ОписаниеPoem, and handwritten notes by Trude Baumann giving the dates of her deportation from Prague to Theresienstadt, to Auschwitz and Oederan until she was liberated. The poem is a version of the well-known 'Buchenwaldlied' (Song of Buchenwald), but instead of 'Buchenwald' the author refers to 'Oederan', where she was imprisoned.
Concentration Camp Oederan in Saxonia
When day awakes
Before the sun smile
The columns move
To the day’s hardships
Towards the grey morning
Keep in step comrade and don’t loose your courage
Because we have the will to live in our blood
And in the heart, in our heart, much grief
Oh, Oederan I can not forget you
Because you are my destiny
Who does not know you can not imagine it
How lovely is freedom
Oh Oederan we do not want to moan
However our destiny be (is)
Despite all we want to say yes to life
One day the day will come and we shall be free
