There he composed, together with his fellow prisoner Hermann Leopoldi, in the end of 1938 the famous anthem of the concentration camp, Das Buchenwaldlied ("The Buchenwald Song"): O Buchenwald, I cant forget about you, because you are my fate. Who leaves you, only he can appreciate how wonderful freedom is! O Buchenwald, we dont cry and complain and whatever may be our destiny, even so we shall say "yes" to life for once the day shall come when we shall be free! After an inspection by directors of the syndicate IG Farben, Löhner-Beda was denounced as working not hard enough. He was beaten to death on December 4, 1942.
