Spanish (Español) translations of Der arme Peter, opus 7

by Ludwig Leo Forwerk

1.   [sung text not yet checked]
by Ludwig Leo Forwerk , no title, op. 7 (Der arme Peter) no. 3
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der arme Peter wankt vorbei,
Gar langsam, leichenblaß und scheu.
Es bleiben fast, wie sie ihn sehn,
Die Leute auf der Straße stehn.

Die Mädchen flüstern sich ins Ohr:
"Der stieg wohl aus dem Grab hervor?"
Ach nein, ihr lieben Jungfräulein,
Der steigt erst [ins]1 Grab hinein.

Er hat verloren seinen Schatz,
Drum ist das Grab der beste Platz,
Wo er am besten liegen mag
Und schlafen bis zum jüngsten Tag.

1 Schumann: "in das"

by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
1.
Language: Spanish (Español) 
El pobre Pedro va vacilante, 
lento, pálido y huraño. 
Y se quedan inmóviles al verlo
las gentes en las calles. 

Las muchachas se dicen al oído:
“Parece recién salido de la tumba”. 
Ah, no, queridas muchachitas, 
realmente hacia la tumba va. 

Pues que ha perdido a su amada, 
su mejor lugar será la tumba, 
en donde cómodo yacerá
y dormirá hasta el juicio final.
