Weißeritz
The Weißeritz is a river in Saxony. The 12 km short left tributary of the Elbe runs through Freital and Dresden. Its name is derived from west Slavic bystrica (wild water). The official name of the river used in documents and hydrographic maps is Vereinigte Weißeritz (United Weißeritz). The highest points of the Weißeritz watershed are at about 800 metres elevation.
The river is formed by the confluence of the Wild Weißeritz and Red Weißeritz in Freital. Nevertheless the Wild Weißeritz is the longest tributary, the watersheds of both Weißeritz rivers are almost equal in area (162.7 km² and 161.2 km²).
The Weißeritz crosses the deep valley Plauenscher Grund between Freital and Dresden and enters the Dresden Basin. The railway line from Dresden to Nuremberg runs next to the river in his close valley. The river is displaced in an old sidearm in Dresden for flood protection reasons and therefore canalised.
The Weißeritz caused heavy damages during the 2002 European floods in Dresden and Freital. The river reached Dresden Central Station as well as the Zwinger and flooded some districts of the inner city. Due to the river's high fall from 188 m to 106 m in Dresden some houses were completely destroyed in the torrential flood. The river left its canalised bed near the inner city and went through its old run directly towards the Elbe river.

A Song Of Ice And Fire
by: ArtasEis und Feuer bringt den Sieg
Schwemmt die Heuchler fort
Von dem Antlitz dieses Seins
Nur Leid und Pein
Ice and fire brings the war
The last stand of this race
Your false ideals will fall
Wiped away by planets faith
Wir sind die Boten
Hört uns an
Lauscht unsren Worten
I'm angesicht von kalten Flammen
Gilt es sich nun zu entscheiden
Falsche Werte zu vergessen
Eis und Feuer zu entfesseln
This is a song of ice and fire
A tale of war for your desire
Let the frost take your breath
Let the flames kiss the flesh
Arise from ice and fire
Fünf Reiter sind nun angekommen
Nehmen mit das Menschenkind
Ziehen es von diesem Ort
Des Menschen grauer Schreckenshort
Das Kind leg tab das Menschenfleisch
Fängt Feuer und zerbricht zu Eis
I'm angesicht von kalten Flammen
Gilt es sich nun zu entscheiden
Falsche Werte zu vergessen
Eis und Feuer zu entfesseln
Ein Lied erklingt auf goldnen Schwingen
Bringt das schwarze Blut zum Singen
Angst und Bang dir dennoch wird
Wenn gleinßend Licht durch Körper bricht
This is a song of ice and fire
Heralds downfall and the end
Of your lies and false ideals
And the fucked up human race
Wir sind die Boten
Hört uns an
Lauscht unsren Worten
I'm angesicht von kalten Flammen
Gilt es sich nun zu entscheiden
Falsche Werte zu vergessen
Eis und Feuer zu entfesseln
This is a song of ice and fire
A tale of war for your desire
Let the frost take your breath
Let the flames kiss the flesh
