Jörg von Frundsberg, führt uns an

Jörg von Frundsberg, führt uns an,
Tra la la la la la la,
Der die Schlacht gewann,
Lerman vor Pavia.

Kaiser Franz von Frankenland,
Tra la la la la la la,
Fiel in des Frundsbergs Hand,
Lerman vor Pavia.

Alle Blümlein standen rot,
Tra la la la la la la,
Heißa, wie schneit der Tod,
Lerman vor Pavia.

Als die Nacht am Himmel stund,
Tra la la la la la la,
Trommel und Pfeif' ward kund,
Lerman vor Pavia.

Und der euch dies Liedlein sang,
Tra la la la la la la,
Ward ein Landsknecht genannt,
Lerman vor Pavia.

@Skralinger

dabei hat er auch einen Hirnschlag erlitten worauf seine Landsknechte sich wieder beruhigten allerdings starb er an den Folgen der Meuterei

@FrisianDude There could be an easy explanation for for this (but I don't know whether it's right): Some of these songs werde made in the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century (they were really popular within the "Wandervogel"-movement). And the song-writers often didn't really care about historical correctness. I couldn't find informations about the origin of this song but this would be a proper explanation.

@kefkahkefkah I know perfectly well what the situation in Germany itself was, I just didn't think they equated any foreign leader with 'kaiser.' :P And I did not intend to post 'salty', sorry.

[kefkahkefkah]

@FrisianDude Yeah, in german, its not francis, its franz. He is not the only king to be called kaiser of his people. Kaiser Franz then. Germany had many kings at the time of this song, and the sovereig was a kaiser, and so was the highest ruler and king of other countrys called. I think the mercenarys that "sing this song" would have called the sovereign of anyother country the kaiser of that to. And its a song. Dont get salty ok.

[FrisianDude]

@kefkahkefkah no it doesn't, 'kaiser' means 'emperor.' And Francis was never emperor.

[kefkahkefkah]

@FrisianDude cause it means king
