Drei Männerchöre in schweizerdeutscher Mundart , opus 9

by Friedrich Niggli (1875 - 1959)

1. Das tote Lieb
 (Sung text)

Language: Swiss German (Schwizerdütsch) 
Es fahrt e Wind i d'Linde
und d'Bletter fallen ab,
se stübe gäge d'Chile,
se stüben über es Grab.

Im Fridhof duß am Mürli
do ist e chüele Platz
und under düre Blueme
do lit und schloft mi Schatz.

Es fahrt e Wind i d'Linde
und jagt 's gäl Laub dervo.
Vom Früelig und vom Summer
het mi arm Schatz nüt verno.

  • by Adolf Frey (1855 - 1920)

2. Trinklied  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Swiss German (Schwizerdütsch) 
Mer händ e Trotte zmitts im Dorf,
Wo Wi i Ströme schwillt;
Drum wämmer tapfer löte,
Bis d'Chueh e Batze gilt! 

Es macht is jo kes Loch i Chopf,
Wenn's Wibervölchli schilt;
Drum wämmer tapfer löte,
Bis d'Chueh e Batze gilt!

En andre schlüf mira i's Bett,
En andre schlarpet z'Chilt;
Hergäge mir wänd löte,
Bis d'Chueh e Batze gilt!

Trink us, du chächi Männeschar!
Schäk i!  Trink us!  Es gilt!
Jetz wämmer tapfer löte,
Bis d'Chueh e Batze gilt!
