Bravery displayed by each side 
None seeked shelter, none did hide 
Their faces directed towards foe 
Causing wounds with every blow 

Neither then or before 
Was heard of such a man 
The duke of Brabant brave in war 
Chivalry still treasured then 

Een standaard van goud en zwart 
Schitterend in de namiddagzon 
Men streed met leeuwenhart 
Bij Woeringen waar de hertog won 

A bannar of black and gold 
Rising above the battlefield 
For friend and foe to behold 
At Woeringen their fate was sealed 

"All of thee stay at my side, 
Don't withdraw, cover my flanks 
Frontal assaults I will fight 
But kill me if I break our ranks" 
Noch doen, noch eer en wert vernomen 
Riddere en geen, noch oec gesien, 

Soe condichlike ten wige wert tien, 
Alse die hertoge, alse die hertoge
