The "Tiroler March", (also Hofer Marsch) is a march composed by Johann Strauss and dedicated to Andreas Hofer. First performed on 31 August 1848 in Innsbruck, it soon became popular among regimented marching soldiers. It has been noted that its tone is more celebratory than martial; Strauss was commissioned to write the piece to commemorate Hofer's victory at the Battle of Custoza. The song has been the national anthem of Tirol since 1921.

FIRST VERSE Comrades, let us stand together. Now we go in the name of God. With heart and hand for our land For our Tiroler land! SECOND VERSE As we march free through the valley We want to believe and to endure The enemy knows our strength Soon she will be dead BRIDGE We offer willingly our blood With free will, love and passion We fight and we die For our beautiful land For justice, truth, for our just struggle. FIRST VERSE THIRD VERSE Andreas, his eyes look through From the balcony, for us. With great honour, our Hofer From the ancestors with us CHORUS Father, poor Mother Come [join us now] for lunch Ready with us for all Let’s go its time to march FOURTH VERSE And we feel, deeply The enemy – but we do not fear Because when they shout, we silence them! FIFTH VERSE We advance, With our swords drawn they attack, They will run like hares, For they are cowards. CHORUS VERSE 6 VERSE 1
