Love song waltzes
Song Cycle by Johannes Brahms (1833 - 1897)
View original-language texts alone: Liebesliederwalzer
Rede, Mädchen, allzu liebes, das mir in die Brust, die kühle, hat geschleudert mit dem Blicke diese wilden Glutgefühle! Willst du nicht dein Herz erweichen, willst du, eine Überfromme, rasten ohne traute Wonne, oder willst du, daß ich komme? Rasten ohne traute Wonne, nicht so bitter will ich büßen. Komme nur, du schwarzes Auge. Komme, wenn die Sterne grüßen.

Speak, maiden, whom I love all too much, who hurled into my once aloof heart, with only one glance, these wild, ardent feelings! Will you not soften your heart? Do you wish to be chaste and remain without sweet bliss, or do you want me to come to you? To remain without sweet bliss - I would never make such a bitter penance. So come, dark-eyes, come when the stars greet you.

Die grüne Hopfenranke, sie schlängelt auf der Erde hin. Die junge, schöne Dirne, so traurig ist ihr Sinn! Du höre, grüne Ranke! Was hebst du dich nicht himmelwärts? Du höre, schöne Dirne! Was ist so schwer dein Herz? Wie höbe sich die Ranke, der keine Stütze Kraft verleiht? Wie wäre die Dirne fröhlich, wenn ihr das Liebste weit?

The green hops vine, it winds along the ground. The young, fair maiden - so mournful are her thoughts! You - listen, green vine! Why do you not raise yourself heavenwards? You - listen, fair maiden! Why is your heart so heavy? How can the vine raise itself when no support lends it strength? How can the maiden be merry when her sweetheart is far away?

Ein kleiner, hübscher Vogel nahm den Flug zum Garten hin, da gab es Obst genug. Wenn ich ein hübscher, kleiner Vogel wär, ich säumte nicht, ich täte so wie der. Leimruten-Arglist lauert an dem Ort; der arme Vogel konnte nicht mehr fort. Wenn ich ein hübscher, kleiner Vogel wär, ich säumte doch, ich täte nicht wie der. Der Vogel kam in eine schöne Hand, da tat es ihm, dem Glücklichen, nicht and. Wenn ich ein hübscher, kleiner Vogel wär, ich säumte nicht, ich täte doch wie der.

A small, pretty bird took flight into the garden - there was fruit enough there. If I were a pretty, small bird, I would not hesitate - I would do just as he did. Malicious lime-twigs lurked in that place; the poor bird could not escape. If I were a pretty, small bird, I would have hesitated, I would not have done that. The bird came into a pretty girl's hand, and it caused him no pain, the lucky thing. If I were a pretty, small bird, I would not hesitate -- I would do just as he did.

Quite fair and contented was I previously with my life and with my sweetheart; through a wall, yes, through ten walls, did my friend's gaze recognize me; But now, oh woe, if I am with that cold boy, no matter how close I stand before his eyes, neither his eyes nor his heart notices.

Am Donaustrande, da steht ein Haus, da schaut ein rosiges Mädchen aus. Das Mädchen, es ist wohl gut gehegt, zehn eiserne Riegel sind vor die Türe gelegt. Zehn eiserne Riegel das ist ein Spaß; die spreng ich als wären sie nur von Glas.

On the banks of the Danube, there stands a house, and looking out of it is a pink-cheeked maiden. The maiden is very well-protected: ten iron bolts have been placed on the door. But ten iron bolts are but a joke; I will snap them as if they were only glass.
