Der Leiermann(original) |
| Drüben hinterm Dorfe |
| Steht ein Leiermann |
| Und mit starren Fingern |
| Dreht er was er kann |
| Barfuß auf dem Eise |
| Wankt er hin und her |
| Und sein kleiner Teller |
| Bleibt ihm immer leer |
| Keiner mag ihn hören |
| Keiner sieht ihn an |
| Und die Hunde knurren |
| Um den alten Mann |
| Und er läßt es gehen |
| Alles wie es will |
| Dreht, und seine Leier |
| Steht ihm nimmer still |
| Wunderlicher Alter |
| Soll ich mit dir geh’n? |
| Willst zu meinen Liedern |
| Deine Leier dreh’n? |
| (translation) |
| Over there behind the village |
| Stands a hurdy-gurdy man |
| And with stiff fingers |
| Does he shoot what he can |
| Barefoot on the ice |
| Does he stagger back and forth |
| And his small plate |
| Always empty for him |
| Nobody likes to hear him |
| Nobody looks at him |
| And the dogs growl |
| About the old man |
| And he lets it go |
| Everything as it wants |
| Turns, and his lyre |
| never stands still |
| Whimsical age |
| Should I go with you? |
| Want to my songs |
| Turn your lyre? |
