The House I Live In [German translation]

What is America to me?

A name, a map, the flag I see,

A certain word, 'Democracy'.

What is America to me?

The house I live in,

A plot of earth, a street,

The grocer and the butcher

And the people that I meet,

The children in the playground,

The faces that I see;

All races, all religions,

That's America to me.
