Cerdans Awaken! is the former national anthem of Democratic Cerdani. The lyrics and music were both written by Limhold Reinberg.
The text and music of the song has a clear reconstruction theme. The song thematised the cheerfulness of the nation that after the cruel night they are again in sunshine and prosperity and will build a new future. Cerdans Awaken! was almost always sung and was rarely performed as an instrumental piece.
Lyrics
Cerdans awaken, rise now, for the cruel night has come to an end.
And the sun sends its rays of freedom down from the blue sky once again.
The lark sings happy songs in the valley, and the brook encourages us all.
And the farmer again cultivates his field, soon it will bloom everywhere.
Rebuild, rebuild, rebuild, rebuild, Free Cerdani, rebuild!
For a better future, we'll rebuild our home!
Rebuild, rebuild, rebuild, rebuild, Free Cerdani, rebuild!
For a better future, we'll rebuild our home!
