunder -- that isn't very typical, but I suppose it has to rain sometime! Imagine arriving in the bone-dry Holy Land to hit the first thunderstorm in years! Good job!
It's lovely. Very good version, I like it. Reminds me of Dead Can Dance :)

Geseier, Glocken und regen gehören aber nicht dazu.
Grausig und disharmonisch verstörend, ich mags nicht.
Das Ende geht.

@Mantu089 The song talks of other things. It indirectly wants the people for a crusade!
