German德语词条或短语: aus freien Stücken geblieben
I'm pretty sure this is an idiom but what does it mean?

Vor dem Ufer ankerten Segler und Dampfschiffe auf Reede, bereit beladen zu werden für den Transport in die ganze Welt. Viele ehemalige Sklaven arbeiteten auch nach der Revolution auf den Zuckerrohrfeldern. Die Arbeit war nicht leichter geworden, aber wenigstens war man *aus freien Stücken geblieben*.

On the banks anchored sail boats and steam ships on roadstead?, all ready to be loaded for transport to the whole world. Many former slaves worked on the sugar cane fields even after the revolution. The work had not grown any easier but at least *one was aus free Stücken geblieben.*

voluntarily
说明:
The idiom means "of one's own (free) will, of one's own accord, voluntarily, by one's choice.

The work hadn't gotten any easier, but at least one had remained there voluntarily.

Thanks (and mag. sabine), I wouldn't have figured that out from a literal translation..."remain out of free pieces" - where'd that originate?

they volunteered to stay on; they stayed on of their own accord


说明:
Aus freien Stücken is what I use idiomatically to say voluntarily back into German.

A ponderous way of doing it, perhaps, but maybe lighter than sich freiwillig zur Verfügung stellen etc.
