Every right-invariant Riemannian metric on the Heisenberg group has Killing vector fields ∂x​, ∂y​+x∂z​ and ∂z​. Their Lie brackets of vector fields reproduce [X,Y]=Z and the central relations. Their flows are right translations. The dual frame of the right-invariant coframe is different and has the opposite Lie-bracket sign.
