(RARE) Federal State of Austria Anthem - "Sei gesegnet ohne Ende" (1929-38)

"Sei gesegnet ohne Ende" ("Be Blessed Without End") was the national anthem of the First Austrian Republic (1919-1934) between 1929-1934 and the Federal State of Austria (1934-1938) that followed it. It is also known as the Kernstock-Hymne after Ottokar Kernstock who wrote its lyrics. Many Austrians favoured the melody of the imperial anthem over that of "Deutschösterreich, du herrliches Land" ("German-Austria, You Wonderful Land") and continued to sing it during the First Republic; the Kernstock-Hymne was written to give new lyrics to the old tune. Nevertheless, Austrians continued to sing different lyrics to the same tune depending on their political stance, including the words of the Kernstock-Hymne, the Kaiserhymne and "Deutschlandlied" ("Song of Germany"), the anthem of the German Reich.
German lyrics:
Sei gesegnet ohne Ende,
Heimaterde, wunderhold!
Freundlich schmücken dein Gelände
Tannengrün und Ährengold!
Deutsche Arbeit, ernst und ehrlich,
Deutsche Liebe, zart und weich!
|: Vaterland, wie bist du herrlich!
Gott mit dir, mein Österreich! :|

Keine Willkür, keine Knechte,
Off'ne Bahn für jede Kraft!
Gleiche Pflichten, gleiche Rechte,
Frei die Kunst und Wissenschaft!
Starken Mutes, festen Blickes,
Trotzend jedem Schicksalstreich!
|: Steig empor den Pfad des Glückes!
Gott mit dir, mein Österreich! :|

Lasst, durch keine Zwist geschieden,
Uns nach einem Ziele schau'n!
Lasst, in Eintracht und in Frieden,
Uns am Heil der Zukunft bau'n!
Uns'res Volkes Jugend werde
Ihren starker Ahnen gleich!
|: Sei gesegnet, Heimaterde!
Gott mit dir, mein Österreich! :|
English lyrics:
Be blessed without end,
Marvellous homeland!
Pleasantly adorn your lands
The green of trees and gold of corn!
German labour, earnest and honest,
German love, tender and soft!
|: Fatherland, how splendid you are!
God with you, my Austria! :|

No tyranny, no slaves,
Open way for every strength!
Equal duties, equal rights,
Free art and science!
Strong courage, firm gaze,
Against every stroke of fate!
|: Rise along the path of fortune!
God with you, my Austria! :|

Let, through no discord divided,
Us look upon one goal!
Let, in concord and in peace,
Us build on the boon of the future!
Our people's youth becomes
Like its strong ancestors!
|: Be blessed, homeland!
God with you, my Austria! :|
