I saw it in this WW1 song at minute 1:23
Please explain to me how it is structured. For example, "ran" is very weird to me. What is it?

Puuh. This song is hard to take. Glorifying the killing of human beings... singing of cursed frenchmen. š¤¢ I love the French people and I am proud that French people and Germans are friends meanwhile, within one generation.
But okay, I donāt know why you chose this song. I try to help you.
āRanā is the short form for āheranā.
āRanā means āgo thereā.
Ran ans Ziel = go there to the target.

@TomKruse I like military songs and words don't scare me neither make me hate others. It describes the suffering of soldiers when they are in a strange land. I didn't see it as glorifying killing people. It just describes that there are corpses and their own death. It gives me the vibes of the soldiers' own suffering. Now the hate between France and Germany is gone, there's no longer any need to ban it.
