F-Ü-I-D

Song Cycle by Ying Wang (b. 1976)

1. Schnee am Fluss
 (Sung text)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Über tausend Berge fliegen keine Vögel.
Menschenleer Zehntausend Wege.
Einsam sitzt im Boot ein Alter.
Bambushut mit breiter Krempe.
Achtet nicht auf Schnee und Kälte,
angelt ganz allein am Fluss.

2. Fette Ratte  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Fette Ratte, fette Ratte!
Bitte lass mein Korn in Ruhe!
Hast es jahrelang gefressen.
Muss jetzt endlich weiterziehen,
Ohne dich, an andren Ort.
Bitte lass mein Korn in Ruhe!
