The Wienerlied (German, literally: Viennese song, pl. Wienerlieder) or Weanaliad (viennese, pl. Weanaliada) is a traditional song genre which has its roots in Austria's capital and largest city, Vienna. Wienerlieder often center on life in Vienna. They are almost exclusively sung in Viennese German, a local Austro-Bavarian dialect. The Wienerlied is a unique musical and socio-cultural phenomenon, a psychograph of the Viennese way of life; a mix between idealism, joie de vivre and desperation.
