Wilde Schwäne(original) |
Es zogen einst fünf wilde Schwäne |
Schwäne leuchtend weiß und schön |
Es zogen einst fünf wilde Schwäne |
Schwäne leuchtend weiß und schön |
Sing, sing was geschah |
Keiner ward mehr gesehen, ja Sing, sing was geschah |
Keiner ward mehr geseh’n |
Es zogen einst fünf junge Burschen |
Stolz und kühn zum Kampf hinaus |
Es zogen einst fünf junge Burschen |
Stolz und kühn zum Kampf hinaus |
Sing, sing was geschah |
Keiner kam mehr nach Haus', ja Sing, sing was geschah |
Keiner kam mehr nach Haus' |
Es wuchsen einst fünf junge Birken |
Schlank und grün am Bachesrand |
Es wuchsen einst fünf junge Birken |
Schlank und grün am Bachesrand |
Sing, sing was geschah |
Keine in Blüten stand, ja Sing, sing was geschah |
Keine in Blüten stand |
Es wuchsen einst fünf junge Mädchen |
Schlank und schön am Memelstrand |
Es wuchsen einst fünf junge Mädchen |
Schlank und schön am Memelstrand |
Sing, sing was geschah |
Keine den Brautkranz wand, ja Sing, sing was geschah |
Keine den Brautkranz wand |
(translation) |
Once upon a time there were five wild swans |
Swans bright white and beautiful |
Once upon a time there were five wild swans |
Swans bright white and beautiful |
Sing, sing what happened |
No one was seen anymore, yes Sing, sing what happened |
Nobody was seen anymore |
Once upon a time there were five young boys |
Proud and bold in battle |
Once upon a time there were five young boys |
Proud and bold in battle |
Sing, sing what happened |
No one came home anymore', yes, sing, sing what happened |
Nobody came home anymore |
Once upon a time five young birch trees grew |
Slender and green at the creek edge |
Once upon a time five young birch trees grew |
Slender and green at the creek edge |
Sing, sing what happened |
None was in bloom, yes Sing, sing what happened |
None were in bloom |
Once upon a time five young girls grew up |
Slim and beautiful on the Memel beach |
Once upon a time five young girls grew up |
Slim and beautiful on the Memel beach |
Sing, sing what happened |
No one wove the bridal wreath, yes Sing, sing what happened |
None wound the bridal wreath |
