Organ Grinder(original) |
| Drüben hinter’m Dorfe |
| Steht ein Leiermann, |
| Und mit starren Fingern |
| Dreht er was er kann |
| Barfuss auf dem Eise |
| Schwankt er hin und her; |
| Und sein kleiner Teller |
| Bleibt ihm immer leer |
| 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 s gehen |
| Alles, wi es will, |
| Dreht, und seine Leier |
| Steht ihm nimmer still |
| Dreht, und seine Leier |
| Steht ihm nimmer still |
| Wunderlicher Alter |
| Soll ich mit dir gehen? |
| Willst zu meinen Liedern |
| Deine Leier drehn? |
| (translation) |
| Over behind the village |
| stands a hurdy-gurdy man, |
| And with stiff fingers |
| Does he shoot what he can |
| Barefoot on the ice |
| Does he sway back and forth; |
| And his small plate |
| Always empty for him |
| And his small plate |
| Always empty for him |
| no one 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 |
| Turns, and his lyre |
| never stands still |
| Whimsical age |
| do you want me to go with you |
| Want to my songs |
| turn your lyre? |
