something like this, probably:

Lieb Vaterland, magst ruhig sein,
lieb Vaterland, magst ruhig sein,
Fest steht und treu die Wacht, die Wacht am Rhein!
Fest steht und treu die Wacht, die Wacht am Rhein!

From 1840, go back another 100 years and you get:

When Britain first, at Heaven's command
Arose from out the azure main;

And guardian angels sang this strain:
"Rule, Britannia! rule the waves:
"Britons never will be slaves."

Nice tactic, sooner or later the thick twatty Brexiter will inadvertently post something really inflammatory and racist.

... the thick twatty Brexiter ...

Well at least you're not short of self-knowledge.
