There was once meaning...
Do you understand?
Those of you looking for the story, this isn't it its the next one, but please read on
You all know this trust me, you know the song at least, not all of it, and I'll give yall a hint. For those who go to my school, Ms. Hames played this in her classroom (at least during advisory)
So I'll give the first person 2k if they can figure out the song name, creator, and year song was made
Anyway here it is
______________________________________
Sinfonie mit Schlusschor über Schillers Ode “An die Freude” für großes Orchester, 4 Solo und 4 Chorstimmen componiert und seiner Majestät dem König von Preußen Friedrich Wilhelm III in tiefster Ehrfurcht zugeeigne
________________________________________________
Now I'll provide lyrics, but I still don't think you'll get it right off the bat

Oh friends, not these notes!
Rather let us sing more
cheerful and more joyful ones.
Joy! Joy!
Joy, thou glorious spark of heaven,
Daughter of Elysium,
We approach fire-drunk,
Heavenly One, your shrine.
Your magic reunites
What custom sternly divides;
All people become brothers
Where your gentle wing alights.
Whoever succeeds in the great attempt
To be a friend of a friend,
Whoever has won a lovely woman,
Let him add his jubilation!
Yes, whoever calls even one soul
His own on the earth's globe!
And who never has, let him steal,
Weeping, away from this group.
All creatures drink joy
At the breasts of nature;
All the good, all the evil
Follow her roses' trail.
Kisses gave she us, and wine,
A friend, proven unto death;
Pleasure was to the worm granted,
And the cherub stands before God.
Glad, as his suns fly
Through the Heavens' glorious plan,
Run, brothers, your race,
Joyful, as a hero to victory.
Be embraced, you millions!
This kiss for the whole world!
Brothers, beyond the star-canopy
Must a loving Father dwell.
Do you bow down, you millions?
Do you sense the Creator, world?
Seek Him beyond the star-canopy!
Beyond the stars must He dwell.
Be embraced, ye millions!
This kiss for the whole world!
Brothers, beyond the star-canopy
Must a loving Father dwell.
Be embraced,
This kiss for the whole world!
Joy, beautiful spark of the gods,
Daughter of Elysium,
Joy, beautiful spark of the
I'll know if you used wikipedia eek

I must say you are close, really close, but no all is wrong (the guy you mentioned is who the song is dedicated to, I only posted the first half of the song's title, the rest would give it away)

You've almost hit it perfectly ^^ only problems are you didn't select composer and you didn't put in the year

Ode to Joy by Beethoven. Date of composition was 1824 I think.

I don't know why I'm in your journal...
