The other German song that was sung (although it is Plattdeutsch) was
'Fünf Söhne'. Translation, Wolfgang/Susanne/Wilfried?

Fünf Söhne

Ick heff se nich op de Scholen gebracht
Ick heff nich ejnmal över se gelacht
Se gahnt nich speelen op de Straten
Ick heff se op de wilde See gesandt,
ehren levesten Vader to söken

De een de starv den bidderen Doht
De anner de starv von Hunger so groht
De drüdde wart gehangen
De veerde bleev op de wilde See doht
De fiefte flut achter dem Lanne

Un sa se nu op den Kerkhoff kam
Dor reip se Gott eren himmlischen Vader an
Un bedet all mit Fliete
Dat er Gott wull de Sünnen vergewen
Un halen er in sien Rike
