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 |
