 Vi veri veniversum vivus vici.

«силой истины, [я], живущий, покорил вселенную».

«by the power of truth, [I], while living, have conquered the universe».

First verse of "Freisinn" is inspired by the dictum of a free-spirited Ghalghai (Ingush) highlander, who, after being told of an offer to submit to a ruler, simply replied: "Above my hat are only the stars." Second verse is derived from the Holy Quran (6:97).

Let me hold sway in my saddle!
Stay in your huts, tents!
And I ride happily into the distance,
Above my hat are only the stars.

He has set the constellations
To guide you over land and sea,
That you may delight in them,
As you gaze forever aloft.

— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, “Freisinn”
